CLEMSON, SC - The Tigers got off to a great start to the 2026 season, sweeping Army over the weekend. The pitching and defense were outstanding in all 3 games.

Freshman Dylan Harrison was phenomenal in 4.1 innings of relief, and Joe Allen earned his first win out of the pen. Nate Savoie was the hero, doubling in the game-winning run in the 8th inning.
