Clemson, SC
Monte Lee and Clemson baseball welcomed the media today for a preview of the 2019 Clemson Tigers baseball team as they opened “fall camp” for the 2018-19 school year. Coach Lee mentioned how important it was for the Tigers to take advantage of these next 45 days.
Development of the veterans on this roster and seeing how the newcomers acclimate to the team are at the fore-front of the coaches interest as camp opens today. Lee discussed several players being moved in and out of roles they had not been in position wise in the past, to how the Tigers replace the bats lost to the “League” with the departures of Seth Beer and Chris Williams.
Look for complete season coverage from Clemson Sports News this spring when the Tigers hit the Diamond in search of an ACC Championship and a return to Omaha and the College World Series.

Tigers Begin Fall Practice
CLEMSON, S.C. – The 2019 Tigers begin fall practice this weekend, as fourth-year head coach Monte Lee has 22 returning lettermen. Clemson is coming off the 2018 season when it won the ACC Atlantic Division title and had its most wins (47) since 2006.
The fall practice season continues through October and concludes on the first weekend of November with three Orange & Purple Scrimmages at Doug Kingsmore Stadium.
A new NCAA rule allows for two scrimmages against outside competition in the fall. The Tigers travel to SRP Park in North Augusta, S.C., on Oct. 13 to play Georgia Southern at 1 p.m. Then on Oct. 27, Clemson hosts Coastal Carolina at Doug Kingsmore Stadium at 1 p.m.
All practices and scrimmages at Doug Kingsmore Stadium are free and open to the public.
