Clemson softball throttled Louisville 8-0 on Saturday, giving the Tigers their first ACC series victory of the season and improving their record to 21-9.
Capped off by an Alia Logoleo RBI, Clemson left Stuart McWhorter Stadium in the fifth inning on a run-rule victory. The Tigers finished the game with 11 team hits, two of which were home runs from center fielder McKenzie Clark. Meanwhile, the Cardinals struggled to get on base as they had two hits.
Last season’s ACC player of the year, Valerie Cagle, dominated in the circle against the Cardinals and had seven strikeouts. The sophomore now has 96 strikeouts on the season in 80.1 innings pitched.
With Saturday’s win over Lousiville, the Tigers now carry momentum as they host Louisville in game three of the series on Sunday at noon.
