Erik Bakich added another piece to his 2025 recruiting class earlier this week when two-way prep standout Dan Margolies announced his commitment to Clemson.
Margolies made the announcement in a social media post to X on Tuesday. He is a left-handed pitcher and first baseman/outfielder from The Cheshire Academy in Cheshire, Conn., who received preseason 2024 Rawlings/Perfect Game Underclass All-American honors.
“Excited to announce my new commitment to attend school & play D1 baseball at Clemson University. I would like to thank my family, friends, coaches & teammates! Thank you Coaches Bakich, Belanger & the rest of the Clemson baseball staff for giving me this opportunity. #GoTigers,” Margolies wrote on X.
Perfect Game lists Margolies as the 12th player to commit to Clemson in the class of 2025. Margolies joins Noonan, Ga., infielder Dax Kilby, left-hander Nicholas Frusco (Miller Place, N.Y.), right-handed pitcher and infielder Jason Fultz (Harborcreek, Pa.), right-handed pitcher and infielder Peyton Miller (Phoenix, Md.), right-hander Danny Nelson (Hershey, Pa.), catcher Skyler Hegler (Lancaster, S.C.), and right-hander and first baseman Eston Simpson (Jefferson, Ga.).
Infielder Jackson Taylor (Marietta, Ga.), right-hander Landon Fowler (Easley, S.C.), right-handed pitcher and first baseman Dylan Harrison (Fontana, Calif.) and outfielder Logan Struk (Charleston, S.C.) have also verbally pledged to the Tigers.
