Clemson, SC - With both teams playing a physical, tight first half, Clemson took a 10-7 lead into halftime vs. the Greenville Griffins on a chilly friday night at home. However, the Tigers found the try zone early on in the second half and were able to ride an excellent defensive effort to a gutsy 25-7 victory. The JV squad made it 2 for 2 on the season as well, with an excellent display in a 45-5 win over Greenville B. Match Report to Follow...
