Clemson-South Carolina game time moved up Saturday |
CLEMSON, S.C. — Clemson
University men’s basketball’s home game on Saturday in Littlejohn Coliseum against South Carolina has been moved up to 6 p.m. The cancellation of an earlier game, announced late Friday afternoon, allowed the time slot to open, and Clemson and South Carolina mutually agreed to the time change. The game will still air on ACCN (TV) and on the Clemson Athletic Network (radio).
Tickets previously purchased for the 8 p.m. tip are valid. Tickets are still available beginning at $25. Halftime entertainment includes the world-renowned Red Panda act.
