Clemson Women’s Basketball Opens ACC Play on the Road Against Wake Forest

The Clemson Tigers women’s basketball team kicks off ACC action this weekend with their first true road game of the season, traveling to Winston-Salem to face the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

Tip-off is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. and will be broadcast live on the ACC Network, featuring commentary from Brooke Weisbrod and Angel Gray. Fans can also tune in via 105.5 The Roar or the Clemson Tigers app, with William Qualkinbush and Faxon Childress calling the game. Historically, Clemson has a strong record against Wake Forest, leading the all-time series 56-27 and sweeping last season’s matchups.

The Tigers enter the matchup with a 6-3 record, propelled by a dominant defensive performance. Clemson’s defense is allowing just 53.9 points per game, ranking fourth in the ACC and 23rd nationally. On the boards, the team is excelling, averaging nearly 30 defensive rebounds per game (23rd in the nation) and maintaining a +9.2 rebounding margin. In their six wins this season, Clemson has held opponents to 52 points or fewer.

Offensively, the Tigers are unbeaten when scoring 60+ points and shooting over 40% from the field.

Key Players to Watch

McQueen recently set a personal best with 10 assists in a victory over Radford.
  • Mia Moore: A junior transfer from UAB, Moore has been instrumental in the Tigers’ success. She is the team’s second-leading scorer (12.1 points per game), second-leading rebounder (6.4 rebounds per game), and top three-point shooter, hitting over 40% from beyond the arc (minimum 25 attempts).
