Lee proud of way Tigers competed

Clemson head coach Monte Lee was proud of the way his team competed Saturday night as they fought back from a two-run deficit before losing 3-2 in 13 innings.

Steven Wells’ solo home run to left field in the top of the 13th inning allowed the 15th-ranked Seminoles to down sixth-ranked Clemson, 3-2, at Doug Kingsmore Stadium in Clemson.

The home run came off Clemson closer Ryley Gilliam, who had Wells in a 1-2 count before the right fielder blasted a shot to left for the game-winning run.

The 13 innings marked the longest game Clemson has played all year.
