Series History
Wednesday's meeting between USC Upstate and Clemson marks just the second all-time meeting between the two programs since Upstate joined the Division I ranks prior to the 2007-08 season. The Tigers won the only meeting in the series, 78-65, on December 15, 2009. In the game, Chelsea McMillan headlined a group of three Spartans in double-figures, posting a double-double with 20 points and 16 rebounds.
 
 
Players to Watch
Upstate: Returning after leading the Spartans in nine statistical categories a season ago, including scoring, averaging 12.5 points per game, senior guard Denijsha Wilson is one of five key veterans on a very young Upstate squad. In addition to leading the team in scoring, she also paced the squad in assists (54) and steals (28) while playing a team-high 31.5 minutes per game.
 
Clemson: Averaging 16.4 points per game last season—the highest scoring average for a Tiger since 2003-04—Delicia Washington represents Clemson's top returner. The preseason All-ACC pick also led the Tigers in assists (88) and minutes per game (27.2) while finishing second on the team in rebounding (6.0).
