Once again, Clemson Athletics is encouraging all Tiger fans to show their spirit and wear orange for the One Clemson…Solid Orange event, as Head Coach Chuck Kriese’s men’s tennis team plays host to the University of South Carolina. Clemson teams are currently 10-2 in 2003-04 One ClemsonŠSolid Orange events.

During the 2003-2004 season, at selected events, an additional fee is applied to each game ticket sold for the designated One ClemsonŠSolid Orange event. The proceeds from the One Clemson event will be used for specific One Clemson academic efforts. The One Clemson concept recognizes the strength of unity in everything we do as a University. The One Clemson Fund supports the University’s academic goals that will further enhance the ability of Clemson University to make for a stronger South Carolina and nation.

To date, the Clemson University Athletic Department has generated $ 39,015 for the One Clemson Fund. At the final One ClemsonŠSolid Orange event of the year, the April 7th baseball game against the University of South Carolina, a check will be presented to Clemson University.
