AgSouth Homegrown Athlete of the Week – Jaron Blossomgame

Jaron Blossomgame, Men’s Basketball, Redshirt Freshman, Alpharetta, GA

Blossomgame was named Rookie of the Week by the Atlantic Coast Conference following his performance in the Tigers’ win over No. 16/13 Duke on Jan. 11. He posted his first career double-double against the Blue Devils, producing career highs in points (14), rebounds (14), field goals (5), three-point goals (2) and minutes (35). His 14 rebounds were a high in 2013-14 by any ACC freshman, and also the most by a Clemson freshman since Chris Hobbs pulled down 15 against The Citadel in 2000. In addition, Blossomgame did not have a turnover in his 35 minutes of play against the Blue Devils.
