Clemson Men’s Basketball Holds First Annual Tiger Wonderland

Dec. 15, 2009

Head Coach Oliver Purnell and the Clemson men’s basketball team hosted the first annual Tiger Wonderland in Littlejohn Coliseum on Monday, December 14. Tiger Wonderland was sponsored by Bi-Lo, a generous supporter of Clemson Athletics.

Each Clemson basketball player was paired up with a child from Clemson Community Care. Each buddy group spent a magical night in Littlejohn performing crafts, eating Christmas cookies and hot chocolate, enjoying their favorite meal and visiting Santa. Bi-Lo provided presents and gift bags full of food for each child that participated.

“This night was so special for all the children that were involved as well as our basketball team. We loved being able to provide a Merry Christmas to the children from Clemson Community Care,” said Coach Purnell.
