McQueen, a Florence, S.C. native and Wilson High School alumna signed with Clemson in April 2024 after spending the previous two seasons at Alabama. The 2023-24 season was statistically the best season of McQueen’s career as she averaged 10 points, three assists, and three rebounds per game.
POPPIE’S THOUGHTS
“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Loyal and her family back home. I’ve known Loyal for quite some time as I recruited her at an early age while I was at Virginia Tech. She’s one of those I’ve always watched and been a fan of from afar due to how strong our relationship was during the initial recruiting process. As Loyal and I reconnected in this process, our relationship together grew even tighter. I believe she is a perfect fit here at the perfect time. She has had a phenomenal college career up to this point, but I truly believe she has so much more to accomplish. I’m thrilled to add her experience and playmaking ability to our backcourt. With that said, I’m confident the Clemson family and the state of South Carolina will be proud of how Loyal will represent our program on and off the court as we welcome her back HOME.”
