Olympic gold medalist and 2013 Clemson graduate Brianna Rollins will run down The Hill prior to the team entrance to celebrate her gold medal at the 2016 Olympics.

Rollins won a gold medal for the women's 100-meter hurdles with a time of 12.48 in lane six at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The United States swept the top three in the event with Brianna Rollins, Nia Ali, and Kristi Castlin for the first time in Olympic history.

Rollins is Clemson's first-ever female athlete to win an individual gold medal at the Olympics according to Clemson SID Tim Bourret. She is also Clemson’s first individual gold medalist in any Olympic event since Shawn Crawford won the men’s 200 in Athens, Greece in 2004.
