Brandon Rink

Assoc. Editor / Staff Writer for TigerNet

Brandon has covered Clemson and ACC sports online and in print for over 15 years. Before joining TigerNet, he worked as a multimedia journalist on Clemson, Anderson University and more sports over a seven-year run at the Anderson Independent Mail, earning multiple South Carolina Press Association and Scripps Newspaper honors for work in Tigers coverage. Rink also covered ACC football, basketball and baseball with outlets like Raycom Sports and Southern Pigskin, as well as a couple independently-owned websites.

Sportswriter life outside of Clemson home games has included trips to the College Football Playoff national championship, multiple ACC Championship games and bowls, almost every ACC football field, the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight, Duke's Cameron Indoor Stadium and ACC Tournaments in basketball, and multiple ACC and NCAA baseball tournaments. An ex-military brat, the Anderson University (Communications: Mass Media '10) grad's pro team allegiances are spread across the country, but you'll probably find him in San Francisco Giants, Atlanta United or U.S. soccer gear most days.
