PT Countdown, day 72: Hafnium!

Thanks O.J. Periodic Table Countdown! Join us as we count our way down to Hydrogen and the kick off of Clemson Football 2025!

Element 72 is Hafnium! Everyone's heard of hafnium, right??

Hafnium is a transition metal with symbol Hf. Its name is derived from Hafnia, the Latin word for Copenhagen, where it was discovered in 1923 by Dirk Coster, a Danish Chemist, and George Von Hevesy, a Hungarian chemist, in zirconium ores.
US Geological Survey wrote a report on Zirconium and Hafnium in the Southeastern Atlantic States, including South Carolina. https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/1082a/report.pdf (TLDR; there is Zirconium and Hafnium in South Carolina. The analyzed samples from South Carolina came from Calhoun, Clarendon, Orangeburg, Williamsburg, Dorchester, Berkeley, Georgetown, and Charleston Counties, all within or adjacent to the lower valley of the Santee River.)
As a good absorber of neutrons, Hf is used in making control rods of nuclear reactors such as those used in nuclear submarines.

I used to work for Westinghouse Nuclear Fuel around 1990-1991. We made fuel assemblies. It was a cool job.

72 Seasons Ago Clemson Football Finished 3-5-1 in 1953

After telling its previous conference to “Pound Sand,” Clemson and Maryland become charter members in forming a new conference: The Atlantic Coast Conference.
And Clemson Baseball celebrates its new conference with a No-Hitter!
Overview:
According to Wikipedia: “The 1953 Clemson Tigers football team was an American football team that represented Clemson College in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) during the 1953 college football season. In its 14th season under head coach Frank Howard, the team compiled a 3–5–1 record (1–2 against conference opponents), finished sixth in the ACC, and was outscored by a total of 172 to 139.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Clemson_Tigers_football_team
Worthy of Note:
According to ClemsonWiki:
“May 8: The Atlantic Coast Conference is founded, at the Sedgefield Inn near Greensboro, N.C., with seven charter members : Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest. The seven schools withdraw from the Southern Conference early that morning, during the Southern Conference's annual spring meeting.
…
June 14: The seven charter members meet in Raleigh, N.C., where a set of bylaws is adopted and they take the official name of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
…
October 3: In the first Atlantic Coast Conference game that Clemson plays, number three-ranked Maryland blanks the Tigers, 0-20, in a night game in Memorial Stadium. The Terps will go 10-1, and win the National Championship - their only title through 2011.
October 9: The Tigers lose night game at Miami (Florida), 7-39. The field at the Orange Bowl was muddy and torn up due to recent torrential rains and a heavy high school schedule.”
https://clemsonwiki.com/wiki/1953
ClemsonTigers.com adds the following:
“May 8, 1953 – Clemson joined the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Oct. 31, 1953 – Clemson won its first ACC game in history, 18-0 over Wake Forest in a contest played at Clemson.”
https://clemsontigers.com/clemson-football-historical-timeline/
According to Wikipedia:
“End Dreher Gaskin and tackle Nathan Gressette were the team captains. The team's statistical leaders included quarterback Don King with 706 passing yards and 243 rushing yards and Dreher Gaskin with 30 points scored (5 touchdowns).
Three Clemson players were named to the 1953 All-South Carolina football team: Dreher Gaskin, Nathan Gressette, and Don King.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Clemson_Tigers_football_team
Clemson QB Don King won the Boston Gridiron Club’s “Swede Nelson Award for Sportsmanship.” Apparently, he won the award for looking out for another team’s player, Wake QB Sonny George.
According to ClemsonTigers.com:
“In the third quarter, Wake Forest had the ball at midfield trailing Clemson 12-0 when Demon Deacon quarterback Sonny George failed to get up after being tackled. As the minutes passed and the Demon Deacon players and coaches along with the game officials gathered around the injured George, the Tiger starters watched from their end of the field.
Ultimately, King, a quarterback and safety, walked over to the scene and visited for a minute or so before returning to his teammates. Shortly afterwards, the game resumed with George at quarterback. Clemson played one of its better games of the season that Halloween Day in winning by a score of 18-0.
It was not until Monday morning when Tiger starting linemen Mark Kane and Clyde White stopped by my office that I found out what happened.
“When Don came back from talking to the Wake Forest people, he told us that Sonny George was their only quarterback and he had a bad knee, his ‘bum’ knee that had caused him to miss the Miami game and much of the South Carolina game,” the pair said. “So, Don said to us, ‘if you tackle him the rest of the game, hit him high.'”

It’s True: A Clemson Man Needs No Introduction!
Results:
September 19 Presbyterian* W 33–7 September 26 at Boston College* T 26–26 October 3 No. 3 Maryland L 0–20 October 9 at Miami (FL)* L 7–39 October 22 at South Carolina L 7–14 October 31 Wake Forest W 18–0 November 7 at No. 6 Georgia Tech* L 7–20 November 14 at The Citadel* W 34–13 November 21 No. 14 Auburn* L 19–45

After losing in Columbia, Clemson’s series record against the Gamechickens drops to 29-19-3
Also in 1953:
According to ClemsonTigers.com:
“May 8, 1953 – Billy O’Dell pitched a no-hitter in a 2-0 win over South Carolina. That same day, Clemson officially joined the newly-formed Atlantic Coast Conference.”
https://clemsontigers.com/clemson-baseball-timeline/
The Korean War (uh, Korena Conflict?) ends.
According to Wikipedia:
“Virtually all of Korea's major cities were destroyed. No peace treaty has been signed, making the war a frozen conflict.”

There were some good ACC teams for the inaugural conference season. Clemson had a rough schedule to start a new conference!

Todays player spotlight is #72 Rowan Byrne. He is a true freshmen offensive linemen for the 2025 Clemson Tigers.
He was “Ranked as the top player in the state of New York by Rivals, which also ranked him as a four-star prospect and as the 17th-best guard in the country … ranked as the No. 1 player in New York by Prep Redzone … ranked by 247Sports as the fifth-best player in New York and the 59th-best player at his position … ranked by ESPN as the 10th-best player in New York and the 50th-best at his position … ranked by On3 as the 10th-best player in New York”. He also “was a two-time all-league, all-county and all-state selection at Iona Prep … CHSFL Lineman of the Year finalist … led Iona Prep to the 2024 New York Catholic state title”.
Here’s what Rowan had to say about his commitment to Clemson, “It really came down to the culture and fit at Clemson. I fit in so well with the players there - the family feel between everyone there is unmatched. I know Clemson is a place I will be developed in all aspects and to fit in that well there it just made sense for me to go to Clemson. There wasn’t a reason I could think of not to go to Clemson.".
Here is an article from Tigernet talking about Rowan: https://www.tigernet.com/clemson-football/story/newest-clemson-ol-ready-to-get-things-rolling-once-he-steps-foot-on-campus-22747
