Clemson returns 15 letter winners from the 2023 roster, including three players that were All-ACC selections, and added two transfers to bolster the roster in Alex Brown and Lindsey Garcia.

The Tigers held a .313 batting average in 2023 led by Valerie Cagle (.469). Clemson also had a .409 on-base percentage and a .527 slugging percentage.

Clemson's pitching staff returned every pitcher from 2023 and added freshmen Olivia Duncan and Julia Knowler to the rotation. In 2023, the Tigers held a 1.59 ERA through 392 innings of work and had 318 strikeouts.

In only the fifth season of the program, Clemson will face off against Missouri State, Oregon and Missouri for the first time while taking on Indiana for the first time since 2020 and Liberty for the third-consecutive season.
