Clemson Baseball adds future first baseman from the transfer portal

Collin Priest was a Freshman All-American in 2023 by Baseball America for the Michigan Wolverines. He had 11 home runs and 30 RBIs.

Following the season, Priest entered the transfer portal. Now, he has announced his destination.

Priest will join head coach Erik Bakich and the Clemson Tigers for the 2024 season.

Priest will have three seasons of eligibility remaining. He will be the presumed starter at first base in 2024.

Indiana State outfielder Dominic Listi announced his transfer to Clemson last week.

Clemson Softball adds another transfer

Baseball wasn’t the only active program this weekend, as Clemson Softball also added a transfer.

Winthrop pitcher Reese Basinger announced her transfer to the Tigers last week.
