Clemson Baseball has received a new verbal commitment from a 2025 prospect.
Daniel Margolies announced that he will play college ball for Erik Bakich at Clemson on X.
Margolies is from Cheshire, Connecticut.
He is a left-handed pitcher who also plays first base and outfield at The Cheshire Academy.
Excited to announce my new commitment to attend school & play D1 baseball at Clemson University. I would like to thank my family, friends, coaches & teammates! Thank you Coaches Bakich, Belanger & the rest of the Clemson baseball staff for giving me this opportunity. #GoTigers pic.twitter.com/tjBGUXjCYK

He is beginning his senior season of high school baseball and will join the Tigers for the 2026 season.
Other news and notes from around Clemson athletics:
At ACC Kickoff, the school can pick players to attend but the press can also select players. This season, the press requested DJ Uiagalelei from Florida State.
DJU attended the Kickoff twice when he played for Clemson but has declined to appear this year. He released his reasoning on X.

This is a respectful gesture that will probably play well in the locker room. CBS’s Dennis Dodd confirmed that this was DJ’s decision and not the university’s.
I also think DJU would prefer to avoid the litany of questions that would come about the Seminoles’ Week 6 matchup against his former team. I can’t blame him if that is the case. It will be one less distraction for everyone.
