It marked Clemson’s 15th no-hitter all-time and its first in an ACC game since 1976. Knaak was in command from the start, tying career highs with 12 strikeouts and 7.1 innings pitched. The sophomore didn’t allow a hit, issued three walks, and hit one batter on 112 pitches to improve to 8-1.

The Tigers final regular season series of 2025 gets off to a good start as Knaak, Allen and Mahlstedt dominate on the mound.

It was the Tigers ’ 15th no-hitter in program history and their first since 2009, when five pitchers blanked USC Upstate. This one was far more tightly contested, with Clemson’s trio combining for 13 strikeouts and allowing just four baserunners on walks and a hit-by-pitch.
