Clemson celebrated all three of their home runs by dunking on a mini basketball hoop
Clemson's basketball team may have had a short run in the NIT, losing in the second round to Wichita State. Even though the school's basketball season has been over for nearly two weeks now, the spirit of the game lives on every time Clemson's baseball team hits a home run.
The Tigers hit three dingers in their 5-1 win over Louisville on Friday night and celebrated each of them with the hitter dunking a basketball on a mini hoop.
For a more dramatic take, here's catcher Kyle Wilkie after hitting the second of back-to-back homers in the fourth inning.

It's a big weekend for basketball, and it appears that the Tigers' baseball team is more than happy to get in on the fun.
Eric Chesterton is a writer for MLB.com. He is an appreciator of the stolen base, the bunt against the shift and nearly every unconventional uniform design. He eagerly awaits Jamie Moyer's inevitable comeback.
