Quote from Head Coach Aaron Rushing:
Clip is a very analytical player who will likely have a long career in sports after Carleton. He's a solid member of the pitcher-only group and has the distinction of being one of the few pitchers in college baseball history who recorded three decisions on the same day, winning two games and losing one.
