CLEMSON, S.C., Nov. 24 (UPI) -- Cliff Hammonds scored 17 points and grabbed seven rebounds Saturday, leading No. 22 Clemson's 96-67 rout of tiny Gardner-Webb.

Clemson went on an 8-0 spurt after the losers stayed within 26-22 with nine minutes left in the first half. The lead swelled to 53-36 at the half, and the rout continued in the second 20 minutes.
