The Tigers regained the lead in the 40th minute, as Kimarni Smith capitalized off of a mishit from the Notre Dame defense, allowing a clear strike from Smith to find the back of the net. The goal would be the first of two on the night for Smith, as he used his signature speed to run past the Notre Dame backline and convert a long pass from Oskar Agren into a 3-1 lead.

Tanner Dieterich scored the final goal on the night for Clemson, after a delightful pass from Phillip Mayaka allowed Dieterich to convert a one-on-one opportunity for his first of the season.

Despite the firm lead by the Tigers throughout the final 45 minutes of play, the team never relented in their effort. The grit and poise that has become synonymous with the team in the 2019 season helped the squad close out their first road game of the season.
