Clemson women's basketball signed the highest-rated recruit in program history on the first day of the early signing period Wednesday: Imari Berry.

Berry, a 5-foot-10 guard out of Clarksville High School in Tennessee, is a five-star prospect and the No. 13 player in the class of 2024 per ESPN HoopGurlz. She committed to Clemson in August and signed her letter of intent Wednesday.

As a junior at Clarksville last season, Berry averaged 26.1 points, seven rebounds, three assists and four steals per game and set a school record for most points in a season with 836. Her senior season begins this month.

Berry will join Clemson's previous highest-rated recruit when she arrives on campus. In the class of 2022, the Tigers signed Ruby Whitehorn, a five-star and McDonald's All-American who was the No. 15 player in her class. Whitehorn was named to the ACC All-Freshman team last season after starting 33 games and scoring 9.5 points per game.

In addition to Berry, Clemson signed 6-2 forward Morgan Miller out of Andover, Minnesota. Miller has scored 12 point per game in 28 contests for Andover High School, according to stats from the Star Tribune.
