Would that be Exorna? It is a gorgeous semp. Hen and Chicks (Sempervivum 'Exorna')
I would definitely get them out of the soggy soil and clean any rotting/mushy parts off. Then let dry for a few days, in the garage would be a good place to do that. Dry, but cool.
Then if they appear healthy plant them in a nice fast draining soil mix. I'm not sure I would water them though. Think I would just let them be for now. Place in a bright place outside, protected from the rain.

Take before and after photos for us Sherri. Thumbs up
