You wouldn’t have known it was a scrimmage had you looked into the crowd and gazed at the mass of people who all turned out to support the Gamecock volleyball team Saturday.
With redshirt sophomore Perry Orth and redshirt freshman Connor Mitch jostling for the distinction of backup QB, it doesn’t look as though Spurrier will make a decision until he absolutely has to.
Despite going undrafted, Shaw has been one of the most closely followed rookies to come out of South Carolina in recent memory.
The days that sisters Kellie and Taylr McNeil have spent playing volleyball together can be traced back years, to a volleyball net in a backyard over 1,200 miles away from USC.
Last season, Kurtis Turner led the South Carolina men’s soccer team in assists, started all 19 of games he played in and earned a spot on the Conference USA All-Freshman team.
Will Murphy has acquired a skill that is very important to achieve success in golf: a short memory. Just a few months ago at the NCAA men’s golf championship, the then-junior was in a solid position to lead the Gamecocks to qualify for the match play portion of the championship.
Hopping on any bandwagon seems to get a bad rap nowadays. Maybe Miami Heat fans are to blame, or maybe those on the wagon no longer want to share the glory with new arrivals. But what if someone gets on the bandwagon, climbs to the front and steers it to new heights?
Earlier this month, in the form of a federal judge’s ruling, common sense prevailed in college athletics for the first time in a long time.

If the Gamecocks’ 7-7-5 record from a year ago strikes you as unimpressive, head coach Mark Berson thinks you should look again. A quartet of road losses to open up the season paired with a number of key injuries threw much of Berson’s freshman class into the fire early in the year. But he thinks the team is better for it. “We got off to a slow start, but I think what I was most pleased about with the group last year was their mental toughness,” Berson said.
The demeanor of the women’s soccer team immediately shifts when any mention of the Stanford game occurs.
As much as we would like to believe it, Carolina isn’t the only team out there. Here are some other games every college football fan should watch this season.
I love college football. I really do. Waking up to watch College Gameday and spending the afternoon watching football with my dad are some of the best memories I have from my childhood.
Check out these athletes and cheer on Gamecock sports this year!
South Carolina’s volleyball roster is top heavy with players who have one or less years of collegiate playing experience.
