🎥 TAILGATE TALKS

Tailgate Talks: Jackie Bradley Jr. — Up next on the tailgate is a man who truly needs no introduction to Carolina fans. He's the 2010 College World Series MVP, an MLB All-Star, a Gold-Glove winner, and World Series champion, but true Gamecocks only need to hear three letters: JBJ.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Seventh Inning Stretch. Gamecock baseball took down Charleston Southern 5-3 last night! The bats got hot in the seventh inning as South Carolina scored four runs. Jarvis Evans Jr. pitched 5.2 innings, allowing just two hits and no runs. The Gamecocks are 12-1 in midweek games.

🔺 Went Home Early. Gamecock softball won the final non-conference game of the regular season, run-rule style! They defeated Furman 10-0 in six innings. Karley Shelton and Arianna Rodi each had two hits to lead the offense. Jori Heard earned the win in relief after not allowing a hit or a walk.

🔺 One Of The Best. South Carolina has been selected as a Super 11 Award winner by the Football Writers Association of America! The football communications staff, led by Senior Associate Athletics Director Steve Fink, has earned this recognition three times in the last four years.

🔺 Earned It. Freshman hurdler Joslyn Hamilton has been named the SEC Women’s Freshman of the Week! She won the 400m hurdle and helped win the 4×400m relay at the Charlotte Invitational. She also placed second in the 100m hurdle. The Gamecocks will race at the East Coast Relays this weekend to close out the outdoor regular season.

🔺 We’re Hosting. The 13th-ranked men’s tennis team has qualified for its 30th NCAA Tournament in program history! They’ll host for the third time in four seasons. South Carolina will play VCU on Friday at 5 p.m.

The 26th-ranked women’s team will play in its 30th-straight NCAA Tournament. They’ll play first and second round matches at No. 5 North Carolina. The Gamecocks will play Kansas in Friday’s first round at 1 p.m.
