🎥 THE STORY

The Story: Brotherly Love — Just about every team in the country tries to make their locker room feel like a family, but few truly accomplish it. In Columbia, when Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks preach "family," it goes further than a figurative slogan. For the Kilgores and Sellers, bringing their brotherly love to the collegiate level is a dream come true.

The sophomore had an outstanding freshman season with the Gamecocks, earning All-American honors from multiple publications, plus SEC Co-Freshman of the Year. She finished the 2024-25 season with four top-five finishes in six stroke play starts in the spring.
