🔺 Upset Season. Gamecock men’s soccer downed No. 11 UNCG 2-1 on Saturday night! This was South Carolina’s first road win against a ranked opponent since defeating No. 1 UCF in 2023. Ethan Ballek and Loic Sany Kong scored the Gamecock goals.
🔺 True Grit. Gamecock volleyball defeated No. 25 North Carolina 3-2 on Friday. It was their first win over a ranked opponent this season. Nia Hall led South Carolina with 18 kills, followed by Victoria Hill with 17. Victoria Harris led the defense with 22 digs and added three assists. The Gamecocks will conclude non-conference play tonight when they host Wofford at 7 p.m.
🔺 Perfection. The women’s tennis team started the fall season with five wins on the first day of the Debbie Southern Furman Fall Classic! On Saturday, they won every match they played in, having a perfect day. Kaitlyn Carnicella and Bella Bergqvist Larsson finished the weekend with titles in Flight 1 and Flight 2 singles.
🔺 Moving On. No. 11 Gamecock football fell to Vanderbilt 31-7 to start SEC play on Saturday night. Quarterback LaNorris Sellers was knocked out of the game in the second quarter after a helmet-to-helmet hit that resulted in targeting. Luke Doty replaced him and went on to throw for 148 yards and rush for 40. Rashul Faison scored the lone Gamecock touchdown in the first quarter. South Carolina will hit the road to No. 23 Missouri for the Mayor’s Cup Battle on Saturday.
