Columbia, S.C. – The University of South Carolina men’s soccer team has scheduled this year’s Alumni Weekend for April 12-14. The annual golf tournament is slated for Friday, April 12 at noon at the Crickentree Golf Club. The cost is $50 per player and all participants are asked to register with coach Paul McDonough in advance at (803) 777-7911.
br> Following the golf tournament, a dinner buffet at Seawell’s will be provided for $20 per person. The buffet will begin at 7:30 p.m. Alumni are requested to call or email the soccer office ((803) 777-7911 or paulm@gwm.sc.edu) to make reservations for dinner.

During the evening program, Bill Lauritzen will be recognized in a unique roast format hosted by Roy Dunshee. Everyone wishing to ‘roast or toast’ Lauritzen is asked to make a donation to the ‘hat’ for a gift for him which will allot you a specific amount of time. Bring some funds and have fun recognizing one of the most beloved members of our Gamecock soccer family.

The alumni weekend will wrap up with an alumni soccer match at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 13. A post game reception is planned for the Keg O’ Nails restaurant on Rosewood Drive.
