Gamecock Soccer Back In Action This Week

COLUMBIA, S.C. —- South Carolina men’s soccer returns to the pitch in continuation of the 2020 season as it plays host to Lander in an exhibition on Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. The match will not be open to the public, but a free live stream will be available through gamecocksonline.com.
 
The Gamecocks (3-2) are set for 12 more regular season matches this season, eight of which will come at home. South Carolina’s opponents come into the spring with a 6-7 record as UAB (1-6) and Kentucky (5-1) were the only other schools on the schedule to play matches this past fall.
 
Conference USA announced this past fall that there will not be a conference tournament. 
 
Per South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster’s Executive Order of July 29, 2020, stadiums and athletics venues were permitted to open and exceed the order’s guidelines if the department “can satisfactorily demonstrate an ability to comply with federal and state COVID-19 procedures and protocols to the Department of Commerce.”
 
Fans can expect full details on ticketing information this upcoming Thursday.
 
South Carolina men’s soccer will be honoring legendary head coach Mark Berson throughout the spring as he’s set to retire after 43 years leading the program. He is the winningest active coach in NCAA Division I men’s soccer and one of only four coaches in Division I history to achieve 500 wins. Under his direction, South Carolina has earned 21 NCAA Tournament appearances in 42 seasons. The Gamecocks have been to four NCAA Quarterfinals, two College Cups, and one College Cup Final. They have advanced to the second round 13 times.
