Amihere Named to SEC Community Service Team

COLUMBIA, S.C. – South Carolina sophomore Laeticia Amihere was named to the 2021 SEC Women’s Basketball Community Service Team, the league office announced today. It is her second appearance on the team in as many seasons.
 
With many community service opportunities limited due to COVID-19 restrictions, Amihere continued to make an impact on many aspects of the community through her work with the homeless, the underserved and children. She took leadership roles in organizing food drives for underserved communities and a drive to collect Christmas presents and pandemic-related necessities for a children’s shelter. Amihere has volunteered at Transitions homeless shelter and wrote Christmas letters for Children’s Hospital.

Amihere has also been involved in various social justice activities at the University, including overseeing various voter registration intiatives. She organized and orchestrated a campus-wide Zoom call to speak about efforts to improve campus diversity. In addition to engaging with petitions to spark systematic changes on campus, she has attended and spoken at rallies in support of changing building names.
 
The No. 5/6 Gamecocks are in action today at 1 p.m., hosting Ole Miss at Colonial Life Arena in the final home game of the season.
