South Carolina releases SEC baseball schedule
South Carolina now knows its conference schedule and the Gamecocks’ road through SEC play.
And it’s not an easy one.
The Gamecocks have home series against Tennessee, Florida and Missouri from the East while LSU and Auburn come to Founders Park from the West.

South Carolina will also hit the road for SEC East matchups at Vanderbilt, Georgia and Kentucky. The Gamecocks will also play at Arkansas and Mississippi State.
The SEC slate includes two teams that made the College World Series last year—Auburn and Arkansas—with series against another Super Regional team in Tennessee.
LSU is also expected to contend for the No. 1 spot in the country while Florida hosted a regional last season. Georgia and Vanderbilt were also tournament teams.
South Carolina is coming off a 27-28 season (13-17 SEC), the program’s first losing season since 1996. There is plenty of change going on with the program with a flux of newcomers in the recruiting class and out of the portal.
The Gamecocks’ portal class is a strong one, including a few high-level hitters, with some potentially big impact bats in the recruiting class as well.
South Carolina also brought in Monte Lee to replace Chad Caillet as recruiting coordinator and associate head coach.
Fall scrimmages begin next Thursday.
