Gamecocks Tip-Off: No. 1 South Carolina Set to Face Michigan in Season Opener

Las Vegas, NV — It’s college basketball season, and the top-ranked South Carolina Gamecocks are ready to begin another year of dominance. The reigning national champions open their season in Las Vegas, taking on Michigan in a highly anticipated matchup.

Following a historic 2023-24 campaign, where they clinched the SEC regular-season title, SEC tournament title, and national championship, South Carolina aims to defend its No. 1 spot. Head coach Dawn Staley has retained 9 of the 11 players from last season’s championship roster, including SEC Tournament MVP MiLaysia Fulwiley, setting high expectations for another successful season.

For Michigan, the season opener presents a rare challenge, as it marks only the second time in program history they face the nation’s top-ranked team. The Wolverines closed the 2023-24 season with a 20-14 record, featuring notable wins over ranked Big Ten opponents. Key returner Jordan Hobbs (9.8 ppg, 4.2 rpg) and five-star freshman Syla Swords, fresh from competing in the 2024 Olympics with Canada, will look to make a statement in the season debut.
