Sept. 16, p.m. (ESPNU) Mississippi State (7-0-0) #21 Missouri (5-1-0) South Carolina opens conference play this weekend when Mississippi State and No. 21 Missouri visit Stone Stadium in the first year of the new 14-team SEC. The Gamecocks and undefeated Bulldogs will kickoff Friday at 7 p.m. before South Carolina welcomes nationally-ranked Missouri on Sunday for a match that will broadcast live on ESPNU at 2 p.m. Friday night s match will be the 14th in the series between the Gamecocks and Bulldogs with South Carolina currently in the midst of a six-match unbeaten streak against Mississippi State. However, the Bulldogs have proven unstoppable in the non-conference season and are one of seven teams remaining in the country with a perfect record. Sunday s nationally-televised meeting marks the first game between the South Carolina and Missouri. The Battle of the Columbia s marks the start of a new rivalry with Mizzou joining the SEC s eastern division this season after spending its entire history in the Big 12 from 1996 to LAST TIME OUT - SOUTH CAROLINA 3, ECU 0 Freshman Courtney Angotti-Smith scored a brace and classmate Raina Johnson added another as the freshman Gamecocks led South Carolina to a 3-0 victory against East Carolina in the non-conference finale at Stone Stadium. Angotti-Smith and Johnson scored their first career goals on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to continue the trend of strong scoring outputs by first-year players for Shelley Smith s team. Through four matches, Angotti-Smith has seven points on two goals and three assists, and the freshman class as a whole has scored seven of South Carolina s nine goals this season. Earning assists on the day were Elizabeth Sinclair, Lani Smith, Danielle Au, Coryn Bajema and Stevi Parker. The points were the first of the season for juniors Sinclair and Au. South Carolina concluded the match with a 20-2 shot advantage - allowing no shots on goal - and 9-2 edge in corner kicks. South Carolina Probable Starters # Name Pos.

The match against the Aggies will be the first SEC conference game at Ellis Field for new addition Texas A&M. SCOUTING MISSISSIPPI STATE Mississippi State brings a perfect record into Stone Stadium with an offense that is averaging over 23 shots per game and has outscored opponents 19-3 on the year. Leading the charge is true freshman Honeye Heydari (5g, 4a, 14p) and junior Elisabeth Sullivan (5g, 3a, 13p). Two Bulldogs - Dana Forbes and Morganne Grimes - have collected four assists on the season, and a total of 15 players have registered at least one point so far this season for Mississippi State. Redshirt senior Skylar Rosson returns for another season in goal and has begun strong with four shutouts and a 0.44 goals against average. SCOUTING MISSOURI Missouri enters the weekend with a record and a No. 21 national ranking after rolling through a non-conference season that included victories over No. 11 Memphis (5-1) and No. 15 California (3-2). The Tigers suffered their first loss last Thursday at Ohio State. Heading into their first SEC season, the Tigers are led by senior Taiwo Adeshigbin s four goals and nine points along with senior Haley Kretnz s league-high five assists. Sophomore McKenzie Sauerwin sports a 0.83 goals against average with two shutouts on the year. SABRINA D ANGELO RETURNS Sophomore Sabrina D Angelo missed the first four games of the season while competing for Canada at the FIFA Under-20 Women s World Cup in Japan, but the reigning SEC Freshman and Defensive Player of the Year made her return to Columbia in time for the Clemson match. D Angelo registered two saves in her first game back at South Carolina and shutout East Carolina in her second match of the season. Canada went and finished third in Group C behind North Korea and Norway. D Angelo registered 16 saves, one shutout and stopped a penalty kick against Norway in the tourney. SHUTOUT DEFENSE Defense has been the calling card for Shelley Smith s Gamecocks, and the 2012 season shows early signs of continuing that character trait despite the lack of depth at the position due to various injuries. South Carolina has posted four shutouts in its six games this season, and the team sports a 0.46 goals against average after allowing only three goals so far this season. The Gamecock defense ranks No. 22 in the NCAA in goals against average and No. 16 in the NCAA with a shutout percentage. ANGOTTI S EFFICIENCY Freshman Courtney Angotti-Smith has been a sparkplug for the Gamecock offense off the bench with two goals and three assists in four career matches played after missing the opening weekend (injury). The Goose Creek native ranks fourth in the SEC in assists per game (0.75) and seventh in points per game (1.75), numbers that rank 11th and 47th in the country, respectively.

The 2012 senior class of Dani Henry and Darien Vercillo will look to surpass those numbers with a strong year. The 2012 class currently holds a record of (.715), just 9 victories shy of setting the new record. The duo will also look to become the first class to advance to the NCAA Second Round all four years. YOUTH IN REVOLT South Carolina lost 70 percent of its scoring from last season, and the natural question coming into 2012 was where would the goals come from. If the non-conference season was any indication, the freshman class has no problem taking up that challenge with the quartet of Coryn Bajema, Courtney Angotti-Smith, Stevi Parker and Raina Johnson tallying seven of South Carolina s nine goals thus far. The other two scores have come from a sophomore (Lani Smith) and a redshirt junior (Rae Wilson). CAROLINA VS THE SEC WEST South Carolina historically has enjoyed greater success against SEC West foes than SEC East foes by the surprising note that the Gamecocks hold the series advantage against all six SEC West schools (not including newly added Texas A&M) but does not have the advantage against any of the SEC East schools. The Gamecocks are (.673) all-time against the West with series against Alabama (10-4-0), Arkansas (9-3-1), Auburn (7-5-3), LSU (8-2-5), Ole Miss (8-3- 2) and Mississippi State (7-4-2). In contrast, South Carolina is (.268) against SEC East schools. ANGOTTI-SMITH NAMED SEC FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK Freshman Courtney Angotti-Smith was named the SEC Freshman of the Week after her two-goal performance against East Carolina. Angotti-Smith came off the bench in the 23rd minute as an attacking midfielder and scored 79 seconds after subbing in for her first career collegiate goal. She also scored the final goal of the day in the 70th minute. MORE ON THE BACKLINE South Carolina ranks second in the SEC in allowing only 48 shots and 17 shots on goal through six matches, stats that undoubtedly were helped after holding East Carolina to only two shots and no shots on goal in Sunday s non-conference finale. The two shots allowed against ECU were the fewest by a team since the Gamecocks held Ole Miss to only one shot in a 3-0 victory on October 1, That match was also the last time the Gamecocks held an opponent without a single shot on frame. OVERTIME GAMECOCKS Three of South Carolina s six matches so far this season have gone to overtime, and the Gamecocks are in those fixtures. Both of Carolina s losses this season have come in extra time (Minnesota 2-1, Clemson 1-0) as Shelley Smith s team has been able to stay ahead or on even ground in every regulation match this season. However, after keeping the opponent at bay through 90 minutes in each match, the Gamecocks have yet to notch a golden goal, something that was not a problem in 2011 when South Carolina went in overtime matches. AU APPEARANCE Junior Danielle Au entered 2012 as the leading returning scorer for the Gamecocks, but it took Au six matches to hit the scorebook with opposing defenses keying on the her as the only experienced attacker on the Gamecock squad. Au registered her first point of the year assisting on Raina Johnson s goal in the 62nd minute against East Carolina. EVEN MAKEUP The Gamecocks started a lineup even across the board in both matches over the season opening weekend with three freshmen, three sophomores, three juniors and two seniors earning spots in the Starting XI. Three Gamecocks earning starting nods as freshmen were Coryn Bajema, Caroline Gray and Stevi Parker. ANGOTTI-SMITH MAKES HER DEBUT Freshman Courtney Angotti-Smith missed the season opening weekend after suffering a niggle in training, but the Goose Creek native made her debut weekend against Mercer and Jacksonville in outstanding fashion. Angotti-Smith earned 43 minutes off the bench vs Mercer and immediately made a spark for the Gamecock offense, setting up the corner kick that led to Rae Wilson s game-winning goal before adding an assist on Coryn Bajema s insurance score. Angotti-Smith then played 52 minutes and added two more assists in the Jacksonville match to give the freshman a team-leading three assists in only two career games played CAROLINASoccer -4- GAMECOCKSonline.com

Six players have combined to score South Carolina s nine goals this season. PARKER LINKS THE ATTACK Freshman Stevi Parker has been the link between the back and the front in her midfield position, but she also made her mark on the score sheet with her first career goal against Jacksonville. Parker s 53rd minute blast from the top of the 18 capped a 3-0 Gamecock victory. Parker also registered her first assist in Sunday s win against ECU. BAJEMA HONOR Freshman Coryn Bajema earned her spot as South Carolina s starter on the left wing in her first career game, and the forward has rewarded the staff s confidence in her with a team-leading three goals in four matches. Bajema s three-goal weekend against Mercer and Jacksonville led to her being named the SEC Freshman of the Week. HOME AT THE STONE South Carolina has been nearly unstoppable at Stone Stadium the past five seasons, posting a record at home since The streak included a 15-game unbeaten streak from Aug. 31, 2006-Oct. 5, 2007 and a 13-game unbeaten streak at The Graveyard from Oct. 19, Oct. 23, The lone blemishes on the record are a double-overtime loss to Vanderbilt (Oct. 7, 2007), a loss to #7 Florida (Oct. 30, 2008), two thrillers against #14/13 Wake Forest (2009 and 2011) and losses to Louisville, Kentucky, #23 Minnesota, #20 Georgia, #8 Florida and Clemson. GAMECOCKS ON TV South Carolina will appear on a TV a minimum of four times in 2012 with at least one of those games occurring on national TV, marking the sixth consecutive season that Carolina will play in front of a national audience. Carolina s home matches against Missouri (Sept. 16) and Florida (Oct. 25) will air live on ESPNU and SUN Sports, respectively, and away matches at Vanderbilt (Sept. 30) and Kentucky (Oct. 19) will air on CSS and SportSouth. The Gamecocks were a perfect last season in televised games, outscoring opponents 8-2 in those contests. GILBERT S GIVINGS Junior Gabrielle Gilbert has been the version of a utility player for South Carolina, starting matches at defender and forward in her career. The Canadian began her career on the backline, starting her first career match at right back, but has earned the starting right wing spot this season. Gilbert currently has contributed two assists, second-most on the team. RAE OF LIGHT Redshirt junior Rae Wilson missed all of the 2011 season recovering from hip surgery, but the Greenville native has started 2012 with a bang. Wilson has scored a point in each of South Carolina s last two games, registering an assist at Minnesota and hitting the game-winning goal against Mercer. The goal was the second of Wilson s career - the first coming in a three-point game at Arkansas in 2010 when she notched a goal and an assist. LANI MAKES HER MARK Sophomore Lani Smith earned the distinction of scoring the first goal of the 2012 season after her thrilling buzzer-beating goal at the end of the first half against Minnesota. Smith s goal - which was also the first of her career - came at 44:59 to tie the game at 1-1 going into halftime, but the Gamecocks dropped the match in overtime. THE TOP DRAWER TOP 100 Sophomore Sabrina D Angelo clocks in at No. 51 on the Top Drawer Soccer list of the Top 100 Upperclassmen in the nation. D Angelo is the fifth goalkeeper on the list. BETWEEN THE PIPES Senior Darien Vercillo opened the season with a shutout of UW-Milwaukee before earning a career-high four saves at Minnesota. Vercillo, who spot-started in goal in 2011, showed her leadership in the net and came up big in both matches to prevent goals on breakaways by both the Panthers and Gophers. FIRST TIME OPPONENTS South Carolina s schedule is filled with familiar faces this season with only three first-time opponent on the schedule in The Gamecocks have never played Milwaukee, Jacksonville or new SEC opponent Missouri and are currently with a season-opening draw at Milwaukee and a 3-0 victory over Jacksonville. Last season, Carolina went against first time opponents with a 1-0 double overtime victory at Arizona CAROLINASoccer -5- GAMECOCKSonline.com

The goalkeeper will miss South Carolina s first four matches (at UW-Milwaukee 8/17, at Minnesota 8/19, vs Mercer 8/23, vs Jacksonville 8/26), and may also miss the final two non-conference matches (vs Clemson 9/1, vs ECU 9/9) depending on Canada s run in the tournament. D Angelo will return to the Gamecocks in time for the SEC opener against Mississippi State at Stone Stadium on Friday, September 14.

18 Games 7-8 Sept , 2012 Mississippi State & Missouri 7 pm & 2 pm Shelley Smith 12th Season If there was ever any question about the program Shelley Smith has built, it was put away at the end of the 2011 season when Smith s South Carolina squad won its second piece of conference hardware in the past three years and advanced to its fifth consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. Smith earned both NSCAA South Region and SEC Coach of the Year honors in 2011 for the second time in three years after solidifying South Carolina as an elite conference contender and nationally-acclaimed program. The Gamecocks won the 2011 SEC regular season and eastern division titles with a record and moved to the NCAA Second Round for the third consecutive year one of only two SEC programs to do so in that span. Smith has led the Gamecocks to 75 overall and 34 SEC victories since the NCAA streak began with the 2007 season, marks that both rank second amongst the league s 12 active coaches. She guided her teams to back-to-back SEC Championship Game appearances, winning the title in 2009 and claiming second in 2010, and has seen her team play for the SEC title on the final day of the regular season each of the past three seasons, breaking through in 2011 with a 2-1 victory at No. 18 Florida. The 2011 team posted a overall mark and a program-record finish in conference play en route to the title. Smith s squad finished the season with a program-record eight-match SEC winning streak to win the league despite playing road games at the league s No. 2 (LSU), No. 3 (Tennessee), No. 4 (Florida) and No. 5 (Georgia) seeds. The record-breaking season ended with a loss to eventual national champion Stanford in a year where Smith s Gamecocks played three of the four teams in the 2011 College Cup. The squad swept the SEC postseason awards with Kayla Grimsley winning her second consecutive SEC Offensive Player of the Year award and freshman Sabrina D Angelo being named SEC Freshman of the Year, SEC Co-Defensive Player of the Year and SEC Goalkeeper of the Year in the process becoming the first player in conference history to earn two player of the year honors in the same season. Grimsley also was named a second team All- American by the NSCAA and Soccer America, while D Angelo was named a first team All-Freshman selection by the organization. Once again, the Gamecocks finished as the top defensive unit in the league in The Gamecock squad held seven of 11 SEC opponents to four shots on goal or less, and finished the regular season as the SEC s leader in nearly every major defensive category including goals against average, shots on goal allowed and points allowed. The team posted nine shutouts on the year and was led by first team All-SEC selection Ellen Fahey. Offensively, Grimsley became South Carolina s all-time leading scorer at 119 points and finished the season eighth on the NCAA active list for career points. Carolina s success has also been apparent in the classroom under Smith, who has coached 154 SEC Academic Honor Roll recipients since coming to USC in South Carolina has earned an Academic All-America selection in six of the past seven seasons, making the Gamecocks one of only three teams in the nation and the only in the SEC to achieve that feat since Even more impressive is that South Carolina is one of only two programs in the country alongside North Carolina to have a first team Academic All-America selection in three of the past four seasons. In 2011, the Gamecocks were also honored with their 10th NSCAA Team Academic Award in her tenure. Smith has coached several top student-athletes at Carolina including Ashley Kirk, USC s first four-time All-SEC honoree, Carolina s All-Americans in four-time All-SEC selection Blakely Mattern and two-time SEC Player of the Year Kayla Grimsley, and two-time All- SEC performers Melinda Carter, Jessica Julin and Sarah Lentz. Julin is currently the captain of the Finland National Team, and Carter and Mattern played in the WUSA and WPS, respectively. The Gamecocks have earned 32 All-SEC honors in the last 11 years. In her first season as head coach at Carolina (2001), the Gamecocks were the third-most improved team in the nation with an overall record. Carolina also performed well at home with a 5-3 at Stone Stadium while allowing opponents to score only four goals in eight matches. The success continued for USC in 2002 with 13 wins in Smith s second season. The year was highlighted with USC s first ever victories against Florida and Kentucky. Smith also led her team to ties against 2002 SEC champion Auburn and Eastern Division champion Tennessee. Smith led the Gamecocks to another successful season in 2003 with 10 wins including a USC record eight-game unbeaten streak as well as a record at home in Stone Stadium. The 2004 season featured a win over No. 7 Clemson, the Gamecocks first win over a ranked opponent since 1998, as well as a 6-3 mark in non-conference action. Ashley Kirk also became the first freshman soccer player in school history to be named SEC Freshman of the Year. In addition, Carolina set a school record for a home game winning streak with six consecutive wins. Following an injury filled 2005 season, the program took a big step forward in 2006 as USC went undefeated at home for the first time in school history with an mark at Stone Stadium. The team s cumulative goals against average of 0.69 was the lowest ever tallied at Carolina. The season culminated with the Gamecocks advancing to the SEC Tournament semifinals for the first time in Carolina history, as Blakely Mattern became the team s first Freshman All-America selection since Smith directed the 2007 Gamecocks to arguably the best season in school history at that time, tying the school record with 14 victories and advancing to the NCAA Tournament for only the second time in program history. Carolina posted a overall record including a mark in the SEC after beginning the season by becoming the first team ever to knock off defending national champion and top-ranked North Carolina in a season opening game at Fetzer Field in Chapel Hill. The Gamecocks ran to a start to the season - program bests for start to a season and winning streak - and peaked at No. 7 in the national polls. For the second consecutive season South Carolina advanced to the SEC Tournament semifinals after knocking off Tennessee for the first time in program history and earned the school s first bid to the NCAA Tournament since Blakely Mattern became the first sophomore to ever earn SEC Defensive Player of the Year honors in addition to becoming the first All-American in South Carolina history. Smith has cemented Carolina s position as a conference title contender and player on the national stage after guiding the Gamecocks in 2008 to their second consecutive NCAA Tournament bid and third consecutive SEC Tournament bid, both program firsts. The Gamecocks went overall and earned five SEC wins for the third year in a row with only one senior on the roster. Respected as a top defensive team, the Gamecocks finished the regular season second in the SEC with eight shutouts and ranked in the top two in every major defensive category including goals allowed, points allowed, shots allowed and shots on goal allowed. Carolina into the upper echelon of programs after Smith guided the Gamecocks in 2009 to the program s first SEC title and a berth in the NCAA Round of 16, earning her SEC Coach of the Year and NSCAA South Region Coach of the Year honors. South Carolina was a No. 2 national seed in the NCAA tournament and finished with a record, the best in school history. The Gamecocks finished as one of the top defensive teams in the nation with a school record 15 shutouts, led by Mattern on the backline who was a consensus first team All-American and Lowe s Senior CLASS Award finalist in her final season. Grimsley finished the year with 33 points and was named an honorable mention All-American by Top Drawer Soccer. The team finished eighth in the nation in average attendance. The 2010 team posted a overall mark and earned the number two seed in the conference with an record. The team advanced to the NCAA Second Round in a year that saw Grimsley earn SEC Offensive Player of the Year honors in addition to becoming the second All-American in Gamecock history and a MAC Hermann Trophy Award candidate. The Gamecocks finished as one of the top defensive teams in the country with a streak of 11 consecutive games in limiting opponents to four shots on goal or less and 10 shutouts on the year behind the efforts of Brittiny Rhoades on the backline and Patton, a Lowe s Senior CLASS Award candidate, in goal. Rhoades was named to the first team on Top Drawer Soccer s Team of the Season.
