This was received from Associate Head Coach Jamie Smith of the University of South Carolina women's soccer program:Please come out and support your Gamecock Women's Soccer Team in their final home regular season match of the season, as the #17 Gamecocks (14-3-2) host #8 Florida (14-2-2) for the Southeastern Conference Regular Season Championship! Don't miss out on the chance to see your Gamecocks crowned SEC Regular Season Champions!
* It is Senior Night for Brittiny Rhoades, Brooke Jacobs, Mollie Patton, Maddie Kill and Maggie Blackwell and I am sure they would appreciate the support.
* It is High School Night - there was an invitation that went out a while back to all HS coaches to bring their teams - all interested can contact Josh Waters at
waters5@mailbox.sc.edu or (803) 777-5567 for the $1 tickets.
* Finally this is a special night for Shelley and I as we will be honoring Jill Darr Rowell at halftime who lost her battle with Leukemia this past spring. It is our goal to raise awareness for Leukemia/Lymphoma and let people know how they can help - we had no idea about what "we" could do until we were educated through Jill and Rich. Since we have been touched by this disease - we continue meet more people who have been affected - so this night is for everyone. Rich Rowell and his family will be here as well as Jill's family from Gainesville. I have attached a separate press release for you to use how you see fit. I know that Jill and Rich had many connections from living and coaching here in Columbia as well as attending USC so we hope to get the word out asap.
Thank you again for all your support this season. Hopefully this is not our last home game even though it ends the regular season. Shelley and I hope that we can thank you all in person sometime in the near future. Maybe you can share in a celebration this Friday - who knows ...
Jamie
