Three from South Carolina softball announce transfers

South Carolina softball’s season came to an end last weekend when the Gamecocks fell to UCLA twice in the Los Angeles Regional, and the push towards 2027 has already begun.

Ashley Chastain Woodard and her staff were holding exit meetings this week, and as of Saturday afternoon, three players have announced their intentions to enter the transfer portal.

Junior pitcher Nealy Lamb, freshman pitcher KG Favors, and freshman outfielder Dakota Potter all announced on X/Twitter this week that they’d be entering the transfer portal.

A former standout and Big South Player of the Year at Charleston Southern before transferring to South Carolina, Lamb has spent the last two seasons in the Garnet and Black.

The 5-foot-11 right-hander appeared in 63 games with the Gamecocks, pitching to a 3.26 ERA last season and a 4.37 ERA this year. Lamb was primarily used as South Carolina’s third option in the circle, behind Sam Gress and Jori Heard in 2025 and behind Heard and Emma Friedel in 2026.

Lamb has one year of eligibility remaining.

Favors and Potter were both in their first year with the program and played sparingly as true freshmen. Each has three years of eligibility remaining, with potentially four if the NCAA’s age-based eligibility reform passes.

The No. 18 overall prospect in her class according to Perfect Game, Favors made 13 appearances this season with a 4.12 ERA.

Potter, ranked the No. 56 overall prospect in her class by Softball America, appeared in 13 games and scored six runs, serving as a pinch runner, but did not register any at-bats.

With 77 days until South Carolina football kicks off 2026 season, a look back at No. 77 George Schecterly

With 77 days until South Carolina football kicks off 2026 season, a look back at No. 77 George Schecterly

South Carolina football will take the field for the first time in 2026 on September 5 against Kent State. Williams-Brice Stadium will play host to the Gamecocks and Golden Flashes at 12:45 p.m., just 77 days from today.

The No. 77 is often worn by offensive linemen. One of two tough-nosed offensive tackles in a fun Gamecock era wore the number, as George Schechterly played for the Gamecocks from 1978 to 1980.

Questions about this story? Kevin Miller is discussing it with subscribers on The Insiders Forum.

Schechterly actually began his career at Penn State, playing for legendary coach Joe Paterno. However, as a redshirt, he didn’t meet the conditioning requirements to stay with the Nittany Lions. South Carolina gave him a second chance, and the offensive lineman dedicated himself to getting better. It paid off in a big way.

Despite being a little undersized, Schechterly earned a starting job at right tackle for the Gamecocks. He played opposite left tackle Chuck Slaughter, and the duo excelled at sealing off defensive ends with reach blocks.

That proved to be a big deal for South Carolina, as a running back named George Rogers made defenses pay on toss sweep plays. Of course, Rogers wound up winning the 1980 Heisman Trophy, and Schechterly and Slaughter provided a lot of assistance. The toss sweep play worked so well that the fanbase often joked that the best ideas in the team’s playbook were “George Sweep Right” and “George Sweep Left.”

See other jersey countdown stories like this on GamecockCentral.com.

That same 1980 season, Schechterly was an All-Independent selection at tackle and won the Jacobs Blocking Trophy as the top overall blocker among Independent School blockers. He was USC’s only tackle ever to earn the honor, though several interior blockers did.

Following his graduation, Schechterly played briefly in the NFL, CFL, and USFL.
