If you are subscribed to the insider's forum you'll know that we had the news of five of these games and dates last week, but South Carolina has finally announced its full non-confernece baseball schedule for 2023. Opening day is set for February 17th at Founders Park, 10 weeks from this Friday.

Here is the full release from the university:

COLUMBIA – The University of South Carolina baseball team announced its non-conference schedule this morning (Tuesday, Dec. 6), with the annual three-game series against Clemson and the neutral site game against North Carolina in Charlotte as part of the out of conference slate.

The Gamecocks will open 2023 with a three-game series against UMass Lowell at Founders Park on Feb. 17-19. A pair of midweek tilts against Winthrop (Feb. 21) and Queens (Feb. 22) is followed by a weekend series against Penn (Feb. 24-26). Carolina will face North Carolina A&T on Feb. 28 before facing Clemson to start March. The in-state series opens Friday, March 3 at Clemson. Saturday’s game (March 4) is at Fluor Field in Greenville and the series will wrap up on Sunday, March 5 at Founders Park.

Carolina’s second double midweek of the season will start with a home game against The Citadel on March 7 and end back at Fluor Field with a matchup against USC Upstate on March 8. Carolina then takes on Bethune-Cookman on March 10-12 at Founders Park.

The Gamecocks also have home midweek games against Presbyterian (March 14), USC Upstate (April 11), Charleston Southern (April 18), North Florida (May 9) and Charlotte (May 16).

Carolina faces Charlotte on March 21 at Truist Field in Charlotte, where Carolina also will play North Carolina on Tuesday, April 4. Road matchups with The Citadel (March 28) and Winthrop (May 3) also dot the non-conference portion of the schedule.

Carolina announced its 30-game SEC schedule in October, which starts on March 17 at Georgia. The SEC recently announced that series at Mississippi State (March 30-April 1) and at home against Florida (April 20-22) will be Thursday-Saturday contests.
 
Hoping to see another series with Texas or start a two year series with Oklahoma State or Norte Dame or Texas Tech.
I agree. College baseball needs to try to step in and encourage more of these games in an attempt to grow the game. Instead we get fed a bunch of PCs, Winthrops, USC Upstate’s, etc…..

No he needs another year. The team is young and he needs to bring in his players. LOL.
jeez. can't be young every year. the only argument for not terminating him this year if the team struggles again is to keep Ray Tanner from hiring yet another unsuccessful coach.
 
Oh and I forgot injuries. We have to be the most injured and youngest team year after year in College baseball!


expect at least one starter and one main reliever to be shut down for arm soreness a week before the season starts.

then we will find out those 2 and another mid week starter have been having arm soreness since August.

I'm not sure but, I think D.A.F.W.W.O. rules state that you can't use injuries as a valid excuse until you have either been swept in a series or lost your third series of the season.

When did we stop playing C of C? Daughters boyfriend plays for them, was hoping to see him pitch without having to drive to Charleston. Oh well.

Pretty sure it was right after Chad Holbrook took the job there. Pretty sure USC and Kingston see this as a no win situation. Not to mention the one time they did meet on the diamond, Holbrook smoked us.
