View source for South Carolina Gamecocks

The '''South Carolina Gamecocks''' represent the University of South Carolina in the NCAA Division I. The Gamecocks compete at the Division I level of the NCAA, and all but men's soccer and women's beach volleyball compete in the [[Southeastern Conference]]. Men's soccer competes in [[Conference USA]] and women's beach volleyball competes in the [[Coastal Collegiate Sports Association]] because the SEC does not sponsor those sports.

The University's athletic teams have been known as Gamecocks for almost 100 years. At the turn of the century (1900), after struggling for more than decade under numerous nicknames, the school's football team was first referred to unofficially as "Gamecocks." In 1903, Columbia's morning newspaper, ''The State'', shortened the name to one word and South Carolina teams have been Gamecocks ever since.
