Fall Exhibition Schedule
The University of South Carolina baseball team will contest four preseason exhibition games this fall, meeting High Point, College of Charleston, Winthrop and Duke in a compact October‑November window.
The first three contests are slated for Fridays in October, with the series opening on October 9 at Founders Park, followed by a October 16 matchup at Segra Park and a October 23 game back at Founders Park.
The final exhibition arrives on Sunday, November 1, when the Gamecocks travel to Fifth Third Park in Spartanburg, S.C., to face Duke in a neutral‑site showdown.
Two of the games at Founders Park — on October 9 and October 23 — will be open to the public at no charge, while tickets for the College of Charleston contest become available to the general public on August 28 at 10 a.m.
Full team practice is scheduled to begin on September 28, 2024, and the exhibitions form an integral part of the fall training regimen, allowing coaches to evaluate players before the spring season.
NCAA Exhibition Rules
The NCAA’s 2018 rule change permits Division I programs to schedule up to four fall exhibitions without impacting their spring schedule, a provision that South Carolina is leveraging to fine‑tune its roster depth.
Consequently, the upcoming slate not only offers fans early‑season action but also provides the coaching staff with valuable competitive reps ahead of the regular season.
