Gonzalo Pena Barrasus is the only goal scorer for the Owls so far this season and he also leads in shots with seven.
ABOUT THE OPPONENT
South Carolina (1-2-0) dropped its season opener, 1-0, to then No. 13 Georgetown before picking up the first win of the season against Lipscomb on August 24 by a score of 2-1. Last week, the Gamecocks fell to Clemson, 2-0.
Justin Sukow and Tucker Monheimer have each scored for South Carolina this season, while Luca Mayr leads the team in shots with 13. The Gamecocks return 14 letterwinners from last season, including seven starters.
