After entering the transfer portal following two seasons with Tennessee softball, Saviya Morgan will remain in the SEC.
Morgan announced she has committed to South Carolina.
"So excited to call South Carolina home," Morgan wrote June 18 on X.
As a freshman, Morgan started in 59 games, working her way into the leadoff spot in the first half of the season, hitting .340 with 48 runs, 14 RBIs and 25 stolen bases. The outfielder saw less of the field as a sophomore, starting in 10 of 33 appearances, while batting .257 with five RBIs, two doubles, 10 runs scored and four stolen bases.
One of those starts came in her hometown of Columbia as Tennessee defeated Austin Peay in the annual Midstate Classic.
