COLUMBIA — South Carolina women's basketball's five new players have secured their jersey numbers for the 2026-27 season.
Freshman forward Oliviyah Edwards, whose nickname is "Big Oh," will wear No. 0. Junior guard Jordan Lee, a transfer from Texas, will wear No. 7, the same number she wore with the Longhorns.
Freshman guard Jerzy Robinson will be No. 9, freshman forward Kelsi Andrews will be No. 23 and freshman guard Justine Loubens will wear No. 32.
All sports across the university switched to Nike as its official uniform supplier on July 1, but there has not been much in terms of photos for the new women's basketball jerseys.
Lee and Robinson will be the first players to wear No. 7 and No. 9 in program history.
Ta'Niya Latson wore No. 00 in her lone season with coach Dawn Staley last year, but not No. 0, so Edwards will be the first since Te-Hina Paopao from 2023-2025.
Bree Hall, the last player to wear No. 23, graduated in 2025, and Andrews will be the first since then to wear the iconic basketball number.
Elysa Wesolek, who was a senior in 2021-22 was the last player to wear No. 32.
