Kelley, Wallace, Sheldon gear up to play last hoorah at Colonial Center

Brian Saal ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR

Three men’s basketball seniors will put on their home jerseys for the last time Wednesday night. Tre’ Kelley, Brandon Wallace and Bryce Sheldon — along with the rest of the Gamecocks — will try to avoid a losing season with a victory against Vanderbilt at the Colonial Center. Carolina (14-13, 4-10), who is tied for last place in the SEC with LSU, needs a strong fi nish to get a higher seed in the conference tournament next week. No. 9 ranked Vanderbilt (19-9, 9-5) is second place in the SEC, and will bring a high-scoring offense that averages 76.3 points a game and a stellar .463 percentage from the field. Compare that to the Gamecock’s 64.7 points per game and .425 percentage. The Commodores crushed Carolina’s hearts on Valentine’s Day with a 78-68 win in Nashville. Expect the same amount of fireworks for the season’s final home game. The highlight will be the matchup between two of the frontrunners for the SEC Player of the Year — Vandy’s Derrick Byars and Carolina’s Kelley, who is second in the SEC with points per game. Byars is right on Kelley’s heels at No. 4, and he out-shot Kelley in Nashville, scoring 32 points compared to Kelley’s 21. Despite the 10-point loss, coach Dave Odom said it was a whole lot closer than that. We were only down one with 2-3 minutes to go, and we made a few unforced turnovers Ö and we gave up two threes to (Alex) Gordon and that did us in,î Odom said. Carolina is coming off an impressive 76-63 home victory against Ole Miss over the weekend. This means USC could end the season with a winning record if it can outplay Vanderbilt tonight and LSU on the road Saturday. Vandy had an impressive week that included knocking off first ranked Florida and Kentucky. The Commodores defeated the Gators by 13 points, but the celebration didn’t last long. Vandy suffered a loss by the same amount to Juan Blas / THE DAILY GAMECOCK LAST ● PAGE 11 Senior guard Bryce Sheldon and the Gamecocks take on No. 19 Vanderbilt tonight.
