Bobcats vs. Pacers, tonight 7 p.m. at the Colonial Center USC guard takes second team honors in preseason Alex Riley SPORTS EDITOR

USC point guard Tre Kelley has been telling people his personal goal for the season has been to be the best point guard in the SEC. The road to the top got a huge boost when the senior was named to the preseason All-SEC second team. “I continue to be amazed that media and/or experts around, locally and around the country, haven’t gained a real appreciation for Tre Kelley as a national caliber guard,” USC coach Dave Odom said. The returning leading scorer for Carolina averaged 12.5 points per game last fall while leading the SEC with 4.6 assists per game. “I think I’ve been the leader of this team for two years since I’ve been the starting point guard,” Kelley said earlier this season. “The Darron Cummings (Top); Chuck Burton (Right) / The Associated Press point guard is the leader, Claire’s Jermaine O’Neal (above in white) and Latta’s whether you’re a senior or Raymond Felton (right, 20) will play for their respective not.” teams in tonight’s’ NBA preseason game at the Colonial The D.C. native has led Center between the Indiana Pacers and Charlotte USC to back-to-back NIT Bobcats.
