In 1970-71, the University took its first of two steps to distinguishitselffromUSCColumbiabychangingtheschoolcolorsfromgarnetandblacktopurpleandwhite.Ayearlater,the University changed its nickname to the Spartan Rifles in honorofalocalmilitiaunitthatplayedanintegralpartintheRevolutionaryWar,winninganimportantvictoryattheBattleof Cowpens. Though the official nickname was the Spartan Rifles, the athletic teams were known as just the Rifles. The USCS athletic teams were known as the Rifles from 1971-2004.

Midfielders The midfield unit will likely be the strongest unit for the Spartans in 2009. Thegroupwill likelyhavevarious looks throughout theseason,depend-ingonthetypeofformationthatCoachReyesimplements.Leigh Wardreturns to lead the unit that includes five newcomers. Ward(Jr.,5-9,Summerville,S.C./FortDorchesterHS)sawactioninall19gamesaseasonagowith11starts. Wardwill likelyseeactionatallmidfielder positions as she understands the responsibility of each position onthepitch. Battling for positions in the midfield are five new comers: Aveann Doug-las, Maegan Garner, Dana Hillman, Ashleigh Barkley and Daphnee Cadet. Douglas(Jr.-TR,5-5,Arima,Trinidad/MonroeCC)joinstheSpartansaf-ter spending the last two seasons at Monroe CC in New York. She finished her twoyearstintwith threegoalsand twoassists. Her leadershipandplayingskillswillallowher tohavean impact forUpstate in ’09. CoachReyes will be able to utilize Douglas at various midfield positions. Garner (So., 5-2, Charleston, S.C./Fort Dorchester HS), Hillman (Fr.,5-8, Berlin, Germany), and Barkley (So.-TR, 5-7, Phoenix,Ariz./GeorgeWashington)andCadet(Jr.-TR,5-7,Jacmel,Haiti/Bryant&Stratton)areallextremelyskilledplayers.ThequartetwillgiveCoachReyestheabilitytousedifferentformationswiththeabilitytorotatedifferentplayersaroundthemidfield.
