Prayers go out to the Kennedy Family. Legend, James “Radio” Kennedy passed away this morning. Radio is perhaps best known from 2003 film, ‘Radio’, based on his life in Anderson, South Carolina, where his character was played by Cuba Gooding, Jr. He was 73 years old
Battery Creek vs. HHCA baseball called in the bottom of the first after both benches emptied (or close to it). Set off by Creek player trucking HHCA 3B trying to stretch a two-run double into a triple.
After a 77-year drought, the Beaufort Eagles brought a public school football title with a 41-31 win over Powdersville on Thursday. Here’s your first look at the historic win.
May River’s Rodney Summers has stepped down as head football coach. The players were informed today. Summers is eligible for state retirement and operates a charter fishing business so he will be able to keep himself busy.
We're sad to report legendary Battery Creek wrestling coach Nathan Day has died after a bout with COVID-19. Our best wishes go out to the friends and family of Coach Day, including his son Ryan, a former standout athlete at Thomas Heyward. Nate left a huge mark on the Lowco. 💔
We talk a lot about “putting the LOWCO on the map.” Well,
@sneed_jaylen
made our dot on the map a whole lot bigger. Congrats Mr. Football!

Hearing Hilton Head star Jaylen Sneed (Notre Dame commit) was carted off with an injury at James Island. Sending best wishes and we’ll keep you posted as we learn more.
Having a real hard time focusing on the mountain of recaps staring at us after a busy and emotional weekend. We'll get them published, but we're all processing a lot of grief here in the Lowco. We must shower one another with love and grace. 💔💚🖤
Tyler Rice caps a 22-point night with a game-winning 3 ON HIS BIRTHDAY to lift Bluffton to a 58-56 win over Colleton County. Opens the door for HHIHS if the Seahawks can hold off Beaufort.
TWO-TIME STATE CHAMP! May River's Eli Hall avenges an earlier loss with a 6-1 win over Eastside's Rickey Abercrombie to win his second state title at 220!

Congrats to these All-State ballers from the Lowco!
4A boys: James Dennison, Beaufort
4A girls: Tacoya Heyward, Bluffton
3A girls: Kiara Wilson, Battery Creek
1A girls: Kynew Barnwell, Whale Branch
If you talk about the best "athletes" in the Lowco, you better not leave out Xavier Chaplin. Has Power 5 offers for OL AND DL. Placed 3rd at state wrestling as a soph before outgrowing the 285 class. And I watched him go coast to coast on a fast break last night. 6-6, 355. 🤯
When a coach doesn’t take the effort to post their scores or stats on MaxPreps, it shows a lot about why their program is where it is. Literally the bare minimum to promote your kids. 🐸☕️
Congrats to all of our Lowco graduates! It has been our pleasure to document your high school years and watch you grow into outstanding young men and women, and we look forward to seeing what you do next!

Thank you to everyone who came out to the inaugural All-Lowco Football Awards Brunch, and especially R Bar & Grill for their generosity as hosts! The turnout was incredible and it was great to have so many talented players in one place!
#GoLowco
Only six players from Beaufort County high schools have been drafted by NFL teams in 35 years. Two local products hope to add their names to the list this weekend.

When I was just getting LowcoSports up and running, I chased down a local kid who was a hot prospect and he told me pro baseball could wait. He was gonna be a Gamecock. Look at ya now, Carmen!
#GoLOWCO
The worst possible news out of Colleton County this evening. Absolutely heart-breaking. Please, if you are able to help the Sherrill family, find a way. They're going to need EVERYTHING, but especially love and grace.
#RIPAlex
Make that 11 in a row...May River Baseball opens the playoffs with a 3-2 win over South Florence in 10 innings. One of the best high school games I've been a part of in 21 years of coaching. 🦈💪🏻⚾
This young man is an inspiration. He's already using his platform to help kids in his community as a HS senior. Imagine what he'll do when he really hits it big.
@WoffordMBB
is getting a special player. To the moon, Nick! 🚀🏀

The First Annual Treys 4 Trey Basketball Camp was an success today 🖤 I’m blessed that we were able to make this happen❗️Thank you to everyone who supported this camp to help my dreams come true.
@LowcoSports
Got to see two legends this weekend - Shohei Ohtani and Anderson Jones! Only one posed for a photo with me. Our dude is looking GREAT!
#AndersonJonesFanClub
That escalated quickly! Congrats to
@ahmad_green10
for finding a home where he'll get a chance to stick at QB. He'll be dirty running the triple.

No matter how you feel about the saga at Alabama, no one deserves this moment more than

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all! We are thankful to still have a football team playing, to have some great hoops and wrestling to look forward to, and for all of you!

He’s the real deal. Criminally underrecruited up to this point. So are many of his

teammates.
📢📢📢 Stop sleeping on rural SC kids because of preconceived notions about kids from their zip code.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
This is the kind of content you can only get from LowcoSports. May River 🏈 and 🤼♂️ standout Big Man Ferguson hitting a surprisingly good cartwheel.
@CoachPowell6
Confirmed Hilton Head Prep has elected to forfeit its SCISA 3A playoff game at Pee Dee Academy with only 15 players available. You may be surprised to learn the winless Dolphins were *in* the playoffs. We’ll have some things to say about the SCISA playoff setup this week.🤦🏼♂️👂
Last May River football banquet. It was an honor to receive the Michael Mugrage ICE award for integrity, class, and excellence.

Whale Branch HS has named Kaysee Sullivan its new athletic director. Sullivan was a 3-sport star at Fort Dorchester and a thrower for the South Carolina T&F team, and she has 9 years experience at Academic Magnet, Fort D, Woodland, and South Mecklenburg (NC).
Big loss for
@JP2_athletics
and the local sports community.
@MattDakolios
is a class act and a pleasure to work with – and I suspect a pleasure to work for. Best wishes to a top-notch family.
Happy birthday to one of the Lowco's finest,
@PoonaF_95
! You make us all proud, big man! Gotta get you on the podcast in the offseason, even though talking isn't really your thing. 😀
Beaufort High has named Zack Jacobs, former top assistant at Berkeley HS, as its new head baseball coach after Keith Riley stepped down following the Eagles’ run to the Class 4A Lower State finals. Jacobs is one of four new head coaches at BHS.
The nature of college recruiting has changed dramatically in recent years and everyone must adjust to the new landscape. If you want to keep playing, go where you can do just that, and if you outgrow the level, opportunities will abound. D1 or bust is a death sentence for dreams.
Please send prayers, good vibes, etc. to former
@CCountyHoops
All-State player Alex Sherrill and his family. We’ve learned Alex was involved in a serious auto accident last night. We’ll pass along any updates and efforts to help the family as we become aware of them.
#LowcoStrong
FACTS. Same goes for trashing kids for signing to play D2/D3/NAIA/JUCO. Every family's situation and priorities are different. You have to find the right fit for you in terms of the program, education, and finances. Outside opinions mean nothing.
Thrilled to be able to release the rosters for the 2021 Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl (
@NorthSouthFB
).
It's not hard to look at these 88 players and see this could be the best roster in the game's history.
JUST ANNOUNCED: Legendary

Coach Dave Adams will lead the HHCA Middle School 🏈 team as Head Coach in the coming year + already well-loved & respected Eagles Coach Gerrick Taylor will lead a NEW HHCA JV 🏈 team this fall.
