South Carolina’s athletic department announced Monday it is is nearly finished with its largest fundraising effort to date, and is looking for more.
With $28 million of the $30 million goal raised, USC is looking to keep the fundraising going, changing the new target to $40 million. That extra money will cover nearly half of the $21 million improvements for Williams-Brice Stadium, which were announced in September.
The drive began to fund the Long Family Football Operations Center, which is set to be finished at the end of the year. The $50 million facility will centralize elements of the football program that had been spread between the stadium and the far side of Gamecock Park.
