South Carolina is hosting its spring game at Williams-Brice Stadium on Saturday.
The Gamecocks conducted an alumni flag football game as part of the festivities prior to the main event.
Many of the program’s greats returned to campus to participate, including the Gamecocks’ first-ever All-American selection.
Lou Sossamon, now 94-years-old, was given the honor of scoring the first touchdown of the afternoon.
He still moves pretty well for a guy that’s approaching 100:
