COLUMBIA, S.C. – The fourth-ranked Florida volleyball team topped South Carolina on Wednesday night, sweeping the Gamecocks in the Carolina Volleyball Center.

Florida moves to 5-0 to begin the year and the team has not dropped a set thus far. The last time a UF team started 5-0 without dropping a set was 2011, when the team began the season 6-0.

The Gators won the first set handily, defeating South Carolina 25-17 in the frame. Florida continued to control the momentum, winning the second frame 25-17 and then closed out the match with a tightly-contested 25-22 win in the third set.
