South Carolina left handed reliever Ashton Crowther is the latest Gamecock to enter the transfer portal. Crowther announced the move via his X account on Monday.

Crowther is the 18th Gamecock to enter the transfer portal since it opened on June 2. He will be looking for the third team of his collegiate career after spending two seasons with Miami and one with South Carolina.

The 6-foot-3 and 220 pound left hander out of Miami, Florida, joined South Carolina out of the transfer portal prior to the 2025 season. He appeared in 19 games in 2025, making two starts. He finished with a 2-2 record, 4.38 ERA, a save, with 28 strikeouts in 37 innings.

His best performance during SEC play came on Apr 26 against the Kentucky Wildcats. On that day, he struck out four batters in 2.2 hitless innings in a win. Crowther thanked Gamecock nation and is excited for what is to come.

After careful consideration I have decided to enter the transfer portal,thank you gamecock nation for this past year. Excited for what is yet to come.
