Five-star recruit Oliviyah Edwards has officially committed to the University of South Carolina, marking a major coup for head coach Dawn Staley. The No. 5 player in the 2026 class previously pledged to Tennessee but switched her commitment after visiting South Carolina. Edwards joins a strong incoming class that includes No. 3 recruit Jerzy Robinson and No. 24 Kelsi Andrews. 'I chose South Carolina because it felt like home,' Edwards told ESPN. 'Coach Staley, the staff, and the team showed me a level of love and belief that stood out.' Her decision adds to South Carolina's growing reputation as a top destination for elite recruits in women's college basketball.
