South Carolina baseball left handed pitcher (LHP) Jarvis Evans Jr. has entered the transfer portal following one season with the Gamecocks.

Mainly taking the mound as a starter, Evans Jr. made 13 appearances with nine starts for South Carolina in 2025. He finished with a 4-2 overall record with 41 strikeouts. One of his best outings in a Gamecocks' uniform came on Mar 12 where he had seven strikeouts and just one run in five hits in a win over Georgia State.

Other highlights for the junior out of Buford, Georgia included striking out six batters in seven innings, allowing just three hits and a run, in a Mar 5 win over The Citadel. He did not allow a run in 5.2 innings in an Apr 29 win over Charleston Southern.
