Freshman Sahnya Jah will be moving on from the program, Gamecocks head coach Dawn Staley announced on Monday.
“Sahnya Jah officially entered the transfer portal today,” Staley said in a release. “It is unfortunate that her time with us was short, but we wish her the best in the next steps of her career.”
Jah was the 40th-best women’s basketball prospect in the country for the last recruiting cycle. She won high school national championship at Montverde Academy in Florida.
During the 2023-2024 season, Jah appeared in 16 games for South Carolina. She averaged 3.1 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.1 minutes in those contests.
Jah was given a “week off” from practice in the preseason and was also announced as being suspended back on February 8 for conduct detrimental to the team.
Dawn Staley’s program begins another NCAA Tournament run on Friday with a 2:00 p.m. EST matchup against the winner of Sacred Heart/Presbyterian.
South Carolina earned the top overall seed in the tournament, earning a one seed in the Albany regional.
The Gamecocks captured another SEC championship this season along with an SEC Tournament title, going 32-0 heading into the NCAA Tournament.
