BREAKING: CBU’s Abir Reffas will transfer to South Carolina!

Abir Reffas had previously competed for CBU during the 2023-2024 season before moving back to Algeria for a year.  She is a 5x Algerian national champion on the track.

Other newcomers to South Carolina’s XC squad include Jade Buridon from France and Salma El Badra, the latter of whom transferred to South Carolina from Wyoming last winter.

Since the program’s inception in 1987, South Carolina has never qualified as a team for the NCAA XC National Championships. 

Could the Gamecocks make their first NCAA XC nationals berth this fall?

Abir’s Personal Bests:
1500: 4:11.35
5000: 15:25.37
