Their record this season is 1-17, and the club is ranked fifth from the bottom overall (out of 357) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the worst team (out of 11) in the MEAC (average ranking 304.9).

Carolina St. has had serious struggles making their free throws this year. Converting just 60.7% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #353 overall in free throw percentage. S.

They are worse off shooting inside the three-point stripe, making good on just 32.1% of their mid-range jumpers (337th in the nation), 50.3% of their near-proximity chances (sixth from the bottom), and 38.4% of their total shots from the field (tenth from the bottom) vs. AO.

Carolina St. allows opposing teams far too many easy chances from the floor, ranking in the bottom-50 in three of the four main defensive field goal shooting categories.

S. Carolina St. is also one of the very worst teams in the game when it comes to preventing opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 6.7% of all second-chance opportunities (335th nationally).
