Good morning, Rock Hill.

South Carolina faces an environmental challenge as invasive lantern flies have been found in the Upstate and threaten local vegetation and agriculture.

Experts recommend immediate prevention measures — such as careful insecticide use and monitoring — to protect Rock Hill’s green spaces.

Rock Hill native DQ Smith enters his fourth season as starting safety for the South Carolina Gamecocks and has played in 34 of 37 games since 2021 with 164 tackles, four interceptions, 10 pass breakups and three forced fumbles.
