Early life and college career

[edit | edit source]

Lee was born on December 7, 2001, in Woodbridge, Virginia.[1] He attended Freedom High School in Woodbridge where he played football as a two-way lineman and also was a top basketball player.[2] He was named all-district in both sports and was an all-state football player in 2018.[3] A three-star recruit, he committed to play college football for the South Carolina Gamecocks.[4]

Lee appeared in South Carolina's first three games as a true freshman in 2020, then redshirted.[3] He appeared in all 13 games, nine as a starter at left guard, in 2021.[3] He then started seven of 12 games at left guard in 2022.[3] Prior to the 2023 season, he transitioned to playing center, a position he had never played before.[5][6] He started the first five games of the season at center before moving to right tackle and starting the remaining five games there.[3] Lee started all 13 games at center in his final season, 2024.[3] He concluded his collegiate career with 51 games played, 40 as a starter.[7] He was invited to the 2025 Tropical Bowl.[8]
