(AP) South Carolina&#39;s Syvelle Newton, who threw for two touchdowns and ran for a third, came out of Saturday&#39;s game against Vanderbilt with a left ankle injury.<br> <br> Newton had just rushed for an 11-yard touchdown to put the Gamecocks ahead 28-14 with 11 minutes left when he remained on the ground amid cheers at Williams-Brice Stadium. He was quickly assisted off the field by team trainer Rod Walter, Newton&#39;s left leg not touching the ground.<br> <br> Trainers worked on Newton briefly along the sidelines before he was carted off to the locker room, his left ankle in a supporting brace. The team announced that Newton would not return.<br> <br> The Gamecocks used Newton at quarterback, wide receiver and running back against Vanderbilt.<br> <br> (Copyright 2005 by The Associated Press.
