South Carolina Gamecocks smack Texas A&M Aggies

Carolina dominated Texas A&M from start to finish. The Gamecocks won all four quarters, including both the 1st and 3rd periods by at least 15 points. Dawn Staley’s team smothered the Aggies as they held the visitors to less than 30% shooting from the field.

For the game, South Carolina had almost as many assists (20) as A&M had total made baskets (21). Five Gamecocks had multiple assists, led by Te-Hina Paopao’s six.

Six South Carolina stars finished with double-digit scoring numbers against Texas A&M. Joyce Edwards led all scorers (19) and rebounders (10) as she logged another double-double.

Results: South Carolina won 90-49

South Carolina Gamecocks handle ‘Horns in top-5 matchup

South Carolina’s stifling defense kept Texas’ highly-rated offense at bay on Sunday. UT shot just 27.85% from the floor, including just 10-for-46 numbers from the starters.

Seven Gamecocks had at least seven points against Texas. That balanced effort translated to the defensive end of the court, as well. Bree Hall, Sania Feagin, Raven Johnson, and MiLaysia Fulwiley were among the best defenders on the day.

Despite giving up 11 offensive rebounds in the opening four minutes of the game, South Carolina bounced back to win the battle on the boards, 42-40.

Results: South Carolina won 67-50
