South Carolina Women's Basketball Sets Win Record

The No. 1-ranked South Carolina women's basketball team achieved a significant milestone by defeating Clemson 77-45, marking their 43rd consecutive win and setting a new program record. After a sluggish start where they trailed 17-12 midway through the second quarter, the Gamecocks executed a dominant 17-0 run to seize control of the game. Senior guard Te-Hina Paopao led the team with 13 points, while junior Ashlyn Watkins contributed a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds. South Carolina's strong defensive performance, which included nine blocks and forcing 19 turnovers, underpinned their victory. The Gamecocks, now 5-0, will face a tougher challenge against No. 5 UCLA on November 24. This victory extends their impressive streak, which includes 84 wins in their last 85 games and 14 straight victories against Clemson.
