South Carolina women's basketball star Ashlyn Watkins was arrested on Saturday and charged with first-degree assault and kidnapping following an incident at a student housing center. Warrants allege that Watkins forcefully grabbed the victim's face, pulled her arms, pushed her, and carried her against her will, preventing her from leaving.
