• Redshirt senior guard Chelsea Dungee took over in this one, lighting up the scoreboard to the tune of 33 points, a new season-high. She did a ton of her damage at the free throw line, hitting all 17 of her free throw attempts, matching her career-high in freebies made (17-19, Auburn, 2/7/19), which matched her own program record.

• Amber Ramirez and Makayla Daniels also scored in double-figures, notching 12 and 11 points, respectively.

South Carolina is also fourth in the country in offensive rebounds per game (19.1), reeling in an SEC-best 46.2 percent of its own missed shots to average 17.2 second-chance points.

• The Gamecocks’ starting backcourt of Zia Cooke and Destanni Henderson is building a substantial resume this season. Cooke is sixth in the SEC with a team-best 18.8 points per game, hitting 2.3 3-pointers per game to rank sixth in the SEC. She does that while adding 3.0 assists per game.

• Henderson is third on the team with 12.1 points per game, including a pair of 20-point outings. Her 5.5 assists per game are 21st in the country (2nd in the SEC), and her 3.1 assist-to-turnover ratio is 29th in the nation (3rd in the SEC).

• Sophomore forward Aliyah Boston continues to show off her expanding game this season with four double-figure rebound games, six double-figure scoring games and 1.6 blocks per game. She is one of three players in the SEC averaging a double-double on the season and one of two who also rank among the league’s top 10 in blocked shots. She is shooting 35.7 percent from 3-point range (5-of-14) and, in league play, she ranks seventh in steals per game at 2.5
