Key moment It came early as South Carolina dominated from the start with Edwards scoring six straight after Tech trailed 5-4 to get her team going. “I’m going to pick her brain about some of the things that we need to do to continue to help our players.” Rematches The first of what could be a few recent rematches take place for South Carolina on Sunday with the Hoosiers, who fell to the Gamecocks 79-75 a year ago in the Sweet 16.
