Johnson’s 3-pointer lifts No. 18 South Carolina to 82-76 comeback victory over No. 24 Florida

Associated Press  

COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina coach Lamont Paris never believed he had a last-place team and has watched with a grin as his 18th-ranked Gamecocks have proved him right. The latest evidence came Saturday when Meechie Johnson had 25 points, including a go-ahead 3-pointer with 43.4 seconds left, to fuel South Carolina’s rally from 10 points down in the second half in an 82-76 victory over No. His driving layup with five minutes to play gave South Carolina its first lead since early in the game, 65-63. Jacobi Wright had 16 points, 12 in the first half, to keep South Carolina close enough to rally down the stretch.
