South Carolina’s 43-game winning streak came to an end with a loss to UCLA, but the Gamecocks bounced back with a dominant 76-36 win over Iowa State. Head coach Dawn Staley praised her resilient team for handling the defeat with grace and learning from it. Against Iowa State, South Carolina had a strong offensive performance, shooting 45.3 percent from the floor. Staley emphasized the importance of ball movement and involving all players in scoring positions. The team relied on a balanced scoring attack led by senior forward Sania Feagin and freshman forward Joyce Edwards. South Carolina’s strong defense held Iowa State to just 36 points in the game. The Gamecocks will look to continue their winning ways as they face Purdue next in Fort Meyers, Florida. Staley’s team is focused on improvements and continuing their success as they move forward in the season.
