No. 13 Tennessee 68, South Carolina 56
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Alex Fuller scored 14 points and No. 13
Tennessee overcame a slow start to beat South Carolina 68-56 on
Sunday for the 36th consecutive time.
It was a season high for Fuller, who wore Cait McMahan’s No. 2
jersey on Sunday to honor her teammate who decided to end her
career a week ago after recurring injuries. Fuller will wear No. 2
instead of her usual No. 44 for the rest of the season.
Coming out of halftime with a 33-30 lead, the Lady Vols (14-3,
3-1 Southeastern Conference) used a 15-4 run to take over the game.
A layup by Glory Johnson with 12:12 left gave Tennessee a 50-34
lead.
From there, the Gamecocks (8-9, 0-4) could only get as close as
seven points when Samone Kennedy kicked out the ball to Lakeisha
Sutton for a wide-open 3 with 6:13 left.
