Chloe Kitts leads No. 2 South Carolina in comeback victory over Mississippi State, 95-68


No. 2 South Carolina women’s basketball team staged an impressive comeback against Mississippi State, winning 95-68 on Sunday. Chloe Kitts led the Gamecocks with 17 points and 10 rebounds, while Tessa Johnson contributed 20 points with four 3-pointers. South Carolina erased an 11-point deficit in the second quarter, outscoring the Bulldogs 19-2 in the final five minutes of the period to take the lead. They extended their lead to 42-34 at halftime and never looked back, outscoring Mississippi State 26-11 in the third quarter. Jerkaila Jordan scored 24 points for the Bulldogs in the losing effort.

The Gamecocks, defending national champions, showed their potential for another title with a dominant performance. They will face Texas A&M in their next game, while Mississippi State will host No. 9 Oklahoma. Despite a strong start from the Bulldogs, turnovers and hot shooting from South Carolina allowed the Gamecocks to take control of the game. South Carolina made 10-of-21 3-pointers and forced 20 turnovers from Mississippi State. The Bulldogs could not maintain their early lead and ultimately fell to the reigning champions.

The game showcased the talent and determination of the South Carolina team, with players like Te-Hina PaoPao and Joyce Edwards making significant contributions. As they continue their SEC and national championship campaign, the Gamecocks look poised for success. Mississippi State, on the other hand, will need to regroup and learn from this loss as they aim to bounce back in their next game against Oklahoma.
