WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

Newton's Hot Hand Guides Gamecocks Past Georgia, 57-48 | Gamecocks Online
How 'bout that. The Lady Gamecocks pull out the upset victory over a ranked Georgia squad.

Courtney Newton shot 5 of 5 on 3-pointers and finished with 16 points and South Carolina ended No. 20 Georgia's seven-game winning streak with a 57-48 victory Thursday night.

Things might finally be looking up Dawn Staley and her crew.

Georgia struggled with its shooting. It shot 34.5 percent for the game and missed all seven of its 3-point attempts. Khaalidah Miller was 1 of 6 and Meredith Mitchell was 3 of 9.

True, the 'Dawgs might have had a particularly bad night, but the Gamecocks were there to take advantage of it. Anybody have a Women's Basketball media guide? I'd like to know the last time we beat UGA.

Yeah, it looks good. But nothing says "National Champions" like a sculpture. Murals fade, but statues, like real men, only become more distinguished with time.
