She finished with 28 points and 22 rebounds, the first time in her career she went for more than 20 points and 20 rebounds in a game. It was just the fourth time in NCAA women's tournament history that a player had 25 points and 20 rebounds in a game.
Aliyah Boston continues to set records

Let's just lay it out there. She is the absolute rock of our team and without her we are merely good, if we're lucky. Not only that, she is a most impressive young woman, a credit to the program and to the university.
I am a Fan. You see her character displayed in the way she plays. I said, and got chastised for asking it, "are we watching the GOAT? She is a really smart Basketball player.
She is really the head of our team. She appears to be an outstanding young woman and I am so proud that she is a Gamecock!
IF NOT THE GOAT, THEN SHE MUST BE THE BOSTON STRANGLER!!!
We would still be a Sweet 16 team without her. I mean, we haven't missed it since 2013. Glad we have A.B.
Sweet 16 would not be enough. Expectations have gone way beyond that. The ceiling would be too low.
This is correct. Just look at Bama, are they happy when not in the final 4 playoffs in football? No they expect to be there and expect to win every year
and anything else is failure. The bar for them in football is higher than 12 or 13 wins in a season.
This team went into the season ranked #1 and we are still ranked #1. We were seeded as overall #1. How can anything less than the championship not be considered insufficient?
Obviously, y'all...
The Sweet 16 is our basement expectation. But we could have lost to UNC just last week in the Sweet 16.
Sometimes Bama etc. lose to LSU, Auburn etc. and miss the playoffs.
Ray Tanner lost many super regionals and even some regionals.
Yes there was the occasional loss by bama but that didn't affect their expectations. Anything is possible but playing for the MNC is the expectation. Ray lost games but was always in the hunt and you felt like his teams should be there. That's not the case in men's basketball, and it should be. Dawn changed the culture for the women and now winning at a high level is expected, where before that was never the case.

And you think any of those entities feel successful if/when they experience such as that? There comes a point where closing the deal is all that matters.
