South Carolina women’s basketball advances to the Final Four with win over Creighton

By Chris Wellbaum

South Carolina dominated inside to beat Creighton 80-50 and advance to the Final Four.

South Carolina will be making its fourth Final Four appearance and second in a row. All four appearances have been in the last eight years (and seven tournaments).

South Carolina outrebounded Creighton 43-23 and had a 42-22 advantage in points in the paint. The Gamecocks attempted 27 free throws compared to just five for the Bluejays, and held them to 37.5% shooting overall and 7-21 from three. South Carolina shot 50.9% from the floor. Individually, Aliyah Boston scored 19 points, Brea Beal had 12, and Victaria Saxton had 11 points and 11 rebounds. Laeticia Amihere and Kamilla Cardoso each had nine points off the bench. 

South Carolina established itself inside right from the jump ball. Boston got the ball on each of the first few possessions, and even though Creighton gave her a different look each time, Boston scored or set up a basket. But Creighton was able to hang around for the first quarter and trailed just 25-18 when South Carolina found another gear.
