Edwards wanted the ball

Though she missed her first three shots in Friday’s first round of the NCAA Tournament, Dani Edwards did not stop shooting.

In the fourth period, with the game on the line, Edwards could not miss. Clemson’s senior guard, who has waited for her one shining moment her whole life, made all four of her shots in the fourth—all from behind the arc—to help the No. 9 seed Tigers knock off No. 8 South Dakota, 79-66, in the Portland Regional at the Humphrey Coliseum in Starkville, Miss.

“It was amazing,” Edwards said to the Associated Press after the game.
