Clemson found itself outmatched against No. 5 South Carolina in a de facto road game in Littlejohn Coliseum as the Gamecock Club bussed in a few hundred fans in garnet to the upstate. The Lady Tigers fell 84-48 after struggling to sink baskets from the field.
Clemson shot just 26-percent and turned the ball over 22 times while South Carolina finished 48-percent from the field and 35-percent from three.
The Lady Tigers still lead the overall series 33-32 but dropped their 10th straight to the Gamecocks.
Clemson head coach Amanda Butler knows her team has room to improve but credited the Gamecocks for their defensive performance.
