COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Wofford used South Carolina's rocky starts to each half and 30 points from Nathan Hoover to rout the Gamecocks 81-61 Monday.
The Gamecocks (3-3) knew they had to defend All-America candidate Fletcher Magee and did, holding him to eight points on 3-of-15 shooting. Hoover's name was also starred on the scouting report but once his first shot went in, he didn't stop shooting.
Hoover hit nine 3-pointers on his way to 30 points, each a career-high. Matched up with South Carolina freshman star A.J. Lawson, Hoover took advantage of his experience.
