South Carolina basketball picks up win in 1st game in 28 days.
Junior guard AJ Lawson paced the team with a season-high 25 points, helping the Gamecocks land a 78-71 win over Florida A&M this past Saturday. Lawson made 9-of-16 attempts, and sank two free throws in the game’s final seconds to secure the victory.
South Carolina looked rusty at points in the contest, which was to be expected after having not played a game in nearly a month.
