The South Carolina Gamecock women resume NCAA Tournament play tonight at 7 p.m., when the top-seeded squad battles the No. 2 Maryland Terrapins for a place in what would be the program’s fifth Final Four.
South Carolina (35-0), chasing a perfect season and consecutive national titles, is back in the Elite Eight for the third straight year after defensively dismantling 4-seed UCLA, 59-43. The Terps (28-6) enjoyed a dominating performance of their own in the Sweet 16, dispatching third-seeded Notre Dame 75-59 to reach this round.
This will be the second straight matchup in which the Gamecocks meet a regular-season opponent again.
