The Gamecocks have been facing some challenges recently, with a series of losses that they're eager to turn around on their home court.
In their last game against the Kennesaw State Owls, the Gamecocks put up a valiant effort but fell short with a final score of 61 to 71. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways from their performance, particularly in the fourth quarter where they outscored the Owls by ten points. This surge demonstrates that when pushed, the team has what it takes to rally and put significant points on the board.
