Women’s basketball routed by No. 12 South Carolina Thursday night

The Ole Miss women’s basketball team lost on the road to No. 12 South Carolina 76 42 in Columbia.

The Rebels dropped their fifth straight game, falling to 8-16 on the season and 2-8 in conference play. Both teams experienced offensive struggles early on, failing to score for nearly four minutes before putting a flurry of points on the board in the middle of the first period.

Head coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin continued to experiment with the starting lineup, again benching star fifth-year seniors Crystal Allen and La’Karis Salter, instead opting to bring them in early in the first period.
