Top-seeded South Carolina, 9th-seeded USC chase NCAA goals despite losing All-Americans
South Carolina and USC advanced in the NCAA women’s tournament despite losing All-Americans Chloe Kitts and JuJu Watkins to injuries, showing roster depth and resilience.
- Saturday's opening-round game left South Carolina and USC one win from the Sweet 16, with their next matchup scheduled for Monday night in Sacramento.
- After offseason injuries to their All-Americans, Chloe Kitts, a senior forward , hurt her knee in October and JuJu Watkins tore her ACL last year, supporting teammates instead of playing.
- After a dramatic review, USC prevailed in overtime 71-67 over Clemson following a buzzer play that officials ruled came after time expired, coach Lindsay Gottlieb said she watched replays and believes referees called it correctly.
- Gottlieb built the roster with transfers like Kara Dunn and Londynn Jones, knowing Watkins’ status, and others stepped into new roles, according to USC forward Laura Williams.
- Dale Wendale Farrow, South Carolina staff assistant and former Gottlieb assistant, handles USC scouting, emphasizing resilience over dwelling on absences, as coaches stress moving on.
