Theres also a home game Dec. 18 against No. 9 UCLA.Kaela Davis, the Georgia Tech transfer, scored 14 points, going 4-of-4 on three pointers. She said the teams runaway wins over the past three days -- the Gamecocks topped Hampton 92-38 on Sunday and Maine 79-42 on Monday night -- have helped the team develop flow and revealed deficiencies to work on at practice.Obviously, with our three-game stretch weve got coming up, we need to fine tune a lot of things, Davis said.Davis got the Gamecocks off quickly with a 3-pointer from the right corner. Allisha Gray and Bianca Cuevas-Moore also had early 3s and the Gamecocks led 13-2 four minutes in.

St. Peters was out-rebounded by South Carolina 27-7 in the first two quarters and committed 12 turnovers. They let the Gamecocks shoot better than 68 percent in the first half. It looks like another long season for the Peacocks.South Carolina: The Gamecocks showed they be dangerous from the outside, too, to go along with their post success. Davis hit all four of her first-half 3-pointers. All seven Gamecocks who took shots in the first two quarters had a shooting percentage over .500. If South Carolina can knock down outside shots, it will add to the effectiveness of 6-5 Wilson and 6-4 Coates down low.POLL IMPLICATIONSFor South Carolina, its simple: Beat Louisville and stay No. 3 or higher. Lose to the Cardinals on Sunday and expect to slide down a few notches.HOT SHOOTINGThe Gamecocks finished with season highs in field goal shooting and three-point shooting. South Carolina hit 37 of 66 shots (56.1 percent) from the field while making 10 of 24 shots (41.7 percent) from behind the arc.SHE SAID ITFor me, its about bringing these kids to experience this environment.
