Oklahoma’s first meeting with Dawn Stalely’s South Carolina game went about as poorly as anyone could imagine. The No. 2-ranked Gamecocks pummeled Jennie Baranczyk’s No. 13 Sooners. South Carolina jumped out on OU in the first quarter and stepped on the Sooners’ neck to win 101-60 on Sunday at the Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, SC.

The Gamecocks jumped on OU from the start and never really let up en route to a 101-60 blowout in Columbia, South Carolina. “We were a little too amped,” Sooners coach Jennie Baranczyk said on the postgame radio show.

Verhulst scored a career-high 38 points — the fifth-most in program history — to lift the No. 13 Sooners to an 80-63 win over the Tigers at Lloyd Noble Center. “I think it came from the offense, the looks and a lot of times maybe it didn’t look like it because I’d been settling more for threes,” Verhulst said.
