South Carolina Basketball: Three thumbs up, three thumbs down from last night’s Wofford exhibition
By Kevin Miller
In case you missed it, South Carolina basketball took on the Wofford Terriers at Colonial Life Arena in a charity exhibition last night.
It was a tale of two halves for the Gamecocks as Lamont Paris’ squad was horrible in the 1st half, getting outscored 34-17. However, after the halftime intermission, the Gamecocks dominated. The home team was able to come all the way back and win the game, and it wasn’t the most likely suspects who led the charge.
While former Wofford Terrier BJ Mack helped keep the Gamecocks afloat offensively in the first 23 minutes of action, other players handled the majority of the scoring down the stretch as South Carolina basketball fans witnessed a very impressive comeback from the garnet and black.
The final score was 60-57, meaning that Coach Paris’ team outplayed Wofford 43-23 in the second stanza, an impressive margin against any opponent.
With one good half and one bad half, there was plenty for fans to be excited about and plenty more that has Gamecock Nation worried as the season officially begins next week.
What are three thumbs up and three thumbs down from the Gamecocks’ exhibition win over Wofford?
