South Carolina's Chloe Kitts delivered a standout performance, scoring 21 points on a perfect 9-of-9 shooting and grabbing 13 rebounds as the No. 1 seed Gamecocks cruised past Presbyterian 91-39 to kick off their March Madness campaign. Kitts, who had been looking to boost her confidence, showcased her scoring prowess in a game where she found her rhythm and capitalized on open looks.
The Gamecocks, missing two starters in Kamilla Cardoso and Bree Hall, leaned on Kitts' stellar showing to secure the victory. Cardoso was serving a one-game suspension, while Hall was sidelined for precautionary reasons. Despite the absences, South Carolina's depth and Kitts' performance proved pivotal in the win.
