Missouri-Si
By Jeff Rogers
USC's men's basketball team used a
balanced scoring attack and a string of nine
unanswered points late in the first half last
night to beat Missouri-St Louis 85-62.
USC forward Jimmy Foster scored 16
points in the first half and finished the game
with 18 points to lead the Gamecocks. Junior
center Mike Brittain and freshman guard
Michael Foster finished close behind Jimmy
Foster with 16 and 14 points, respectively.
Despite trailing throughout the first half,
the Rivermen stayed close to USC for most
of the half, as they stayed within seven points
up until the six-minute mark.
THE GAMECOCKS pulled away with
1:54 left in the half, when freshman guard
Matt Mayes assisted Jimmy Foster to begin
the string of unanswered points. Jimmy
Foster tapped in a miss by Brad Jergenson at
the buzzer to give the Gamecocks a 44-28
lead at the half.
The late barrage in the half helped USC to
shoot 60 percent for the half. Missouri-St.
Louis shot just under 44 percent. In the
game, USC shot just over 60 percent while
the Rivermen shot 46 percent.
USC head basketball coach Bill Foster said
his team "couldn't get a good flow going on
offense."
"They (Missouri-St. Louis) ran a control
offense, and they didn't turn the ball over
much," Foster said. "They only had five turnovers
in the first half, and four of those
came late in the first half."
"I THINK we got a good break toward the
end of the first half when we went up by 16
points."
Foster said he was "really concerned with

made 15 of 28 free throw attempts with most
of the misses coming from Jimmy Foster,
who made four of 10 free throw attempts.
In the second half the Gamecocks led by as
much as 25 points while Foster experimented
with different lineups. Nine USC players
played more than 14 minutes and no player
stayed in longer than 27 minutes.
"We're still trying to cement who is going
to come in at the three, four and five spots,"
Foster said. "I'm a little cnnrerneH that wp
didn't get the production from some players
like we should have."
COACH FOSTER said Michael Foster
and Mayes both played well. "(Michael)
Foster didn't force things tonight. Mayes
played well, but he got very tired. Fle's been
out with three different injuries, and he
could only go full strength for about five
minutes."
USC will travel to Clemson Saturday for a
8 p.m. game against the Tigers. The game
will be telecast by the Raycom network.
