USC came into Wednesday's game with defending national champion Tennessee ready to surprise the Lady Volunteers with a win. But an upset wasn't in the cards for the Lady Gamecocks. The Lady Volunteers showed Frank McGuire Arena's spectators why Tennessee is ranked fourth in the country by rallying trom a 1/-point halltimc uclicit to triumph ^ over the Lady Gamecocks 85-80. Tennessee was lucky to escape from the arena with the w>"USC guard Martha Parker missed three crucial free throws near the end of the game, while Tennessee shot 80 percent from the line to seal the win. v |? gwMHHgp; .-vi a * \. | -"flst?tjassS,'."

"I thought our girls did a tremendous job," Wilson said. "I was very proud of them because I felt like Tennessee had to earn the win. I am extremely pleased with the way the Lady Gamecocks played." Pat Summitt, Tennessee's head coach, lauded the way the Lady Gamecocks gave her team all they could handle. "It was not an easy win. I think South Carolina did an excellent job of preparing their team for our defense," Summitt said. "They made some impressive shots with defensive pressure on them." Summitt probably had one particular Lady Gamecock in mind when she referred to impressive shots. USC freshman Karen Middleton hit a phenomenal seven three-point shots out of 12 attempts. She finished the game with a team-high 25 points. s M v -~ BOT& >M I j| B^Si p '-.7-Kstx- ' UK pw1* - tT ?!X fe * ^ ..w~ JENNIFER STEIB/The Gamecoa nesday, scoring 14 points in 23 minutes as USC won 88-71. f ( ! . 1: i i .w .

Wilson blamed herself for placing that physical burden on Parker. But Parker said she can't use fatigue as an excuse for missing free throws. "I take full responsibility for missing those," Parker said. Tennessee played a tough, physical defense the entire game. They opened play in a full-court press and stayed in a man-to-man defense. The Lady Volunteers banged the Lady Gamecocks on the inside, using their height advantage at each position to out-rebound USC 44-35. Parker put the Lady Gamecocks ahead 80-79 on a 15-foot bank shot with 1:26 left in the game. After a timeout, Tennessee's Lisa Webb hit a free throw, tying the game at 80.
