I USC's hopes J
From staff reports
For a half it looked as if the Lady bl
Gamecocks might pull off the upset g<
I of the year in women's basketball. le
But the Texas Lady Longhorns ct
ended any notions of an upset in the SI
making Sunday with a brief second- w
iiuu suigc. icxus sioppca ust s ir
quest for the national championship
77-58 in Austin, Texas in the second w
round of the NCAA women's basket- th
ball tournament. H
USC', which ended the season at
23-11, held close in the first half. A \A
jumper by sophomore center Lisa e;
Diaz at the buzzer enabled the Lady f<
Gamecocks to go into the locker rt
room at halftime down by only four, tl
34-30. tc
Head coach Nancy Wilson packed le
in her team's defense and forced
Texas to shoot from the outside. The a
tactic worked as USC also out- a:
rebounded the taller Lady T
Longhorns, 19-17. st
But Texas, 31-2, stepped up their ai
defensive pressure and went on a 10-0 g
run to jump out to a lead which USC
could never seriously challenge. g
Pf The Lady Gamecocks knew they r<
were facing an uphill battle before tl
Sunday's game. L
The Lady Longhorns beat defen- o
ding national champion Tennessee T
on the Lady Volunteers home court
earlier this season. USC lost to Ten- se
nessee 85-80 Jan. 20 at Frank W
McGuire Arena. P<
USC was led by Metro Conference cc
Player of the Year Martha Parker Si
with 15 points. Freshman guard
Karen Middleton added 14 and sc
? senior forward Monica Williams ad- M
