Episode Notes

The University of South Carolina’s women’s basketball team started this season ranked No. 1. 

So, it wasn’t a surprise when the team beat Creighton on Sunday, securing their place in the Final Four.

But, as the team would say, they still have work to do. 

They came into this season with a goal of winning a national championship. To get there, they’ll have to win two more games this weekend in Minneapolis. 

This week, we're talking about this team and what's made them No. 1 in the country. David Clonginger, who covers Gamecock sports for The Post and Courier, breaks it all down for us.
