COLUMBIA, S.C. -- After two transfer newcomers help pull No. 4 South Carolina to an opening win, two returning veterans moved into the spotlight to lead the Gamecocks to a 92-38 win over Hampton on Sunday.Alaina Coates scored 28 points and had 16 rebounds and her fellow frontcourt player Aja Wilson added 20 as South Carolina (2-0) used a decided size advantage to breeze past the Pirates (0-4).In the opening win over Ohio State, all-Atlantic Coast Conference transfer Kaela Davis scored 37 points. The former Georgia Tech star had just three on Sunday. But with a solid roster, Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley expects a different star most nights.If everybody wants to be in the spotlight -- theres not enough room, Staley said.Allisha Gray, the transfer from North Carolina who Staley calls her silent assassin, had 16 points after debuting for South Carolina with 24 against the Buckeyes.Hampton (0-4) trailed just 21-15 at the end of the first quarter and pulled down one rebound more than the Gamecocks. I thought that was disgraceful, Staley said.So Staley challenged her players to dominate inside. They were helped because two of the Pirates tallest players Kaylah Lupoe and Monnazjea Finney-Smith each ended the first quarter with three fouls. Coates had 14 points in the quarter, while Wilson made all eight of her free throws as South Carolina pulled away with a 32-11 run, outscoring Hampton 18-2 in the paint in the quarter.Theres really nothing you can do. It is what it is with the fouls, Hampton coach David Six said.Coates 28 points were one off her career high, and Wilson made all 14 of her free throws, setting a school record for most makes without a miss.Malia Tate-Defreitas, the reigning Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference player of the year the past two seasons, led Hampton with 10 points.BIG PICTUREHampton: Six seemed to acknowledge his teams size disadvantage from the start, sending 5-foot-5 guard Georgianna Gilbeaux out for the opening tap, which she didnt even try to get against the 6-foot-5 Wilson. Hampton has played a Power 5 team in each of its first four games, losing by an average of 33 points. The Pirates are trying to win the MEAC for the first time since 2014, when they capped a five-year NCAA Tournament run.South Carolina: All 11 South Carolina players played at least 10 minutes, a nice luxury with three games in three days. The Gamecocks forced 24 turnovers and held Hampton to 24 percent shooting. South Carolinas reserves played almost the entire fourth quarter, holding the Pirates to just four points on 2-of-15 shooting.AILING AJAWilsons 14-of-14 day from the foul line masked another quiet night from the field. The first-team All-American was 3-for-8 from the field against Hampton after going just 1-of-3 struggling with foul trouble at Ohio State.Staley said Wilson is rusty because she spent most of her summer resting her shins, which bothered her at the end of last season, instead of playing basketball.Shes kind of paying for it right now. But she will work things out, Staley said.Others are welcome to shoot as much as they want, Wilson said. If were winning, Aja is happy, the junior said.POLL IMPLICATIONSSouth Carolina could move up from No. 4 on Monday after No. 2 Baylor lost to third-ranked Connecticut. But it is very possible poll voters wont punish the Bears. The Gamecocks arent likely to fall either..UP NEXTHampton: The Pirates take on Saint Peters on Monday in the second game of the Basketball Hall of Fame Womens Challenge.South Carolina: The Gamecocks play Maine on Monday in the second game of the Basketball Hall of Fame Womens Challenge.

NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahomas Baker Mayfield and Dede Westbrook will have an ideal stage as they make their final impressions on Heisman Trophy voters.The seventh-ranked Sooners host No. 11 Oklahoma State on Saturday in what amounts to a Big 12 title game. Mayfield and Westbrook want to take advantage as all eyes will be on just a few games and players during conference championship weekend.Mayfields situation was far less favorable last year. Though he and the Sooners were impressive in a 58-23 win over Oklahoma State in their regular-season finale, the quarterback missed a chance to impress voters because the Sooners were idle the next week as conference title games were being played. Mayfield didnt get an invitation to New York for the Heisman ceremony and finished fourth in the balloting. Coaches and players have said they feel the Sooners not playing the final weekend last season played a role in him not being invited.We knew he was supposed to be there, just as well as we know it again this year, Westbrook said.This year, the Sooners and Cowboys both were off the Saturday after Thanksgiving, pushing their rivalry game into December. Westbrook said Oklahomas primary focus is beating Oklahoma State, but the individual honors matter, and he likes the stage.Coming out this week, were going to make a statement to the country by, of course, competing to the best of our abilities against Oklahoma State, and showcasing to the world that both he (Mayfield) and I should be in the Heisman (finalists), Westbrook said.Mayfield, a finalist for the Maxwell and Davey OBrien Awards, leads the nation in passing efficiency (194.7) and yards per passing attempt (10.9) and ranks second inn the nation in completion percentage.dddddddddddd He has accounted for at least three touchdowns in all eight Big 12 games to lead the nations No. 2 scoring offense.Westbrook, a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award that honors the nations best receiver, got off to a slow start as he worked through a hamstring injury. He has bounced back with 1,200 yards and 15 touchdowns in eight Big 12 games. His 11 touchdown receptions of 40 yards or more this season match the most of any FBS player in the past 18 years.Westbrook has said for the past few weeks that Mayfield should win the Heisman. Mayfield said last week that he was flattered when he heard about Westbrooks praise.Its humbling, Mayfield said. Especially coming from a guy like that, as talented as he is. He deserves to be in New York at the end of the year. Im just trying to get him the passes he needs and the opportunities he can get to get him to that place. Its nice to have the support from your teammates, knowing they believe in you. It gives you a lot of trust.Offensive tackle Orlando Brown considers it his responsibility to help Mayfield and Westbrook get to New York.Its important, Brown said. As much as it means to those guys is as much as it means to me. Theyre not selfish guys. Them winning the Heisman -- Im in it for them. If thats what they want to do, Im out here every day working hard to put myself in the best position to help them.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/CliffBruntAP Cheap Jerseys 2019 Cheap NFL T-shirts Youth NFL Jerseys Wholesale Stitched Jerseys Discount NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap Stitched Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Discount NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Jerseys NFL Cheap Wholesale NFL Autographed Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping ' ' '
