South Carolina will take on TCU on Monday in the Elite Eight

The Gamecocks (34-3) are looking for their sixth consecutive Final Four appearance.

South Carolina lost the regular-season matchup between the teams 94-82 in overtime Jan. 22.

In their NCAA Tournament matchup, though, the Gamecocks never gave the Sooners a chance for any kind of a late push.

Latson helped make sure of that, hitting a jumper on the opening possession, nailing a 3-pointer shortly thereafter, then hitting three free throws after being fouled less than three minutes into the game to put her team up 10-0.

Oklahoma briefly cut the deficit to six, but after the first quarter, South Carolina’s lead never dipped below double figures.

Latson finished 7 of 11 from the floor with five assists. The Gamecocks shot 50.7% from the floor.

Raven Johnson added 18 points on 8-of-11 shooting, and Tessa Johnson scored 14.

The Sooners (26-8) were led by freshman Aaliyah Chavez, who had 21 points. Oklahoma finished with a season-low nine assists, while South Carolina had 21 on 34 field goals.
