也許硬幣知道它在做什麼。南卡羅來納州需要一枚硬幣翻轉以與德克薩斯州的領帶打破領帶，以獲得SEC錦標賽的頂級種子

德克薩斯州以否。全美1支球隊，並假定在NCAA錦標賽中排名最高的種子。麥迪遜·布克（Madison Booker）是年度SEC球員，維克·謝弗（Vic Sc​​haefer）是年度最佳教練。

Maybe the coin knew what it was doing. After South Carolina needed a coin flip to break a tie with Texas for the top seed in the SEC Tournament, the Gamecocks went on to dominate the Longhorns 64-45 to win their ninth SEC Tournament title.

也許硬幣知道它在做什麼。在南卡羅來納州需要一枚硬幣翻轉才能與德克薩斯州的首席比賽中打破領帶，在SEC錦標賽中，Gamecocks繼續統治了Longhorns 64-45，以贏得了他們的第九次SEC錦標賽冠軍。

Texas (27-7) entered the game as no. 1 team in the nation and presumed top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. Madison Booker was the SEC Player of the Year, and Vic Schaefer was the Coach of the Year.

德克薩斯州（27-7）以否。全美1支球隊，並假定在NCAA錦標賽中排名最高的種子。麥迪遜·布克（Madison Booker）是年度SEC球員，維克·謝弗（Vic Sc​​haefer）是年度最佳教練。

Texas ended South Carolina’s (33-2) SEC-record 57-game SEC winning streak earlier in the season, earning a season split of the series.

德克薩斯州在本賽季早些時候結束了南卡羅來納州（33-2）的SEC記錄57連勝，獲得了系列賽的賽季賽。

But South Carolina got the rubber match, giving the Gamecocks two dominating wins over Texas and the first win over a no. 1 ranked team in program history. The win also likely clinched the top one seed in the Birmingham regions.

但是南卡羅來納州參加了橡膠比賽，為Gamecocks提供了兩次奪冠的勝利，並獲得了第一次勝利。計劃歷史上有1個排名的團隊。這場胜利可能還佔據了伯明翰地區的最高種子。

The Longhorns have struggled offensively for much of the past month, but the Gamecocks’ swarming, relentless defense brought Texas to new levels of futility. Texas tied the record for the fewest points scored in an SEC tournament championship game.

在過去一個月的大部分時間裡，長角牛隊一直在進攻端掙扎，但Gamecocks的蜂擁而至，無情的防守使得克薩斯州的新水平變得徒勞無功。德克薩斯州在SEC錦標賽冠軍賽中得分最少的得分並列得分。

Vic Schaefer dropped to 0-5 against Dawn Staley in SEC tournament finals, 0-1 in the Elite Eight, and 0-1 in the national championship.

維克·舍費爾（Vic Sc​​haefer）在SEC錦標賽決賽中對陣Dawn Staley的比賽降至0-5，精英八分為0-1，在全國冠軍賽中以0-1在0-1中。

 

South Carolina started off slowly as well, but it was only a matter of time before the good looks started going in.

南卡羅來納州也開始緩慢地開始，但是好外觀開始進入只是時間問題。

South Carolina held Texas scoreless for the first 6:31 of the second quarter. During that time, South Carolina’s lead ballooned from just two points to start the quarter to 17 points.

南卡羅來納州在第二季度的第一個6:31中保持得克薩斯州的得分無分。在此期間，南卡羅來納州的領先優勢從僅兩分開始，從本季度開始到17分。

“I think it was timely,” Dawn Staley said. “I think it was what we needed today. I think we needed to play a lot better than the last time that we played them.”

“我認為這是及時的，” Dawn Staley說。 “我認為這是我們今天需要的。我認為我們需要比上一次玩他們的比賽要好得多。”

Texas missed eight consecutive shots and turned the ball over four times during the run.

德克薩斯州連續八次射門錯過了跑步，在奔跑期間將球轉了四次。

“The ball was sticking on offense,” Schaefer said. “I couldn’t get them to flip the floor. Seemed like it was just sticking in our hands. Didn’t have any continuity offensively. Again, everything they got, they had 22 paint points at halftime of their 33, everything they were getting offensively was off the bounce. They were really attacking the paint.”

Schaefer說：“球一直在進攻上。” “我無法讓他們翻轉地板。好像它只是粘在我們手中。進攻沒有任何連續性。同樣，他們得到的一切，他們在33個中場休息時有22個油漆點，他們進攻的一切都彈跳了。他們真的在攻擊油漆。”

South Carolina beat Texas at its own game, scoring 40 points in the paint while sprinkling in three-pointers to keep the defense honest. 

南卡羅來納州在自己的比賽中擊敗了德克薩斯州，在油漆中獲得40分，同時撒在三分球中以保持誠實。

Tournament MVP Chloe Kitts scored 15 points and grabbed nine rebounds before exiting to a standing ovation with 1:04 left.

錦標賽MVP Chloe Kitts得到15分，並抓住了9個籃板，然後退出了1:04的站立鼓掌。

“I think Chloe is a dog,” Sania Feagin said. “I mean, inside, outside, whatever you give her, you tell her to go, she’s going to go and get that bucket. Total props to her, MVP. Well-deserved.”

“我認為克洛伊是一隻狗，”薩尼亞·費金說。 “我的意思是，在裡面，外面，無論你給她什麼，你告訴她去，她要去得到那個水桶。 MVP的總道具。當之無愧的。”

Sania Feagin added 11 points and six rebounds, including a three-pointer at the third-quarter buzzer. Joyce Edwards also scored 11. “Tournament” Tessa Johnson added 14 points, including 2-3 from three, and played outstanding defense on Booker.

Sania Feagin增加了11分和6個籃板，其中包括在第三季度蜂鳴器的三分球。喬伊斯·愛德華茲（Joyce Edwards）也獲得了11分。“錦標賽”泰莎·約翰遜（Tessa Johnson）增加了14分，其中包括三分之二，並在布克（Booker）中表現出色。

Texas beat South Carolina by dominating the glass in Austin, but South Carolina outrebounded the Longhorns by two on Sunday.

德克薩斯州通過在奧斯丁的玻璃杯中佔據主導地位，擊敗了南卡羅來納州，但南卡羅來納州在周日以兩人的距離擊敗了長角牛。

Despite missing part of the second quarter after getting elbowed in the face by a teammate, Rori Harmon was the only Longhorn who was able to consistently put the ball in the basket. She finished with 14 points.

儘管第二節被隊友肘部彎曲了第二節的一部分，但羅里·哈蒙（Rori Harmon）還是唯一能夠始終如一地將球放入籃筐的長角牛。她得到14分。

Booker finished with 10 points and 10 rebounds, but seven of her points came in fourth quarter garbage time, and she was 1-7 with two turnovers in the first three quarters. She finished just 4-13.

布克以10分和10個籃板的成績結束了比賽，但她的7分是第四季度垃圾時間，在前三個季度她的兩次失誤是1-7。她只完成了4-13。

Booker had seven points on 3-19 shooting in the first game. She got 20 points in the win in Austin but still shot just 7-22. She finished the season averaging 12.3 points on 14-54 (25.9%) shooting in the three games.

布克在第一場比賽中以3-19命中率得到7分。她在奧斯丁的勝利中獲得20分，但仍然只有7-22分。在三場比賽中，她在14-54（25.9％）的命中率上平均得到12.3分。

“I think (Hall) did great,” Feagin said. “When she has an assignment, she studies it, she takes her time to learn, what she needs to do. She asks questions. She goes out there and she does what she need to do.”

“我認為（霍爾）表現出色，”費金說。 “當她有作業時，她就讀了，她花時間學習，需要做什麼。她問問題。她走到那裡，做她需要做的事情。”

Kyla Oldacre averaged 12 points and 11 rebounds in the first two games but was held to just two points and two rebounds on Sunday.

在前兩場比賽中，凱拉·奧爾德克雷（Kyla Oldacre）平均得到12分和11個籃板，但周日僅獲得2分和2個籃板。
