it wasn't the ending they wanted but gamecock fans helped the women's basketball team make history tonight giving the program it's first sell out in colonial life arena. chad mills talked with fans after the game. gamecock fans left disappointed

but the ones i talked to weren't discouraged. in fact, some hope to see the uconn huskies again this year in the tournament. of course, tonight's big game between number- one uconn and number- two usc was a sold-out occasion. fans lined up early some of them in the cold rain and were cheering loudly even before tip-off. during the game, they continued cheering, hoping to spur the gamecocks into a momentum swinging run, but unfortunately, that never happened. some fans told me they hoped to see usc become as effective as uconn on the court going into the tournament. others remarked at just how good uconn's breanna stewart is in fact late in the game, the crowd cheered sarcastically when she was called for her first foul and missed a free throw. ultimately, gamecock fans are still hoping for a championship while uconn fans are too. "we just came up short. we had a lot of missed shots, but i love that the girls

level up the whole game, and i was really proud of them that even they, once that it was, you know, the last five minutes, that they still kept trying so hard and giving it their all. you saw them really push it." "it's hard to put into words. they're just always moving around. they're always keeping the ball moving. they're never stopping for a moment to say, 'hey!' they're always shooting balls. i don't know hoto put it into words. i just love watching them play." ultimately, fans say they'll be ready to cheer on the gamecocks again this thursday against the florida gators. live at the colonial life arena, chad mills, wis news 10.
