The Ole Miss women’s basketball team scored just two points in the first half in Thursday’s 87-32 home loss to No. 1 South Carolina at the Pavilion in Oxford.
The Rebels didn’t score until their 31st possession of the game, late in the second quarter. Their offense improved a bit in the second half, but by then, the damage was done: The Gamecocks had a 32-2 halftime lead.
Mimi Reid finished with 12 points for the Rebels, and Deja Cage had six.
Ole Miss fell to 7-14 on the season and 0-8 in the Southeastern Conference. The Rebels will host Alabama at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Pavilion in Oxford.
