Top-ranked Gamecocks beat Bruins

Aliyah Boston, looking healthy as ever, had 18 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks as No. 1 South Carolina rallied from 10 points down to beat No. 15 UCLA 73-64 on Tuesday night in Columbia, S.C.

Boston had missed the second half in a win over Hampton on Sunday after a hard fall. She returned to the bench in that game with a walking boot on her right foot.

She started and played 35 minutes against the Bruins (7-1) to help the Gamecocks (7-0) overcome a 31-21 deficit right before halftime to win their 17th straight over a ranked opponent.

It was Boston's 65th career double-double and 32nd against a ranked opponent.

Charisma Osborne led UCLA with 24 points. Freshman Kiki Rice scored 16.

#8 Iowa State 93, SIU-Edwardsville 43: Lexi Donarski scored 22 points as the host Cyclones (6-1) recovered in style 48 hours after absorbing their first loss — to North Carolina in Portland, Ore., on Sunday. #11 LSU 63, Southeastern Louisiana 55: Angel Reese had 25 points and 11 rebounds for the host Tigers (8-0), who led by 21 early in the third quarter before withstanding a comeback bid by the Lady Lions (4-3).
