The Gamecocks (3-0) opened their home season by unfurling the national championship banner celebrating their 38-0 title run last year. Then they went to work at keeping their perfect start to this season going strong.

Kitts, who missed Sunday’s win over No. 13 NC State with an academic issue, had her second double-double this season. Fulwiley had four of her team’s 10 3-pointers as the Gamecocks won their 60th straight at home.
