COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Chloe Kitts had 14 points and seven rebounds to lead No. 1 South Carolina to a 95-44 win over East Carolina on Sunday for the Gamecocks’ 42nd straight victory.

MiLaysia Fulwiley and freshman Joyce Edwards added 12 points apiece as the Gamecocks (4-0) finished with five players in double figures on the way to their 61st consecutive home win.

All 12 players who hit the court scored for the Gamecocks. South Carolina opened a 13-0 lead and put away the Pirates (2-2).

As the lead grew, South Carolina coach Dawn Staley mixed and matched her players, twice even using a full, hockey-style line change to sub out all five Gamecocks on the court.
