COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Kaela Davis stepped up to the challenge, as did No. 6 South Carolina in putting away any lingering concerns about its loss last time out.Davis, who started the previous seven games, had six 3-pointers coming off the bench and scored 22 points as the Gamecocks routed Minnesota 98-58 Sunday.South Carolina coach Dawn Staley was concerned about her teams lack of defense in a 74-63 loss at Duke last week and spent practices stressing technique, so much so that she swapped out starters Davis and Bianca Cuevas-Moore for Doniyah Cliney and Tyasha Harris.So when Davis finally got in, she made it count with her second-best scoring performance this season.Obviously, Coach made a decision and whenever that decision is made, its our job to respond, Davis said. Thats what I had to do and that was my purpose.Overall, the Gamecocks (7-1) tightened things up by holding Minnesota (7-4) to under 30 percent shooting.Leading scorer Carlie Wagner, averaging 20 points a game coming in, was just 1-of-12 shooting for a season-low six points.They did a good job of crowding her and not giving her a lot of open looks, Golden Gophers coach Marlene Stollings said.Exactly what Staley had hoped for. She didnt count on the 16 3-pointers -- a high for Staleys nine seasons -- which was one off the program record set against Western Carolina in 1994.Davis, a Georgia Tech transfer, was in the middle of that, too. She hit five of her first six shots from behind the arc as the Gamecocks built a 57-27 halftime lead.Kenisha Bell led Minnesota with 16 points.Alaina Coates had 16 points and 11 rebounds, her fifth double-double of the season and 47th of her career. She also had four of South Carolinas nine blocks.Gray made four 3s and added a team-high seven assists.The Gamecocks used a 15-0 start and an 18-0 run in the second quarter to put it away.BIG PICTUREMinnesota: The Golden Gophers won 20 or more games the past three seasons and won 11 Big Ten Conference games the last two years under Stollings. But those teams featured conference players of the year in Amanda Zahui B. (2015) and Rachel Banham. Minnesota hasnt yet developed the inside game to go along with Wagners scoring and will have to do it with quick -- it starts league play at Ohio State on Dec. 28.South Carolina: Cuevas-Moore played turnover-free as the Gamecocks built a big lead while holding Minnesota to 25 percent (7 of 28) shooting the first two quarters.LETTING IT FLYStaley preaches going inside with 6-foot-5 Aja Wilson and 6-4 Coates underneath. But shes OK with her players taking and making open shots as they did against Minnesota.Were in a groove, were going to take them, she said. Ive never put handcuffs on any of our players as far as shooting the basketball.COLD LIKE MINNESOTAThe Golden Gophers were held to their second-worst shooting performance of the season, making just 18 of 63 shots (28.6 percent). The only poorer showing came in a 70-58 loss to Georgia last month when they shot 27.1 percent. Stollings said her team, which includes nine newcomers, was a bit overwhelmed facing the talented Gamecocks. Stollings said the team will quickly move past this and improve.UP NEXTMinnesota: Home for two games and plays Belmont on Wednesday night.South Carolina: Faces rival Clemson, a surprise undefeated team, on Thursday night.Yeezy Schuhe Größentabelle .

The team wasnt aware of the injury until recently, and Jordan didnt elaborate to the media Sunday on how he was injured.Him coming in here, that [injury] was news to us, Gase said. When you dont have contact with somebody for as long as we did, you dont know every little detail of whats going on. So that was the decision that we had to make and well see how every goes moving forward.Jordan was conditionally reinstated by the NFL following his one-year suspension for violating the NFLs substance-abuse policy. The move to the NFI list also has financial implications for Jordan. He would have been due a roster bonus of $1.69 million on the fifth day of the league year if he were on the active roster. However, being put on the NFI list means Jordan will not cash in on that bonus on Monday.Jordan hasnt played a game since December 2014 and has a lot of catching up to do. He is expected to join a deep group of defensive ends that includes veteran Andre Branch and former Pro Bowl players Mario Williams and Cameron Wake. An area where Jordan also can eventually help iss special teams.ddddddddddddIm happy to be in the building. Its a lot of new faces, Jordan said. Things seem kind of brand new. For me, Im excited to be here and around the guys in the locker room and have the opportunity to compete.Jordan said he was always confident that he would return.I never had doubt. Im a hard worker on the field, first of all, he said. I feel theyve seen that with my play that I was doing while I was here. But Im just a good person overall. I had a couple of bumps and Ive had to overcome them. Thats part of my journey as a person first of all and as a football player second.Jordan also said he missed the game.It was tough. All of it was tough, I feel, being away from the game the whole year, he said. But I knew I wanted to come back and I wanted to prove to myself first and foremost, and other people in this organization that I can be a big factor once I get out here. So I just put my mind to it. I trained real hard and Im here.The Dolphins also activated veteran running back Arian Foster from the physically unable to perform list. Sunday will mark his first practice with his new team after spending seven seasons with the Houston Texans. ' ' '
