ATHENS, Ga. ? No. 13 Georgia's 42-40 win against No. 18 South Carolina Sunday marked a new low in school history: The fewest points ever in a victory.

Previously, the fewest points the Lady Dogs had ever scored in a win was in DeKalb College 43-42 on Jan. 17, 1974, the first win in program history.

Georgia (15-2, 3-1 SEC) got 19 points from Jasmine Hassell in the defensive struggle. South Carolina (14-3, 2-2) also got 19 from Aleighsa Welch. The Gamecocks scored only one field goal in the last 13 minutes of the game.

?It's a shame somebody had to lose this game because both teams played extremely hard, and it's what our league is all about,? said South Carolina coach Dawn Staley.

The Gamecocks missed all 11 3-point field goal attempts and made only half of 16 free throw attempts. Both teams were turnover prone: South Carolina had 24 and Georgia 21.

?They are really good defensively,? said Georgia coach Andy Landers. ?Thursday night they held Vanderbilt to 13 field goals in the whole game.?

Boston College 66, Clemson 43: In Clemson, the women's basketball team (4-12, 0-5) remained winless in ACC play. The Lady Tigers' Quinyotta Pettaway had 10 points and 11 rebounds for her fifth double-double of the season.
