South Carolina coach Dawn Staley applauds Sania Feagin for an awesome defensive game

South Carolina coach Dawn Staley hailed senior forward Sania Feagin for holding her ground on defense. Feagin started for the Gamecocks and finished with eight points, nine rebounds, three assists, one steal and season-best six blocks.

The veteran coach applauded how the 6-foot-3 forward kept her feet above the big players of Texas and was directing the defensive plays perfectly.

"She had a pretty good game, I mean, from a statistical standpoint, but all the other stuff, the intangibles. She always kept her feet above the bigs. She was communicating out there and directing," Staley said (per On3).

Dawn Staley also gave her props to the team's defense on Texas' top scorer Madison Booker, who was held to seven points, on 3-of-19 shooting. Staley thought the defense employed on Booker was enough to force her to take ill-advised shots.

It was the fifth win for the Gamecocks against a Top 25 team this season. They remain unbeaten in the SEC regular season with a 4-0 mark and 16-1 overall. They'll be back in action on Thursday night against Alabama.
