With just seven seconds remaining, South Carolina held a 52-50 lead and had possession after Duke missed a 3-point attempt.

Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley called a timeout and designed a play that would put the ball in Kitts’ hands. However, Kitts admitted she had doubts about taking on the responsibility.

“Coach (Dawn Staley) drew up the play and she said the ball was going to get to me,” Kitts recalled, as per Bradenton Herald. “I walked out there and I was like, ‘Pao, can you get the ball? Can you get the ball?’”

She was hoping to shift the responsibility to her teammate, but Pao responded, "Girl, what? Go get the ball."

Kitts eventually stuck to the play, as she received the ball and was fouled. As she stepped up to the free-throw line, she admitted giving herself a pep talk.

“I told myself that I’m really good at basketball, and I made both of them,” she said.

The Gamecocks will now prepare for the Final Four, where they will face the winner of Monday’s Elite Eight matchup between No. 1 Texas and No. 2 TCU.
