South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley had some strong claims following her team's SEC Championship. While the women's conference championships are decided, they are waiting until Sunday to find out who will be seeded for the NCAA tournament.

After the South Carolina women’s basketball team blew out top-ranked Texas in Sunday’s SEC championship game, the Gamecocks should be the No. 1 overall seed in this month’s NCAA Tournament. Not a No. 1 seed. The No. 1 seed.

Dawn Staley and the South Carolina Gamecocks have once again asserted their dominance in the SEC, capturing their ninth tournament title in eleven years. This latest victory over the No. 1 Texas Longhorns shows the team’s resilience and strategic prowess under Staley’s leadership.
