COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina coach Dawn Staley wants to see how her younger, less experienced team handles its road work. The top-ranked Gamecocks have a two-game road trip to the Tar Heel State, first to play No. 24 North Carolina on Thursday night in the ACC/SEC Challenge. Then they will take on Duke on Sunday. South Carolina has been high-scoring and focused so far in starting 5-0. This will be the first time they will be tested by the environment, even though they opened the season with a splash, a 100-71 win over ranked Notre Dame in Paris.
