A South‑Carolina‑crafted victory
The Indiana Fever posted a decisive 111‑87 win over the Los Angeles Sparks on Saturday, a performance that underscored the team’s depth and defensive intensity.
At the heart of the victory were Aliyah Boston and Tyasha Harris, both alumni of the University of South Carolina. Boston contributed 17 points and seven rebounds, while Harris added 16 points, five rebounds and three assists, stepping into the lineup in place of the injured Caitlin Clark.
The bench proved equally potent. Bree Hall knocked down a timely three‑pointer that sparked the crowd, and Raven Johnson orchestrated the offense with four assists, highlighting the chemistry among the South Carolina‑scented roster.
Coach Stephanie White praised the collective effort, noting that the Fever’s defensive schemes and the players’ shared background created a cohesive unit that could thrive even without Clark.
The win not only adds a strong early‑season entry to the Fever’s record but also signals a promising trajectory for a squad built around talent nurtured in Columbia, South Carolina.
