The UConn women's basketball team put on a show, storming into Columbia on Sunday afternoon to dominate South Carolina and put an end to the Gamecocks' 71-game home winning streak.

Huskies superstar freshman Sarah Strong played a key role in the upset win, recording a double-double with 16 points and 13 boards, while Azzi Fudd led the team in scoring with a game-high 28 points.

One person who was in the crowd at Colonial Life Arena and loving every moment was Strong's mother Allison Feaster, a former WNBA player and teammate of South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley with the Charlotte Sting.
