The South Carolina men's basketball team took their 2-1 record on the road to face off against a hot 16th ranked Indiana Hoosiers team at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. A back and forth affair saw ended with the Hoosiers notching their third win of the year.

Lamont Paris' squad was down 15 at one point during the second half, but battled back to get the game within single digits with just 1:19 left in the game. Unfortunately for South Carolina, there wasn't enough time left, as the Hoosiers were too much down the stretch for the Gamecocks to overcome.

Sophomore Morris Ugusuk led South Carolina in scoring with 18 points. Four Gamecocks finished in double digits. Forward Nick Pringle finished with a double-double, 13 points and 11 rebounds.

The (2-2) South Carolina Gamecocks will return home on Thursday November 21 to take on the Mercer Bears at Colonial Life Arena.
