Florida State women’s basketball (5-9, 0-2 ACC) snapped its five-game losing streak Saturday with an 89-41 rout of South Carolina State (3-11) at the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center.
The Seminoles controlled all four quarters, dominating in points and on the glass. FSU outrebounded the Bulldogs 61-35 while shooting 42 percent from the field (30 of 72) and 29 percent from 3-point range (6 of 29). Every Seminole recorded at least one rebound for the third time this season.

Three players scored in double figures, and two posted double-doubles. Graduate guard Jasmine Shavers led the way with a season-high 29 points and 12 rebounds. The Texas Tech transfer surpassed 1,500 career points and was perfect at the free-throw line (11 of 11). She shot 7 of 13 from the field and 4 of 6 from beyond the arc.
Junior forward Pania Davis added her second career double-double with 14 points and a career-best 16 rebounds. Sole Williams was the third-leading scorer with 14 points. Avery Treadwell came off the bench to grab 11 rebounds, along with six points and one block.
