South Carolina re-entered the women's Associated Press Top 25 poll at No. 24, following the Gamecocks' first victory over Tennessee since 1980, and first-ever win in Knoxville, Tenn.

USC spent a week ranked 24th in January after an eight-game winning streak. But then the Gamecocks lost three straight to fall out of the Top 25.

South Carolina guard Markeshia Grant was named the SEC player of the week. She scored a career-high 27 points in USC's victory over Tennessee, hitting seven 3-pointers.
