ICYMI: Mitchell breaks 3-point record in busy week of hoops

NEW YORK (AP) — There was a feast of women's college basketball over the Thanksgiving week.

Tournaments in Las Vegas, Florida and Mexico pitted some of the nation's best players and teams against each other.

The game of the week featured No. 3 South Carolina playing sixth-ranked Notre Dame in the final of the Gulf Coast Showcase. The Irish came away with a 92-85 victory, rallying from a 12-point, second-quarter deficit.

"Our young team, this is great for them," South Carolina coach Dawn Staley said. "As much as you try to tell them there's another level of competition out there, until they face it — in defeat — that's when the learning takes place.
