South Carolina Women’s Basketball Team Refused to Take Court During National AnthemWarner Todd Huston 3 Apr 2022
Ahead of Friday’s NCAA Final Four tournament game, the South Carolina Gamecocks refused to take the court and remained in the locker room during the playing of the national anthem.
As the strains of the Star-Spangled Banner filled the stadium, only the Gamecocks’ opponents, the Louisville Cardinals, stood on the sidelines, Insider reported.
The top-ranked South Carolina women’s basketball team has been protesting against the country since January of last year and typically stays in the locker room during the anthem.
Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley recently exclaimed that the team protests during the anthem “to bring awareness to racial injustice in our country,” she told the website Andscape back in January.
