It wasn’t easy, but No. 18 Tennessee found a way to hold off South Carolina on Tuesday night to get back into the win column with a 70-67 victory. The Vols led by as much as 13 points in the second half, but the Gamecocks could not be put away and made it a one-point game with 21.5 seconds to go.
But luckily for the Vols, their best player came to play.
Grant Williams nailed a turnaround jumper in the paint to give Tennessee a 70-67 lead with 11 seconds to go, and the Vols were able to prevent South Carolina from tying it up on the other end to get the win.
Here are our best photos from Tennessee’s ugly but gutsy victory on Tuesday night. All photos were captured by RTI photography Anne Newman.
