Horn homecoming sweet one for USC

Gamecocks pull out comeback victory at WKU in double overtime Prior to USC’s contest against Western Kentucky, coach Darrin Horn expressed some concern about how his Gamecocks would match up against the Hilltoppers. “The scary thing about their team is they have a lot of guys that can really play,” said Horn, who called WKU home for much of his basketball career — playing for WKU from 1991-95 and coaching the Hilltoppers from 2003-08. “They’re undersized but athletic. Those guys can put it on the perimeter and score on the floor. It’s a tough place to play. It has been for 50 years. It’s exactly the kind of challenge that we need right now for our team.”
