Shout frantically over woman in a state (5,8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

south carolina

'a state' is the definition.
(I know that South Carolina is a state)

'shout frantically over woman' is the wordplay.
'frantically' is an anagram indicator.
'over' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, some letters go over others).
'woman' becomes 'carolina' ().
'shout' anagrammed gives 'south'.
'south'+'carolina'='SOUTH CAROLINA'

'in' is the link.

(Another definition for south carolina that I've seen is " State of south-east US".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
