🔼 Keep On Rolling. The undefeated Women of Troy stayed winning after an 85-44 win against Cal Poly at the Galen Center. USC lead from wire-to-wire with none other than freshman phenom Juju Watkins leading the way with 30 points as she set a record for most 30-point games by a freshman just six games into the season. More history was had on the night as McKenzie Forbes reached 1,000 career points, marked by a buzzer beating three-pointer at the end of the third quarter.

The Trojans will be back in action on Sunday in LA as they face off against San Diego at 3:00 p.m.

🔼 Going For More. Fresh off the recent MPSF Tournament title, the No. 3 ranked USC men’s water polo team will look to capture the program’s 11th national championship heading into the NCAA tournament. The Trojans will host San Jose State in their home pool on Friday for a chance at a spot in the semifinals.

🔼 Home Sweet Home. Tonight, the Trojan men’s basketball team will tipoff in the first of their two remaining home games this calendar year against Eastern Washington. The Eagles come into the Galen Center with a 1-5 record, and the Trojans will look to improve their 4-2 record.

At the moment, USC is one of three teams to have three players averaging 14.5 points or more a game with Boogie Ellis (20.2), Isaiah Collier (18.2) and Kobe Johnson (14.8) leading the charge on offense.
