🔼 Friday Night Lights. The Trojans will face off against Rutgers for the first time in program history on Friday, October 25 at 8 p.m. with the game airing on FOX. The home game will be one of USC football’s six home games during their inaugural season in the Big Ten conference.

🔼 Growing Family. USC men’s basketball is welcoming its newest signee to join the program for the 2024-25 season, Chibuzo Agbo. The San Diego native spent the last two seasons in the Mountain West, shooting better than 40% from beyond the arc. The 33-game starter was named an All-Mountain West Honorable Mention after finishing the season as one of two players in the conference to shoot 50% on 2-pointers and 41% on 3-pointers.

🔼 Closing Court. The Women of Troy’s time at the 2024 NCAA Individual Championships came to a close on Tuesday as USC suffered losses in both the singles and doubles rounds of 32. Grace Piper took her singles match to three sets but was unable to come out on top while Emma Charney and Eryn Cayetano put up a late rally but ultimately came up short. USC will be back in action in the fall as the Trojans gear up for their inaugural year in the Big Ten.
