Recap from Reign of Troy:

“USC nearly scored 100 points, but stretches when they kept shooting but failed to score allowed UCSB to stay competitive.

Meanwhile, USC allowed the Gauchos their highest scoring total of the season so far, shooting 45.5% from the field.

Ultimately, the outing showed just why the Trojans are such an intriguing prospect this season.”
