TONIGHT
WOMEN
PACIFIC 10 CONFERENCE
USC (16-9, 9-5) at Oregon (11-15, 5-10), 7 p.m. – The Women of Troy have a three-game winning streak after holding UCLA to its lowest output ever in a 49-36 victory. Nadia Parker scored 18, and Allison Jaskowiak and Camille LeNoir had four steals apiece. If the Trojans are to sweep the season series over Oregon, turnovers could be critical: USC is third in the conference in turnover margin (plus-1.8), Oregon is last (minus-4.0). USC and Oregon each won at home last season, and the Trojans won earlier this season at the Galen Center, 46-42. Taylor Lilley, who prepped at Newhall Hart, leads Oregon with a 12.3 scoring average. The Ducks swept the Washington schools last weekend, ending a seven-game losing streak.

UCLA (13-12, 8-6) at Oregon State (10-16, 3-12), 7 – The Bruins tied a team record for the lowest-scoring output Sunday in a 49-36 loss to visiting USC. They have been playing good defense, however, leading the conference in rebounding, steals and opponent shooting percentage (38.4%), which would rank as the third-lowest percentage in team history. Oregon State’s Ashley Allen is second in the conference with a 16.2 scoring average.
