Oregon State falls to 8-5 on the season, and 0-2 in Pac-12 play, while the Trojans improve to 11-2, and 1-1 in conference play.
Jelena Mitrovic got the Beavers off to a good start by scoring the first four points of the game, but USC responded with a Destinyu Little three and a Kadi Sissoko jumper to take the lead. The Trojans kept the lead for the rest of the first, but the Beavers kept things close, with a pair of Bendu Yeaney free throws kept the Beavers only down 1, 11-10, after a low scoring opening quarter.
