It is always good to beat SC and the UCLA Women’s Basketball team did it twice last week. On Wednesday, the Bruins went across town and took out the USC Trojans at the Galen Center, 74-59.
Monique Billings logged her 11th double-double of the season with 28 points and 11 rebounds, topped off with 4 steals and 1 block. Jordin Canada added in 15 points and 6 assists.
Yesterday, they got the “W” in a closer contest as the Bruins won 71-67 at Pauley Pavilion. The Trojans had been within 2 points for the majority of the 4th quarter, and even trailed by a point with 21 seconds left in the game, but late free throws from Kennedy Burke and Canada kept the game out of reach.
