Our Women of Troy basketball team played another home game at Galen Center against the Saint Mary's Gaels.
FIGHT ON, Women of Troy Basketball!
Our USC Men’s Basketball Team played our second Pac-12 game against the Oregon State Beavers tonight. We had already won our first Pac-12 game of the season when we beat Cal up north 66-51.
Our starting lineup came next followed by the tip off.
In addition to the basketball action, there was action in the stands! Trojan Candy saw our quarterback Caleb Williams sit in the next section to mine. He was still limping from the injury he suffered in the Utah game. During the next time out, I jumped into action. I walked up and down to where he was sitting and went right up to him and asked, “Can I take your picture?” With a smile, he said, “Yes.” However, when I took his picture, Caleb didn’t smile. We spoke for a little bit. I gave Caleb my trojancandy.com card and wished him “Good Luck” with the Heisman Trophy! FIGHT ON, Caleb!
During the next break in the action, The USC Dance Force performed.
During a timeout, Trojan Candy enjoyed talking with my USC Alum friend Justyn Wilson, who sat across from me. Justyn brought his younger son Wade to the game. What a cutie!
At halftime the score was Oregon State 34 – USC 23.
The USC Song Girls always perform during the half time.
Luckily, I had taken Caleb’s picture as soon as I did, because, during halftime, his two teammates and he moved to sit behind the south basket. No one else had easy access to take his picture. However, anyone who walked up to the barricade and called out Caleb’s name, Caleb would turn around and smile for a picture. Lucky me, I got the only close up, smile or not!
Our men played much better in the second half. Here are my pictures and videos of the second half of the game.
Trojan Candy has better pictures of Isaiah and his family.
