The Trojans tried to rekindle some of the fire from the early season on Sunday against LMU in their third division game of the season. USC came out looking like a much different team than they have in past weeks and were tied at the end of the first 1-1. The Trojans continued to play with this passion through the end of the half remaining close. However, USC let their focus slip in the third to allow LMU a four goal streak. It appeared that it was over for the Trojans until late in the fourth when they came back with their own four goal streak but it was too little too late. The Trojans lost 11-8.

USC’s next game is their final division game vs. UCSB away on Saturday, April 15th at 7:00pm at USC on Cromwell Field.

USC traveled to San Diego Saturday to take on the 2005 Division B Champion USD squad. USD came out firing right from the start and the Trojans were never able to catch back up. Despite many great shots from the offense the USD goalie was stopping almost everything thrown at him. The Trojans lost the contest 15-3.

The Trojan’s next game is another division game vs. LMU away on Sunday, April 9th at 1:00pm at LMU.

On Friday night USC stayed close in the opening quarter to a very tough Chapman squad but was soon riddled with penalty after penalty. The Trojans spent close to a quarter playing man-down, despite this disadvantage they made a late rally in the fourth quarter but it just wasn’t enough and fell to Chapman 16-9 in their second division game. Then two days later the Trojans travelled to Claremont. USC was able to remain close throughout the whole game but just never could quite catch Claremont and ended up losing 11-6.

USC broke out to a early 3-1 lead. UCLA then came back and eventually tied it up 4-4. The Bruins then went on a small run, making the score 8-6 at half. In the second half both teams came out fired up, playing in a very physical battle. Freshman midfielder Corey Janoff held is own at the face off X, as he went against one of the best in the WCLL. Kai Sato had five goals on six shots.An exciting game in which UCLA came out on top.
