The USC Trojans suffered a significant blow in their Big Ten Tournament second-round game against the Washington Huskies, losing 76-64. This defeat has cast doubt on their NCAA Tournament seeding.
Compounding the loss, freshman guard Jazzy Davidson is undergoing an MRI for an apparent arm injury. While she returned to the game, finishing with eight points, her status moving forward is unknown.
Londynn Jones led USC with 19 points in the game. The Trojans have now lost four straight, holding a 17-13 overall record. Previously projected as a No. 8 seed, their NCAA Tournament placement is now uncertain, with projections suggesting a slide to a No. 9 to 11 seed.
Despite injuries to key players like JuJu Watkins last season, USC had high expectations. Davidson has been a key player this season, averaging 17.9 points. The team now awaits the NCAA Tournament selection show on Sunday, March 15, at 5 p.m. PT.
