LOS ANGELES - Senior point guard Kristin Clark had a team-high 21 points -- including 15 in the first half -- and senior center Adrain Williams contributed 11 points and 14 rebounds to lead the USC women's basketball team to a 77-68 victory over Cal State Northridge Saturday night at the North Gym.
The Women of Troy (4-3) broke a three-game losing streak with the victory and had four players in double digits. The Matadors fell to 4-3 on the year.
Leading 39-33 at halftime, USC pulled away using an 8-0 run to open the second half. The Women of Troy led by as much as 15 points before the Matadors staged a comeback late in the game. Led by sophomore guard Edniesha Curry, Northridge closed to within five points at 71-66 with 3:26 to play, but came no closer. Curry led the Matadors with a game-high 30 points on 11-of-26 shooting, including 6-of-8 from the free throw line. Both teams had problems hanging onto the ball as the two teams combined to commit 59 turnovers in the game -- 33 by Northridge and 26 by the Women of Troy.
USC's next game is on Sunday, Dec. 20, at Western Kentucky. Game time is at 12 p.m. PST.
