On Wednesday, USC welcomed more than 100 kids with disabilities from several local nonprofits to the first-ever Trojan Games for a day of sports, education and fun with Trojan athletes from the football, women's soccer, women's volleyball, women's track and women's basketball teams. The pairs of buddies rotated through four stations, throwing the football with Cody Kessler and JuJu Smith, scoring goals with Dominique Randle, practicing yoga with Brianna Barrett and learning about nutrition with Courtney Jaco.

"It was awesome to get to spend time with those kids," Kessler said afterwards. "I spent most of my day with these twin boys, Chuma and Chooka, and had a great time playing football and soccer and just giving them a special day. I know they had fun and I can tell that my teammates did too. "
Here are all of the John McGillen photos of USC athletes and their new buddies...
