/ Women's BasketballAfter Home Sweep of Cal and No. 2 Stanford, USC’s Destiny Littleton Named Pac-12 Women’s Basketball Player of the Week
January 16, 2023 | Women's Basketball
Trojan guard pinned up back-to-back 18-point outings as USC topped Cal and upset the No. 2 Cardinal at Galen Center.
USC grad student Destiny Littleton has grabbed her first honor as the Pac-12 Player of the Week after her instrumental role in leading the Trojans to a sweep of the Bay Area schools, topped off with a statement-making upset of No. 2 Stanford at Galen Center.
Littleton has now recorded double digits in three straight game as she now leads the team with 13 double-digit outings this season. She is the second Trojan to be named Pac-12 Player of the Week this season and 52nd all-time, following teammate Rayah Marshall's win on Jan. 2.
Littleton and the Women of Troy look to gather up more Pac-12 victories this week with action in Washington. USC visits Washington State at 7 p.m. on Friday (Jan. 20) in Pullman and then heads to Seattle to take on Washington at 12 p.m. on Sunday (Jan. 22).
A 5-9 guard, Littleton tallied a game-high 18 points in both wins and served up five assists against Cal and six against Stanford. In the Trojans' 55-46 win over the Cardinal, Littleton played the full 40 minutes to help anchor USC's first win over an opponent ranked No. 2 or better since 2008. USC's upset also snapped the Cardinal's 39-game win streak against Pac-12 opponents. Defensively, USC held Stanford to its lowest point total since 2016. It was USC's largest margin of victory over Stanford since a 12-point win in 1993.
