No. 2 USC Women’s Water Polo Locks Up Two More Wins At Lancer Joust
January 28, 2023 | Women's Water Polo
Trojans top No. 8 Long Beach State 17-7 and CBU 16-6 in Riverside.
RIVERSIDE, CALIF. — The No. 2 USC women's water polo team gained two more balanced wins today, wrapping action at the Lancer Joust with a 17-7 victory over No. 8 Long Beach State and a 16-6 win over host California Baptist to improve to 4-0 on the year. It was another day of widespread scoring and effective defense by the Trojans, who played all four goalies across the two wins, with senior Carolyne Stern making her mark with a career-high 16 saves in the win over the Beach.
That morning matchup against Long Beach State saw a slow start before the Trojans broke things open, turning a 2-1 margin into a 10-goal victory as USC's offense clicked off goal after goal while the defense kept the Beach at bay. Stern was the wall in the cage for the duration, and nine different Trojans scored at the opposite end. Paige Hauschild and Tilly Kearns combined for seven of USC's 17 in that one, and freshman Morgan Netherton notched her first goal as a Trojan in the victory.
The afternoon game featured several more firsts for the USC roster. Freshman goalie Jada Ward capped up for her first time in the cage, making two saves in her two periods of work against California Baptist. USC got 10 Trojans on the scoresheet in the 16-6 win, with redshirt freshman Sally McCarthy sailing in her first goal as a Trojan to tally USC's final goal at the Lancer Joust.
NEXT:
USC continues its early stages of 2023 with a trip to the Triton Invitational next weekend, Feb. 3-5, in La Jolla, where the Trojans are bracketed with Concordia, Indiana and UC Santa Barbara to open the 14-team tournament.
NOTABLE:
- SR Carolyne Stern tied her career high with 16 saves in the win vs. Long Beach State
- Two players scored their first goals as Trojans today: FR Morgan Netherton vs. LBSU and RS FR Sally McCarthy vs. CBU.
- SO Isabel Zimmerman matched her career-high with three goals vs. CBU.
- FR goalies Jada Ward made two saves in her first action as a Trojans, starting vs. CBU.
- SR Paige Hauschild's four goals vs. LBSU moved her up to rank No. 11 all-time in scoring at USC, now with 173 career goals.
