USC Afternoon Notes

  • USC long snapper Jake Olson is among the graduating seniors who were selected to the Skull and Dagger Society. Other athletes include All-American swimmer Carsten Vissering and water polo player Amanda Longan, who was national player of the year last season.

USC senior associate athletic director Ron Orr received the volunteer service award.
