What a weekend . . . to forget!

They let Jayden Daniels, who didn’t even play at USC, go to the scrimmage Satruday but not fans. Arizona State fans went to the their scrimmage Saturday night. UCLA fans will get to go to a scrimmage.

• Now for all the people who think Jen Cohen is presiding over a great array of sports teams on the rise: UCLA won the women’s basketball championship. UCLA swept the baseball team in three games (I attended one of these games). Beach volleyball lost to UCLA, 3-2. Shall I continue? Lacrosse lost to Northwestern!

Not even Tim Tessalone could spin this into a positive weekend of results.

• The lone ray of light was the women’s water polo team, which beat UCLA, 13-11, and there was also men’s volleyball beating Stanford. Men’s tennis lost to No. 1-ranked Ohio State, 4-3. A moral victory.

Here’s my mini-tennis rant: Stanford freshman Jagger Leach is one of the top two players for the Cardinal. His grandfather was the great USC tennis coach, Dick Leach. His father (Jon) and uncle (Rick) were All-Americans at USC. And Jagger went to Stanford! C’mon! Who goofed, I’ve got to know?

• Now to baseball: USC’s vaunted pitching staff gave up 31 runs to UCLA. The Trojans’ aces (Mason Edwards, Grant Govel) gave up 8 runs in 9.2 innings.

The Trojans were competitive but just couldn’t keep the Bruins’ offense in check for an entire game. USC had a chance to win Saturday, losing 9-8, but it would have been an overachievement to win even one game.

Here is the bottom line: These losses don’t really matter if USC keeps winning the rest of the way so the Trojans can host a regional. But it did prove to the delusional that you cannot just expect good pitching to shut down good hitting at the college level. Also, it’s not easy to beat the nation’s No. 1-ranked team when your shortstop Sunday was making his first start and has not had a hit. Nothing personal about that but it just shows USC is a scrappy, overperforming team, not an All-Star team.
