USC-UCLA Split Dual Track Meet

USC and UCLA have split the dual track meet. The Bruin men won, 87-76 while the Trojan women won, 93-69.

I said before the meet that the men’s portion was a toss up but it’s still a tough loss for USC coach Quincy Watts, who has lost the men’s meet to the Bruins two straight years to his former USC assistant, Joanna Hayes.

It also shows that USC will need to invest in events it refuses to like the pole vault and distances, otherwise it puts itself in a huge hole in the dual-meet format with its glut of sprinters.

  • USC men’s volleyball put up a good fight but fell to Hawaii last night, 3-1, before more than 9,900 in Honolulu.

  1. The USC/Hawaii volleyball contest is being called an instant classic —super close all the way…..

    ….and USC swept Rutgers in baseball.

    1. Thanks MG. Glad that we got the broom out for Rutgers. I hope that we can find a third quality starter and a closer for the playoffs. Fight on, Dan, Class of 1962

  2. Scott, good report. Our men should do better in the Big Ten and NCAA meets. We tend to do really well in the sprints, but not in distance running where other teams like UGLA, Oregon and Stanford tend to excel. Our women should start doing well in distance running because we can recruit women for cross country. We should have a men’s cross country team to so we can recruit 5000 meter runners like Max Truax who was an Olympic runner in the 5000. Fight on, Dan, Class of 1962
