Did anyone go to the 2-hour fan appreciation today?

• Mason Edwards struck out 16 and allowed only 3 hits in 8.1 innings vs. Iowa last night, as USC snapped its four-game losing streak with a 9-2 victory.The teams played today at 2 p.m.

• Guard Rodney Rice will return to USC next season. This could be significant because he averaged 20 points in six games last season — provided he fully recovers from shoulder surgery.
• Former USC swimmer Nancy Garapick has passed away. She was a two-time broze medalist int he 1976 Olympics and world-record holder in the 200-meter backstroke. She was 64.
