USC Women's Basketball Falls to Penn State, NCAA Tournament Doubt Looms

USC Womens Basketball Falls to Penn State, Faces NCAA Tournament Doubt: Despite leading for 86% of the game, USC lost to Penn State, marking their second straight defeat. The Trojans, now 17-11, were outshot in the second half, with Penn State hitting 64% from the field. Sophomore guard Kiyomi McMiller scored a career-high 40 points, leading Penn State to a Quadrant three upset. USCs offense showed promise, but late-game shooting woes and defensive lapses cost them the game. The Trojans now face real doubt in their NCAA tournament resume and need at least one more win to solidify their spot.
