USC’s men’s basketball team will get a chance to flex its new defensive muscles tonight when the Trojans (3-3) play Wyoming in Laramie.

The Cowboys (2-2) are led by high-scoring center Eric Leckner. Leckner, a 6-11 sophomore, is averaging 16 points and 6 rebounds. Guard Les Bolden is shooting 50% from the field and is averaging 15 points for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys lost a close game Saturday night to the University of Colorado, 74-71, in Boulder.
