USC Women Play Host to Tennessee Tonight

USC’s women’s basketball team will play 11th-ranked Tennessee tonight at 5:45 at the Sports Arena.

The Volunteers (5-1) have four starters from last season’s 22-10 team but are led by a freshman, forward Bridgette Gordon, who is averaging 13 points a game. The team is coached by Pat Head Summitt, 1984 U.S. Olympic coach

The fourth-ranked Trojans (6-1) are coming off a loss on the road to top-ranked Texas. Cheryl Miller scored 31 points, and Cynthia Cooper had 23 points in an excellent all-around game for the senior guard.

Miller needs 11 points to become USC’s all-time scoring leader. The record, 2,405 points, is held by Paula McGee.
