Clark was among three Trojans who scored in double figures. Tashara Carter and Kiyoko Miller each scored 12 and Miller contributed five assists.

USC (6-4) led by only two at halftime, 29-27, but went up by 10 with 16:38 remaining in the game.

The Sun Devils (4-6) were led by Rachel Holt, who had 17 points.

USC outrebounded the Sun Devils, 39-29.

“The team has really struggled rebounding,” USC Coach Chris Gobrecht said. “So to come out in the second half and dominate on the boards is huge.”
