The 17th-ranked Trojans set season-high marks in assists (28) and assist-to-field goal ratio (28-to-30) in a 79-69 victory that was not as close as the final score suggests.
LOS ANGELES — USC guard Boogie Ellis pump-faked and drove in a few steps, drawing Washington defenders with him. He spotted Max Agbonkpolo with space on the perimeter and zipped the ball to him. When the Huskies closed on the open shooter, Agbonkpolo pushed the ball to Isaiah Mobley open on the baseline.
USC set a season-high in assists and assist-to-field goal ratio in the victory. The Trojans assisted on 25 of their first 26 baskets, the lone exception being a first-half put-back by Chevez Goodwin, who led USC with a season-high 24 points. A Washington zone forced USC into moving the ball around to find weak spots. Frequently, those occurred under the basket. Mobley twice found Goodwin under the basket late in the shot clock for layups.
Goodwin made six of his first seven attempts and scored half of USC’s first 28 points. He got going early on as Peterson ran with a long rebound and passed it up ahead to Goodwin with an open path to the basket for a dunk and USC’s first points.
