Tennessee Tech at Southern California
LOS ANGELES (Interstat) — The undefeated Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles will put their perfect record on the line when they visit the Southern California Women of Troy in a non-conference women’s basketball matchup Tuesday at Galen Center.
Tennessee Tech (4-0) is off to its best start in recent years, coming off a 61-52 home victory over East Tennessee State on Thursday. The Golden Eagles have relied on a balanced scoring attack, with Cam Mathews, Amaya Thomas and Reagan Hurst all contributing in their latest win.
Southern California (3-2) looks to rebound from a narrow 61-59 road loss to Notre Dame last Friday. Despite the defeat, the Women of Troy saw strong performances from Kara Dunn, who scored 21 points, and Jazzy Davidson, who added 14 points, three assists and three blocks. USC’s schedule has been formidable, including a win over then-North Carolina State and a loss to top-ranked South Carolina.
The game pits Tennessee Tech’s early-season momentum against a USC team battle-tested by a challenging slate. The Golden Eagles will be the first unblemished opponent the Women of Troy have faced this season.
Tipoff is set for Tuesday night. USC remains in Los Angeles to host Pepperdine on Friday, while Tennessee Tech returns home to face Lipscomb on Dec. 1.
