USC women's basketball struggles to score during Big Ten tournament loss to Washington

"The No. 9 seed Trojans let a second-round tournament contest against No. 8 seed Washington get out of hand in the third quarter, stumbling to a 76-64 loss at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. USC's conference run ended quickly after the Trojans delivered one of their worst offensive outings of the season."

"USC (17-13, 9-10) didn't make its first three-pointer until the 3:30 mark in the second quarter, just the Trojans' fifth made basket of the game overall. The Trojans trailed 32-20 at the half while shooting just 25%."

"Point guard and Big Ten freshman of the year Jazzy Davidson shot 2-for-13 after briefly leaving the game in the first quarter with a right shoulder injury and playing the rest of the contest with it wrapped under her jersey."
