The USC Trojans tipped off their 2025–26 college basketball season in dominant fashion, overpowering the Manhattan Jaspers 114–83 on Saturday night at the Galen Center in Los Angeles. The Trojans delivered a complete team performance — marked by sharp shooting, relentless rebounding, and balanced scoring across the board.
🔥 Baker-Mazara Leads the Charge
Senior guard Chad Baker-Mazara was electric, posting a career-high 26 points, including 20 in the first half. He shot efficiently from all areas, going 3-for-4 from beyond the arc and a perfect 9-for-9 from the free-throw line, setting the tone for USC’s offensive explosion.
Team Depth and Dominance
USC showcased impressive depth, with seven players scoring in double figures. The Trojans took control midway through the first half after trailing 23-22, igniting a 33-14 run to seize a commanding 55-37 halftime lead.
They also dominated the boards 55–32, controlling second-chance points and out-hustling the Jaspers in every area of the game.
A Statement Victory for the Trojans
This emphatic win serves as an early warning to Pac-12 opponents — the Trojans mean business this season. With chemistry building and multiple scoring threats emerging, USC’s offense looks poised to become one of the most dangerous in college basketball.
Next up, the Trojans will aim to build on this momentum as they prepare for their upcoming non-conference stretch. If tonight’s performance is any indication, USC fans have plenty to be excited about.
