Baseball
After losing the first two games of the weekend series to Arizona State, Southern California finally broke through on Sunday, defeating the Devils 8-2. The Trojans have had a rough go of things to start the season and stand 11-12 on the season and 1-4 in Pac-10 play. The win against Arizona State handed the Devils their first Pac-10 loss of the season while USC garnered their first Pac-10 win of the season. Slick-hitting freshman, Ricky Oropesa gathered three hits in the game including his fourth homerun of the season. Anthony Vasquez also homered and knocked in three RBI to help lead the Trojans to victory.

Track & Field
The USC Trojans had a nice showing at the recent Cal-Nevada Championships held in Los Angeles, California, over the weekend. Brysun Stately, a redshirt junior, pole vaulted to a USC school record 13-9 ¼ (4.20m) and took second place in the women’s pole vault competition. Stately’s jump actually broke the school record that she had previously held by about inch and a half. Eva Orban was another notable Trojan at the Cal-Nevada Championships. Orban has been one of the top woman’s hammer throwers in the nation and won first place with a season-best throw of 222-10 (67.93m).
At the Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, California, Zsofia Erdelyi set a school-record with her win in the 10,000m race.
