In Los Angeles, Oregon showcased an improved performance during their recent match, but it was No. 15 USC who seized the advantage, capitalizing on a penalty kick and a couple of defensive errors made by the Ducks, ultimately securing a 3-0 victory on Thursday at McAlister Field.
The Trojans, with a record of 8-2 overall and 4-0 in their conference, obtained their initial goal through a penalty kick in the 24th minute. Simone Jackson went on to score twice later in the game, on both occasions taking advantage of Oregon’s struggles to clear the ball from their defensive end.
