STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Freshman JuJu Watkins scored a Southern California-record 51 points — the most in NCAA women's basketball this season — and the 15th-ranked Trojans upset No.
Watkins hit six 3-pointers to help the Trojans (15-4, 5-4) send the Cardinal (19-3, 8-2) to their first home loss of the season.
Watkins came in averaging 25.8 points and Hall of Fame Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer turned to freshman Courtney Ogden to try stopping her.
Stanford star Cameron Brink had 19 points, 15 rebounds and eight blocked shots — swatting six shots in the first half.
McKenzie Forbes added X points for USC, which had lost three of four since beating UCLA on Jan. 14.
