4 Trojans took home the dub thanks to a dominate 38-point performance by Juju Watkins.

The Watts-native has been leading a renaissance in womens college basketball ever since her SLAM 248 cover dropped last year, but she isnt competing for a national title alone: both senior guard McKenzie Forbes and junior Rayah Marshall are second and third in scoring, respectively.

1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

2 ranked Bruins, who until that matchup against USC not too long ago had been undefeated.

Led by a double-double machine of Lauren Betts and a smooth, shifty guard in Kiki Rice, UCLA has been destroying opponents by upwards of 30-plus points.

To defeat USC, theyll need to remain poised and execute, especially in the paint and from the three-point lineback in February, their shooting woes gave them trouble against the Trojans.
