Oregon women’s basketball to face surging No. 9 USC Trojans led by JuJu Watkins
Oregon (9-6, 0-2 Pac-12) at No. 9 USC (11-1, 1-1 Pac-12)
Time/date: Noon Sunday
Site: Galen Center; Los Angeles, California
TV: Pac-12 Network. Radio: KUGN 98.1 FM.
About the matchup: The Ducks have been on the wrong end of two conference games so far, falling to Oregon State and UCLA by double-digits, and the road will get no easier at USC on Sunday. The Trojans have just one loss – to UCLA – and are ranked ninth in the latest AP Poll. If the Ducks want any hope of winning, they will have to rebound better than they did against the Bruins. Oregon was fourth in the Pac-12 in rebounding heading into conference play, and needs to assert its will inside to keep the game close.
About the Ducks: Oregon guard and second-leading scorer Chance Gray sat out a lopsided defeat to UCLA with a concussion, and with her status in question the Ducks will need to find more scoring threats on the outside if they have any hope of defeating the Trojans. Through two conference games the Ducks have yet to crack 50 points.
About the Trojans: Fresh off their first loss of the season to unbeaten UCLA, the Trojans responded with a come-from-behind victory over Oregon State at home Friday, 56-54. USC goes as freshman phenom JuJu Watkins goes. She averages almost 27 points per game and is the undisputed leader of USC early in her collegiate career.
Oregon coach Kelly Graves on JuJu Watkins: “Well, she’s really gifted. No question about it. Where she can get better is to make everybody around her better, but right now with the ball in her hand she’s amazing, as good as I’ve seen at this age since I’ve been in women’s basketball. I saw (Kelsey) Plum when she was a freshman and Sabrina (Ionescu) when she was a freshman … Caitlin Clark. JuJu is really, really good.”

MEDFORD, Ore. — Fire crews quickly knocked down a trailer fire Monday night that threatened a nearby home in the 3000 block of Table Rock Road, displacing one resident.
Firefighters responded around 9:20 p.m. Monday, May 4. Engine 14 arrived to find a trailer on fire and the flames threatening a nearby residence. Crews knocked the fire down within eight minutes of arrival.
No injuries to civilians or firefighters were reported. One resident was displaced as a result of the fire.
The cause is believed to be related to the use of an outdoor fire pit, where embers likely ignited nearby combustible materials. Officials said the fire spread from pallets and other items to the RV, causing extensive damage to the RV and minor damage to the exterior of the home.
With warmer, drier weather approaching, officials warned fire risk increases and urged people to follow outdoor fire safety tips. They recommend using a screen on outdoor fires when burning wood, choosing approved propane free-standing fire pits rather than wood-fueled options, keeping combustible materials at least 15 feet away, and discarding cigarettes, ash, embers and other smoldering materials in a non-combustible container filled with water.
Medford Police, Mercy Flights Inc. and Jackson County Fire District 3 assisted on the incident.
