If someone wants to key it in, I will be at the LMU game today and can call the updates in. Send me an email with a phone number and we can make it happen.

I'll be posting scores for this match-up. It should be a tight game. LMU defeated USC last year in OT, but both teams look to have showed improvement this year. LMU is hot with 4 straight wins, including its latest victory over ranked Chapman. The Lions have an opportunity at playoffs if they win out - vs. USC and UCLA. USC needs help in the form of two divisional losses by UCSB (to USC and UCLA), but if they win outright they also have a shot. Given the heated rivalry between these two programs, I'm sure the Trojans also wouldn't mind playing spoiler... Should be a great game! First whistle goes at 1pm PST. ie. in less than 10 minutes. Check back for up-dated scores...

4-2. Unassisted tally by USC

Half-time over and done. USC scores as the ball trickles over the line. Tender Podesta had a piece but not enough - makes the game 4-3 LMU.

Goal by So. Brian Minkler re-stores LMU's two-goal lead. Now 5-3. Lions win ensuing face. LMU doing well on transition. USC reportedly taking the air out of the ball and trying to slow the game down, run sets.

6-3 LMU. Caulkins on man-up

by **Kojima** on Sun Apr 09, 2006 4:14 pm

8-3 LMU. Justin H for the Lions. before USC tallies back. #3 from 17. Make's it 8-4 LMU after three quarters of play. Should be a great finish. Winner remains alive in the LA - WCLL playoff race.

LMU Goal. Executing again on man-up. Ury from Minkler. Make's it 9-4 Lions.

LMU scores again to make it 11-4. This time Fr. DeLaTorre. LMU empties bench - but the Trojans aren't done. USC's leading scorer Kai Sato tallies than assists on a goal by 16. Closes the LMU lead to 11-6.
