The USC Triple-Double Podcast is back with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) returning to break down the Women of Troy's first week of action in the NCAA tournament, including their first NCAA tournament win since 2006 and advancing to their first Sweet 16 in 30 years.
The Trojans defeated Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, 87-55, jumping out to a 21-2 run and never looking back, and then they tussled with Kansas before coming away with a 73-55 victory that sends them to Portland, Ore. for a Sweet 16 matchup against Baylor and a potential Elite Eight game against UConn.
Shotgun and Connor break down all the action played in an electric environment at the Galen Center where the fans brought the noise and lingered outside the arena even after the games to celebrate with the players. They look at the elite efforts of JuJu Watkins and McKenzie Forbes as well as role players, such as Kayla Williams and Clarice Akunwafo, stepping up and being difference makers that changed the tide of games.
The podcasting duo also delve into the news of men's basketball head coach Andy Enfield being expected to be hired by Southern Methodist to take over as its new head coach as it transitions into the ACC next season. Shotgun and Connor also give their No. 1 choice for an Enfield replacement if the SMU hire becomes official.
After a short break, Shotgun and Connor preview the upcoming Sweet 16 matchup against Baylor and potential Elite Eight matchups against Connecticut and Duke for the Women of Troy this weekend at the Moda Center in Portland.
