Bruins hand Trojans their seventh loss in a row Atonye Nyingifa scored 22 points to lead No. 17 UCLA to a 68-54 victory over USC on Tuesday night at the Galen Center. The teams will meet in a rematch Sunday at Pauley Pavilion. Nyingifa, who made 11 of 14 shots, had help from Thea Lemberger (12 points), Jasmine Dixon (10 points) and Markel Walker (11 rebounds, eight assists) as the Bruins (20-6, 11-4 Pac-12) built a lead as large as 26 points and ended a two-game losing streak. Those two losses came last weekend against No. 4 Stanford. USC (8-18, 5-10) lost its seventh in a row, and its 18 losses are the second-most in school history, surpassed only by 20 losses in 1998-99. USC's Cassie Harberts, who began the night third in the Pac-12 averaging 17.8 points a game, led the Trojans with 17 points and nine rebounds. Ariya Crook added 10 points for the Trojans, but she made only four of 19 shots as USC shot 28% for the game and was outrebounded, 49-40. The game was close early, but the Bruins went on a 10-0 run to take a 20-9 lead with 9:15 left in the first half. The Trojans trailed at the half, 34-19, but Christina Marinacci, the Trojans' only senior, got a quick steal and Crook made a short jumper to make it 34-21 and get the USC crowd fired up. But the Bruins quickly doused USC's spark with some pinpoint outside shooting. Lemberger made consecutive three-pointers to give UCLA a 40-21 lead. Moments later, Walker was good on another three-pointer and the Bruins were up 43-23.
