The last few weeks have not been kind to USC, who saw JuJu Watkins go down with a torn ACL in the second round of the NCAA Tournament before being eliminated from the Big Dance in the Elite Eight by UConn for the second year in a row.
In the latest bit of bad news, freshman guard Avery Howell announced that she has entered the transfer portal.
“I want to start by expressing my deepest gratitude to the University of Southern California, my coaches, teammates, and the entire Trojan family for their unwavering support and the incredible experiences I’ve had during my time here,” Howell wrote. “USC has shaped me not only as an athlete but also as a person, and I will forever cherish the relationships and memories I’ve made. After much reflection, I have decided to enter the transfer portal in search of the best fit for my future. This was not an easy decision, but I believe it is the right step for my journey.”
