UCLA’s twin towers, Travis and David Wear, combined for 32 points and 15 rebounds and the Bruins held the anemic-offense of Southern California to just 35 percent shooting on the way to a 66-47 win in a Pac-12 Conference contest at the Galen Center Sunday night.
It was the third straight win for the Bruins (10-7, 3-2 Pac-12). USC (5-13, 0-5 Pac-12) lost its sixth straight game and its ninth in its last 10 outings.
Travis Wear led all scorers with 19 points and David Wear had 13. Lazeric Jones added 15 points and had 11 at the half.
The Bruins used an early 15-1 run to take control and led 37-19 at the half. They took a 43-20 lead on a jumper by David Wear early in the second half and the Trojans never got closer than 16 points the rest of the way.
USC was led by Maurice Jones with 13 points and failed to score 50 points for the eighth time this season.
