    Mar 12 2025
    The USC Triple-Double Podcast -- the Peristyle Podcast's basketball-focused podcast -- returns with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) breaking down the Women of Troy's Big Ten Tournament run, including the disappointing final 20 minutes of the championship game when the Trojans couldn't buy a bucket, blowing a 13-point lead in a 72-67 loss to rival UCLA while the Trojan men were also beat by the Bruins but in a much more embarrassing fashion. USC freshman guard Avery Howell then joins the show. She talks about the Trojans' difficult loss in the Big Ten Tournament championship and how she thinks the team will use the loss as they move forward toward the NCAA tournament. She chats about how she has tried to fit with the Women of Troy this season despite joining the group late in the summer after being an alternate with Team Canada. Howell also discusses her three-point shooting and the work she has put in, beginning while she was still in high school to turn that aspect from a weakness into a strength. Shotgun and Connor then look at where both Trojan teams stand, including what the latest bracketology says about the Women of Troy's chances to be a No. 1 seed. The podcasting duo also glance forward at the upcoming potential matchups for the USC men in their Big Ten Tournament appearance, which gets underway Wednesday night against Rutgers at around 5:30 p.m. PDT on Peacock.

    The USC Triple-Double Podcast -- the Peristyle Podcast's basketball-focused podcast -- returns with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) breaking down how the USC women clinched the Big Ten regular-season championship with a thumping of No. 2 UCLA at Pauley Pavilion while the Trojan men snapped a five-game losing streak. It was a huge week for the women with JuJu Watkins earning Big Ten Player of the Year honors and Lindsay Gottlieb winning the conference's Coach of the Year award. Kiki Iriafen and Watkins were unanimous first-team All-Big Ten picks, Rayah Marshall and Watkins made the conference's All-Defense team and Kennedy Smith made the Big Ten's All-Freshmen team. On the men's side, Desmond Claude returned to form scoring 25 points and dishing out a career-high 11 assists in a 92-61 win over Washington Wednesday night after being held to just one point in the Trojans' road loss at Oregon. Chibuzo Agbo added 26 points in the win over the Huskies while Rashaun Agee played his best week of basketball in his career. Agee recorded new career highs in points, blocks and steals against the Ducks before an efficient 18-point performance in Wednesday's win. After recapping the game action, Shotgun and Connor then look at where both Trojan teams stand and glance forward at the upcoming matchups for both squads. They preview the Women of Troy's path in the Big Ten Tournament, and they also discuss the men's Crosstown Showdown road matchup with UCLA and what it will take for the Trojans to make the Big Ten Tournament.

USC head coach Andy Stankiewicz then joins the show to talk about the Trojans getting off to a much better start to the 2025 season at 9-2 so far than last year when they were 4-12 through the first four weeks. He discusses what a win over Vanderbiilt means and why he didn't try to check his team showing emotion after the victory over the Commodores. Stankiewicz also provides an injury update on sophomore outfielder Kevin Takeuchi and breaks down how the coaching staff decided to put Ethan Hedges on the mound as a two-way player this season.
