Harrison Hornery makes noise for Trojans in win over Cal

USC must get consistent bench contributions if it wants to make a run this season.

The USC Trojans men’s basketball team has had a very disappointing season, especially after bringing in Isaiah Collier, Bronny James, and D.J. Rodman in the offseason.

However, the Trojans were able to get back in the win column with an 82-74 victory over Cal at the Galen Center on Wednesday night. Boogie Ellis led the team with 15 points and Kobe Johnson had 14. Bronny James scored 10, as he reached double digits for the second straight game.

One other notable player was Harrison Hornery, who provided a big spark for Andy Enfield’s team off the bench.

Hornery had 8 points with 4 rebounds and 3 assists in 19 minutes off the bench. That stat line is exactly what Enfield and the Trojans are looking for from their reserves.

This was the most points Hornery has scored since November 14 against UC Irvine. For a team that has not lived up to expectations, Enfield continues to shift the lineup around to find a spark.

The Trojans next face Stanford on Saturday.
