Thursday, April 4-4:30 p.m. PT TV: Pac-12 Networks (Jason Knapp and Sheehan Burch) Opponent Web: LOS ANGELES The USC women s lacrosse team (5-7, 2-1 MPSF) looks to snap a two-game skid as the Women of Troy turn their attention to Mountain Pacific Sports Federation opponents. The Trojans return home from a tough East Coast trip that yielded a pair of losses and will have a tall order in front of them as a hot Denver team comes to McAlister Field for an Easter Sunday afternoon contest. USC will be playing its ninth and final game in the month of March when it takes the field against the Pioneers (9-1, 1-0) on March 31. The Trojans schedule spreads out through the month of April, but each game is even more important as the team makes a push to get into the MPSF s postseason conference tournament. Though the Trojans have won just one of their last four games, the road has not been easy. USC drew a strong Stanford team on the road, and got caught off guard by a surging Temple squad at home. Facing inclement weather conditions on their most recent East Coast swing, the Trojans were held to eight goals in a game of runs against Bryant before they were barely edged in a 9-8 overtime thriller at Brown; the program s first-ever overtime contest. If USC is to return to its winning ways, it will need big a contribution from the nation s second-leading point scorer, freshman attack Caroline de Lyra. De Lyra has racked up 70 points (5.83 ppg), this year, with a team-high 40 goals and 30 assists. Freshman midfield Amanda Johansen has been one of the Trojans most consistent players. She leads the MPSF in draw controls (seventh in the nation) with 5.50 dcpg. Johansen is also second on the team in goals (29) and points (37). In the cage, the Trojans have relied on freshman goalie Liz Shaeffer who ranks third in the MPSF with 8.58 spg. Shaeffer has recorded 103 saves, this season (11.92 gaa). In front of her, Shaeffer looks to freshman defense Courtney Tarleton who leads the team with 30 ground balls and 21 caused turnovers. WEEKEND RECAP: USC dropped a pair of road games on the East Coast, last week. A Tuesday evening game at Bryant left the Trojans bloodied as the Bulldogs created a 10-3 halftime lead thanks to two separate 5-0 runs. USC s three straight goals in between those two runs and 4-0 run in the second half weren t enough as Bryant answered with a 4-0 run to end the game and seal a 15-8 win in the frigid Rhode Island weather. Caroline de Lyra had four goals and a pair of dimes, while Paige Bonomi added two goals, but the Trojans were out-shot, and fell by a 16-8 margin in the ground ball game. A balanced attack by the Bulldogs saw six different players score at least two goals, each. Three days later, USC faced a strong Brown team in Providence, and rushed out to a 3-0 lead and a 6-3 halftime advantage. The Bears outscored the Trojans, 5-1, in the second half to take an 8-7 lead, but Amanda Johansen put a goal in the back of the Brown cage with just 45 seconds left to send USC to its first-ever overtime game. It took nearly the entire six minutes before a goal was scored, but the game ended in Brown s favor, 9-8.

Johansen had three goals and an assist for four points and picked up a pair of ground balls. Most notably, Johansen was unstoppable in the center circle as she claimed nine draw controls. Both awards were the first-ever in USC program history.

STRONG START: The Trojans opened the program s first season against a tall order as they faced a pair of perennially ranked teams including top-ranked two-time defending NCAA champion Northwestern. NU went 21-2 in 2012 as it captured its seventh national crown in eight years. USC had just one night s rest before it hosted a 14th-ranked Massachusetts squad that was 19-2 overall in The Trojans fell, 18-5, against the Wildcats, and fought hard but were turned away, 18-9, by the Minutewomen.

She is currently majoring in sociology and is also an avid fan of television crime dramas. TONGUE TWISTER PARTY: Junior midfield Ceilidh Meagher s name might strike fear (or confusion) into most people s hearts when it comes to pronouncing it. It s really not as difficult as it looks, though. Ceilidh is Gaelic for party and is pronounced kay-lee. Her last name is one syllable, pronounced marr. LEGGY MY EGGY: Freshman midfield Alexandra Plastaras acquired a unique nickname when she was a baby. Born to a father with Greek roots, and a Korean mother, she was affectionately called Eggy by her mother. Eggy (sometimes spelled eggi ) means baby in Korean.

The conference s top four regular-season finishers will converge upon Eugene, Ore., where Pape Field plays host to the 2013 MPSF Tournament hosted by the University of Oregon, May 3-5. Last year, the Ducks finished with a 7-0 mark and upended seven-time defending conference champ Stanford in the title match to earn the league s automatic berth into the NCAA championships. FIELD OF DREAMS: To accommodate the national growth of the sport, the NCAA expanded the lacrosse tournament field from 16 teams to 26 teams in time for the 2013 championship. Now, all 13 conference champions will receive automatic bids while 13 more teams will earn at-large selections. The top eight teams will be seeded in the bracket and will host first- and second-round games. The top six seeded teams receive byes into the second round and serve as hosts for a neutral-site first-round game. The first-round winners then play at the top six seeded teams.
