The USC men’s basketball team is going dancing for the third straight year.
The Trojans were named the No. 10 seeds in the East bracket of the NCAA Tournament and will face No. 7 seed Michigan State in Columbus on Friday.
USC (22-10, 14-6 in Pac-12) finished third in conference play and hoped to parlay that into a favorable location like Sacramento or Denver for fans to travel to the tournament. But an uninspired loss to Arizona State in the first round of the Pac-12 Tournament quarterfinals spoiled any hope of the Trojans staying close to home.

More to come.
