There are still many questions about the path for USC. It is not the least if Watercins are located throughout the next season after tearing the front cruciate ligament on its right knee. But hidden under the sorrow of a clip in the short championship is the hope in the future with Smith and its new colleagues who hold the castle until it is in good health to return.
“The new students were, their performance … incredible,” said von Oilhoven on Monday night. “A preview of what will come in the next few years.”
Certainly, the trio of the guards, Smith, Affiri Haul and Kylie Heikal have given all the reasons for this march to believe that they are committed to larger roles next season. Hawal has already appeared as an audio leader while leading Trojan horses in the shooting of three points (40 %). He served a structure as sparks from the bench. Smith set up herself as an elite defender who could be recorded in bouquets if the game was called for.
Stan Delos, Smith Secondary Coach, knows that she is able to more. He saw it in Etiwanda High and expected to see it again next season at USC.
“She can register in several ways more than they appear at the University of Southern California at the present time,” Delos told the Times last month.

How much Smith and her colleagues will be asked beginners to bear that the recording load depends on what is happening in the coming weeks. With Watercins exit in the foreseeable future, the Trojan horses are expected to be active in the transport portal.

One dynamic player has already been appointed to join Trojan horses. Jazzy Davidson, the possibility of secondary schools No. 3 in the 2025 graduation category, will give the Trojan horses other option of another young man on the wing. What is the size of the role you will play immediately, it must be seen. But as it has been proven in the last two seasons, Gottlieb does not have a problem in the position of new students in critical locations.
“The beginners who enter a program like us … not, as you know, are learning to fly, and we will give you a year or two to learn how to win,” Gutliplab said. “They had to know how to fit with a winning team immediately.”
This convenience was not in doubt for novice effort at the University of Southern California in March. The question is now, as with Trojan horses advanced without Watckens, is the place where the University of Southern California may be next March, where it is assumed that Smith, Hoel and Haykal are leading the road.
“They are winners,” Gottlieb said on Monday night, “I think this is what they have shown at this stage. I know that they will continue to improve, and this is unbelievable.”
