Jojo Watskins, a USC star, had to be transferred to the ground by several Trojan crew members after suffering a low body injury in the second round of the NCAA Championship Monday evening in Los Angeles, California.
Due to the presence of No. 1 USC in Mississippi, the ninth seed of 13-2 in the first quarter, Watckens was racing to the other end of the ground at a quick break When two defenders gathered on it. After receiving some contact from the Mississippi state, Wagkins lost the ball and collapsed on the ground. Then she immediately grabbed her right knee and was painful while her teammates were surrounding her.
Then two members of USC Watercins were raised from her feet and carried her to the Treasury room.
