February 17, 2024 | Baseball
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – The USC baseball team fell to Grand Canyon on Saturday night, dropping an 8-1 decision in its second game of the season.

USC falls to 0-2 after a loss to BYU on Friday night as well. Grand Canyon moves to 2-0.

GCU put up three runs in the first, one of which was unearned, but USC starter Tyler Stromsborg settled in after that and tossed three scoreless before exiting the contest.
Â
Jacob Galloway got the Trojans on the board in the fifth inning with a mammoth solo-shot to make it a 3-1 game. Grand Canyon's Beau Ankeney answered with a solo-homer in the top of the sixth to again make it a three-run game. The 'Lopes would add a run in the eighth and three in the ninth.
