Reigning national champion USC was one of the top teams to appear at the PCD Tournament. Entering the tournament the Trojans were ranked 5th in the nation. USC was led by one of their seniors JASON MCNAUGHTON.
Q: Coming in as 5th in the nation do you feel like there is a target on your backs?
MCNAUGHTON: We were number one earlier in the season, but I still feel like we're a target the whole year. We should be ranked higher and hopefully after this week versus UCLA we will move up.
Q: Why did you choose USC?
MCNAUGHTON: I wanted to stay in SoCal and I liked the football team. All of the athletic programs are very good. I knew I would have a good balance socially, athletically, and academically there.
Q: What is your favorite moment as a Trojan?
MCNAUGHTON: Winning the national championship last year. It's the first time we've done it since I've been here.
Q: What do you think of the tournament and/or La Jolla?
MCNAUGHTON: La Jolla is nice and all but when you're on the court you have to stay focused. This tournament has a more relaxed atmosphere, it's more laid back than others.
Q: What equipment do you use?
MCNAUGHTON: A Babolat racket and PolyStar string.
