AD Jennifer Cohen recaps the 2024-2025 USC Athletics season in State of Troy
The 2024 USC Athletics season season has officially come to an end. It was another successful year for the Trojans, highlighted by bringing two more national championships home to Heritage Hall.
Last week, USC athletic director Jennifer Cohen shared her latest State of Troy update. Included in it was a recap of the Trojans' 2024-2025 athletics season.
'USC is synonymous with broad-based excellence across all sports,' Cohen wrote. 'And our accomplishments in 2024-25 rank with any in school history. '
'Heading into this week's NCAA Division I Outdoor National Track & Field Championships, we are poised to secure USC's highest-ever finish in the Learfield Directors Cup. After USC ranked fifth following the winter rankings, baseball's remarkable run to the NCAA Tournament and the final of the Corvallis Regional – plus postseason runs from men's and women's tennis, men's and women's golf, and a national runner-up finish for women's water polo – highlights how spectacularly our coaches and teams have performed across this spring.
'That success also helped us win the Crosstown Cup for the 14th time. It's always a thrill to Beat the Bruins, and points from women's volleyball, women's soccer, football, women's rowing, women's golf, women's basketball, men's volleyball, beach volleyball, men's tennis, women's tennis, and women's water polo bring the Cup back where it belongs.
'Our success this year also extended into the classroom. During the Spring 2025 semester, our student-athletes earned a 3.240 cumulative GPA, with 61 student-athletes earning a 4.0 and 440 student-athletes earning a 3.0 or better – all department records.
'I'm so incredibly proud of our student-athletes, faculty, coaches, and staff for all they have accomplished this year, and we couldn't do it without our donors, fans, and the entire Trojan Family.'
With the 2024-2025 season in the books, attention now shifts to 2025-2026. The USC football team will kick off fall camp in early August, marking the start of what should be another exciting year in Troy.
