USC Women's Basketball: JuJu Watkins Continues to Rack Up Pac-12 Honor

Watkins is on another level.

USC's superstar freshman guard JuJu Watkins is on another level. 

Watkins continues to rack up awards, and entering the college basketball's 16th week, another one is on her way. 

The freshman guard, once again, has collected her third Pac-12 weekly award year, named Pac-12 Player of the Week for the third time and Pac-12 Freshman of the Week for the 13th time of the season. 

Watkins helped propel the Trojans to victories over Arizona, Oregon, and number 11 ranked Oregon State last week. She was the top scorer in each of the contests. In large part of her efforts, the Trojans climbed up to number seven in the latest AP Polls. 

In these victories, she combined for 83 points, 26 rebounds, eight assists, five steals and seven blocks. Watkins has proven that she's already on another level, but the consistency of her play is off the charts. 

The Women of Troy are back home this week and will look for more of the same from Watkins. 

Watkins has made her presence known all season, and her awards and accolades are 100% earned. She also continues to get better week after week, so we could be seeing one of the most dominant freshman years in the history of college sports.
