Maurice Jones hit the go-ahead free throw with 1:57 remaining and Aaron Fuller had a key steal late to help Southern California beat Morgan State 65-62 on Tuesday night.
Fuller scored a season-high 19 points and Jones added 18 points as the Trojans (2-3) snapped a three-game losing streak.
With the game tied, Jones split a pair of free throws for a 63-62 USC lead. Jones later hit a short runner with 35 seconds left for the three-point cushion.
Coming out of a timeout, Morgan State (0-4) was struggling to get into its offense when Larry Bastfield threw an errant pass into traffic that was intercepted by Fuller.
