USC will try to build on its best start in nearly half a century when the 23rd-ranked Trojans play host to Cornell on Monday night at the Galen Center in Los Angeles.USC (10-0) escaped with its unbeaten record intact after a dramatic 82-77 victory over Troy on Saturday night. The Trojans havent been undefeated at this point in a season since going 16-0 to begin the 1970-71 campaign.Cornell (2-6) hasnt enjoyed nearly as much success. The Big Red have lost three of its last four games and is coming off a 97-78 loss to Wyoming.Cornell is likely to encounter a very motivated USC squad after the Trojans survived a scare against Troy. USC trailed at the half for just the second time this season. The Trojans fell behind by 10, trailed by nine with 12:35 to play and were down by three with 1:18 remaining, but Jordan McLaughlin and Chimezie Metu made crucial plays in the final 1:03 to help them prevail.We have to come out every game and focus and lock in to that game, Metu said.McLaughlin presented a different perspective, saying the team could benefit from a comeback victory. The Trojans, who was still missing injured starter Bennie Boatwright, have had five comebacks of at least nine points in their 10 wins this season.It was huge to get a win like this, McLaughlin said. We know we can (rally). Its good for our young guys to get this out of the way. It was big. It helps us mature. Everyone was making big plays down the stretch.USC coach Andy Enfield praised McLaughlin and Metu for their efforts late in the game. McLaughlin finished with 21 points. Metu had 18 points and eight rebounds.Jordan was dominant tonight in the second half to help us win and so was Chimezie, Enfield said. Were going to do this by committee this year. Our starting lineup has to do a better job of defending and getting us out to a lead.Elijah Stewart is averaging a team-high 16.5 points and 5.7 rebounds for USC. McLaughlin averages 13.4 points and 4.8 assists. Metu, the teams leading rebounder, is averaging 12.9 points and eight rebounds.Matt Morgan is leading Cornell in scoring and rebounding, averaging 18.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game. Stone Gettings is averaging 12 points and 5.1 rebounds. Robert Hatter averages 10 points, 4.5 rebounds and a team-high 2.6 assists.Cornell is led by first-year coach Brian Earl, who was hired to replace Bill Courtney after the Big Red went 10-18 last season. Players have embraced the change in coaching styles even if it hasnt translated into success yet.Last year, it was more listening to the coaches and doing what they wanted rather than listening to each other, Morgan told The Cornell Daily Sun. We are the ones on the court and we might see things differently than they might see. (Earl has) done a good job of listening to us, and, at the same time, we listen to him just as much.

Brian Close - 18 years and 149 days, v New Zealand, 1949So iconic are the images of a grizzled Close taking West Indian bouncers on the chest and hurling himself around at short leg, it is almost impossible to imagine him as a fresh-faced 18-year-old, in his first season at Yorkshire, being drafted in to face New Zealand at Old Trafford. He only played six Tests over the next decade but was surprisingly handed the captaincy in 1966, before an even more dramatic recall to face Michael Holding and company in 1976, aged 45.Jack Crawford - 19 years and 32 days, v South Africa, 1906A prodigy who was picked for Surrey at 17, Crawford was Englands youngest Test debutant when he played on the 1905-06 tour of South Africa - a record he held for almost half a century. He did the double of 1000 runs and 100 wickets in a season two years running, in 1906 and 1907, but played the last of his 12 Tests on the subsequent Ashes tour, despite being Englands leading wicket-taker. After falling out with Surrey in 1909, he emigrated to Australia.Denis Compton - 19 years and 83 days, v New Zealand, 1937The Brylcreem Boy, one of Englands most dashing 20th-century sportsmen (he also played football for Arsenal), Compton made 65 on debut and then scored a century in his second Test, against Australia, the following year. His career was interrupted by the war but he went on to score moree than 5000 runs and average 50 in his 78 Tests; in 1953, he hit the winning runs at The Oval as England regained the Ashes after a 19-year gap.dddddddddddd Has a stand named after him at Lords.Ben Hollioake - 19 years and 269 days, v Australia, 1997 One of the games great lost talents, Hollioake burst on to the international stage as a teenager but only won a handful of caps before dying in a car accident at the age of 24. He thrilled Lords on ODI debut against Australia, stroking an audacious 63 off 48 balls, before being catapulted into the Test team - he was handed his cap alongside his older brother, Adam - later that summer, during another England Ashes defeat. He played one other Test, against Sri Lanka in 1998.Ian Peebles - 19 years and 338 days, v South Africa, 1927The man Hameed is set to bump down to sixth on the list of Englands youngest Test players, Peebles was a legspinner good enough to trouble Don Bradman during the 1930 Ashes. Born in Scotland, Peebles had played only four first-class matches when he was picked for the 1927-28 tour of South Africa - primarily as secretary to the captain, though he ended up playing in all four Tests. His legbreak lost its zip, however, and he made his last England appearance aged 23. ' ' '
