ANAHEIM, CA—It wasn’t pretty but they got it done.

After a slow start to the first two periods, the Ducks were able to add a pair of goals and hold the Trojans scoreless in the third period to win their sixth straight Pac-8 game over USC, 5-3 at Anaheim Ice on Thursday night.

Sam Jossie scored a crucial insurance goal late in the third period, AJ Bernhardt had a pair of goals, as did Trevor McCarty and Stephen Casey.

The Ducks are back on the ice at Anaheim Ice tonight at 8:30pm, before traveling north to Valencia to play College of the Canyons Saturday at 1:15.
