USC Athletics announced a return to ESPN Radio on 710AM for its football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball games this upcoming season.

ESPN LA Trojans Radio Network on 710AM previously served as the home of Trojan Athletics from 2006 through 2019. In May of 2019, then-athletic director Lynn Swann signed a 5-year agreement with AM 790 KABC. But the Trojans are now back with ESPN Radio.

“We’re excited to collaborate with ESPN LA 710 AM to advance the USC Athletics brand and connect with fans across the Greater Los Angeles media market,” said Director of Athletics Jen Cohen in a statement. “As we move into a new era of Trojan Athletics, identifying partners who can help us provide our student-athletes with the platform to make their mark on collegiate athletics and reach new generations of supporters is critical. From the addition of play-by-play coverage for our women’s basketball program and Spanish-language coverage for football, to the reach and brand equity established by ESPN Radio in Los Angeles, we’re confident this partnership will help us achieve our goals.”

Trojan games will also be available in the USC Trojans Game Day app, USCTrojans.com/Listen, and the ESPN LA app.

According to a school press release, programming on the station this fall will include:

Trojans Live: A weekly show on all things Trojan Athletics, Trojans Live is currently set to air on ESPN LA 710 AM from 6-7 pm all fall, beginning Monday, August 26 through Monday, December 9.
