The USC and Brown University men’s basketball teams have agreed to cancel their Dec. 21 game following the shooting at Brown on Saturday that killed two students and injured nine others.
The two teams were scheduled for a non-conference matchup on Sunday at the Galen Center in Los Angeles. According to USC, the Trojans will schedule a different opponent for that night.
“The entire USC community sends its support to Brown University following the tragedy that has impacted its students, staff, alumni and the city of Providence,” USC said in a statement.
Brown also announced that the women’s basketball home game scheduled that day against Monmouth has been canceled.
On Monday, the Providence Police Department released photos and videos of a “person of interest” seeking help in identifying the person dressed in dark clothing while wearing a black mask and hat. Boston’s FBI field office also released new photos of a “person of interest,” who “is described as a male, approximately 5’8” with a stocky build.”
The FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for any information that leads to the identification, arrest and conviction of the university shooter.
Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, 18, from Uzbekistan, and Ella Cook, 19, from Alabama were the two students who were fatally shot.
