UCLA Loses A Point; USC Gets One:
Rashad Jones Signs With Trojans--(May 12, 1999)

USC has announced that it has signed point guard Rashad Jones (6'-2" So. PG) from San Jose City College. "Rashad was overlooked by a lot of people and we are very pleased to add him to our team," Coach Henry Bibby said in an official announcment. "He's a kid who will solidify our backcourt and give us another point guard. He comes from a good, fundamentally sound program and can run the team well on the floor" 

Jones earned All-Coast Conference first team honors as a sophomore in 1998-99 after averaging 15.7 points, 6.0 assists and 3.1 steals per game in leading the Jaguars to a 19-10 mark. He made 50.4 percent of his field goal attempts (120-of-238) and shot 80.1 percent from the foul line (125-of-156). He also made 10-of-19 three-point attempts.  A team captain this past season, Jones made three All-Tournament teams, including being selected the Chabot Tournament Most Valuable Player.   Jones, who went to Bellarmine College Prep in San Jose, will enter USC as a junior.
