LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) Chad Baker-Mazara scored 23 points, Jaden Brownell added 16 points, and USC Trojans claimed the Maui Invitational championship with an 88-75 victory over Arizona State Sun Devils on Wednesday.

Baker-Mazara won the tournament championship for the second straight year after scoring 14 points in Auburn's 90-76 victory over Memphis last season. Baker-Mazara finished 9 of 16 from the field against Arizona State with four 3-pointers.

USC took the first double-digit lead of the game at 77-66 with 5:14 remaining on a basket by Ezra Ausar. The Trojans drew an offensive foul under the ASU basket and Jordan Marsh sank a jumper from the free-throw line to make it 81-69.

Marsh sealed it with a long 3-pointer for an 86-71 lead.

Ausar, coming off a 25-point performance in the semifinals, finished with 14 points for USC (7-0), which was without leading scorer Rodney Rice. Jacob Cofie had 11 points, eight rebounds and three blocks, and Marsh added nine points.

Maurice Odum scored 17 points and Anthony Johnson added 15 for Arizona State (6-2). Santiago Trouet and Massamba Diop each scored 13. The Sun Devils trailed by double-digits in all three tournament games.
