Aching Anderson

Jerime Anderson said that he was hampered after tweaking his old groin injury late last week, but that it wasn't serious. However, the injury - which sidelined him early in preseason camp - has been nagging him lately, and it's starting to take its toll.

"It's really frustrating - there are a lot of good guards in the Pac-10 who I'd like to guard, like to take that challenge," Anderson said. "Right now, it is a little difficult. But I really don't have any excuses out there. When I step out on the floor, I'm there to play."
