Matthew Kredell broke into the Daily News in 1998, working part time
at the paper while going to USC. The basketball team’s Elite Eight
run in 2000-01 was USC’s athletic highlight in his time at the
school, when the football team was stuck in the Paul Hackett-era.
After graduating in 2001, he started writing for the Daily News full
time. He’s in his second year covering USC, which coincides with the
rise of the program. He’ll take credit for the success, though Tim
Floyd may have more to do with it. A third-generation Los Angelean,
he grew up reading the Daily News while at El Camino Real High School
in Woodland Hills.

Lodrick Stewart spoke about meeting actor Denzel Washington in the locker room after the game. Stewart's father took a picture of him with Washington.
``He said he really liked my game, how I showed emotion, playing defense, going hard on both ends,'' Stewart said. ``I never thought I'd ever say I talked to Denzel Washington in person. You know, some stuff you never think would happen.''

Looks like the Galen Center is beginning to be a place to be seen.
Someone also mentioned somewhere that Washington has a son in HS that is a pretty decent BB player.
Do you know anything about that Matt?
MK edit: It's an athletic family to be sure. I did a story on Denzel's son John David Washington last April. JD played running back at Morehouse College and was signed as an undrafted free agent by the St. Louis Rams. Last I heard, he was on the Rams practice squad.
Then there's Malcolm Washington, whom I believe was at the game with Denzel. When I did the JD story, Malcolm was a varsity basketball player at Winward High in Culver City. Their sister Katia played volleyball at Harvard Westlake of Studio City before moving on to Yale.
