The 2021 USC Trojans baseball team represented the University of Southern California during the 2021 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Trojans played their home games for the 47th season at Dedeaux Field. The team was coached by Jason Gill in his 2nd season at USC.

Previous season

[edit]

The Trojans began the 2020 season 10-5, good for a tie for third-place in the Pac-12 prior to the NCAA's decision to cancel the season on March 12 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the season's cancellation, all Division I college baseball players were granted an extra year of eligibility.[2]
