The summer is inching closer to its finish.

With a rapid-fire 6:30 a.m. conditioning-based workout this morning, the Trojans completed their penultimate week of the summer program, leaving just five workouts next week between now and the start of Fall Camp 2009 on Aug. 7.

Check out several images from the early morning session on Cromwell Field:
