During the match on Saturday, Moore was taken off the field in an ambulance and later hospitalized after suffering a hit from USC linebacker Desman Stephens II. After the incident, Bob Chesney, who recently joined UCLA's football program, offered his assistance to Lanning via text message while returning to Los Angeles.
