The woman was attacked about 5:30 p.m. Friday near the east entrance to the women's physical education complex at the school in the 16000 block of Crenshaw Boulevard, the campus police department reported in a statement.

The men accosted the woman as she walked near the complex, threatened her and forced her to walk inside, where one man sexually assaulted her while the other man served as a lookout, police said. The men escaped afterward.

The first man was described as black, 18-20 years of age, 5 feet 5 inches tall, with a medium build and short black hair. The second man was described as black, 18-22 years of age, with a light complexion and short hair.
