Stanford is 6-4 so far this season with wins over UC San Diego (exhibition), UC Riverside, CSU Bakersfield, Kent State, Belmont, San Francisco, and UNLV. Losses to (then #5) Ohio State (on 11/10), #1 UConn, (then #9) Ohio State again (on 11/25), and #9 Baylor. Last year, Stanford went 32-6 overall, winning the Pac 12 Conference Tournament, making it to the Final Four of the NCAA tournament (taking down #1 seed Notre Dame in the process) before falling to eventual national champion South Carolina. They look to be a little down this year vs last year, but this is still going to be a very tough test.

Gonzaga is 5-4 so far this season, with wins over Montana, Kent State, Eastern Washington, Portland State, and Washington State and losses to Colorado State, Belmont, DePaul, and UNLV. Last year, they finished 26-7, beat Saint Mary's in the West Coast Conference championship, and lost to Oklahoma in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Also another tough test against another NCAA tournament team from last year.

Danny Frey was at his ultimate best in this one. The ladies did not do too badly either and take down the Cardinal 71-64. After that 2nd qtr when we only put up 3pts, I had my doubts. This has to be the biggest win in WBB history.

Stanford had beat UNLV 74-33 on Saturday and has a big home game on Thursday vs #7 Tennessee.

Emily Clemens led the Western scoring with 26 points. Taylor Higginbotham had 17. Olivia Braun and Morgan Blumer each had 12.

Western was 5 for 28 on three-point attempts.

Attendance at Stanford = 2,254.
