STANFORD, Calif.—No. 2 Stanford defeated CSUN 104-40 Wednesday night in women's basketball action at Maples Pavilion.
FIRST HALF
The Cardinal connected on its first five field goal attempts to jump out to a 14-3 lead. The Matadors battled back, cutting the lead to 17-11 on a Cheyenne Givens three-pointer with just under three to go. The Cardinal scored six consecutive points to end the frame and led by 12 heading into the second.
The Cardinal extended the run to 14-0 before Ana Carolina De Jesus scored at the 7:24 mark. Stanford pushed the spurt to 18-2 as Givens connected on her second three of the game. The Cardinal made seven of its first 11 attempts in the second quarter to lead 39-19 at the media timeout midway through the period. Stanford shot 10-of-18 for the second and 17-for-30 for the half as the Cardinal led 50-19 at halftime.
SECOND HALF
Hannah Jump made three three-pointers in the first five minutes of the third quarter to push the Stanford advantage to 62-24 at the halfway point of the period. The Cardinal sank six three-pointers (of seven makes) and took a 72-31 lead into the final 10 minutes. Stanford outscored CSUN 32-2 in the fourth period to create the final score.
ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH CARLENE MITCHELL
"I don't know if I am as disappointed on this one as I was at Cal. Our kids are getting the chance to play at the No. 2 team in the country, there is a lot of things you can learn from that. You have to play with discipline and not send a team like Stanford to the line as much as we did. We got a lot of open looks, but we didn't knock them down. Macy competed and we understand why we brought Cheyenne in as a grad student."
THE STATS
Lauren Betts scored 16 of her game-high 18 points in the fourth quarter. Jump recorded 17 Cameron Brink charted a double-double of 11 points and 11 rebounds. Kiki Iriafen had 10. Cheyenne Givens led CSUN with eight points. Tess Amundsen and Macy Smith both scored seven.
The Cardinal shot 55.9% from the field for the game (33-of-59), holding CSUN to 25% (14-of-56) shooting for the night. Stanford went 13-of-19 from the free throw line in the first half, 27-of-37 in the game. The Matadors were 8-of-13 from the charity stripe. The Cardinal outrebounded CSUN 50-26. Stanford had 22 assists compared to six turnovers. The Matadors recorded 15 turnovers and six assists.
NOTES
Wednesday marked the fifth time that CSUN and Stanford played women's basketball with Stanford leading the all-time series 5-0…all five games have been played at Stanford…Wednesday marked the 35th time the Matadors faced a nationally ranked opponent since moving to the Division I level in time for the 1990-91 season…CSUN allowed over 100 points for only the 16th time since joining Division I…Stanford improved to 2-0 on the year…Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry and his wife Ayesha attended the game and sat in the front row near the CSUN bench.
