The Arizona Schools are Coming to Maples This Weekend

The Arizona Wildcats are coming to town for a Friday evening game at 7PM. They're fresh off a sweep of the mountain schools and, after watching the game film from USC, they're likely feeling ready to
upset the 7th ranked Cardinal. In their last two games they beat the Utes by 11 and the Buffs by 12. Aari MacDonald is the 2nd leading scorer in the country at just over 25 points per game. Against the Buffalos, Cate Reese was their leading scorer and rebounder.

Stanford hopefully can use this game and the next three to get themselves ready to soar in the PAC12 tournament.


Then on Sunday at 1PM we tip off against the Arizona State Sun Devils. You know the 17th ranked Devils. Charlie is a hellofa coach. Ibis has the heart of a lion and finishes as well as any 6'-1" player in the west. Her unwavering spirit has infected the whole team as they fight their way through the PAC12. Last Sunday they pulled off the greatest comeback of the year, playing Utah down in Tempe. With 7:45 remaining, the Devils trailed the Utes by 18 and scored the last 20 points of the game and won by 2. That's showing the heart of your team. Enmark, Ryan, and Ibis were all in double figures and the Devils are on a 5 game winning streak.

They have no intention of losing on Sunday. They're a better, stronger, and tougher team than the one we beat down at their place in early January. This will be a battle - and Stanford needs to show the women's basketball world what they're made of. 

Come and support your 7th ranked Cardinal team!!
