Chiney had a field day under the basket at both ends of the court. On offense, she grabbed 11 rebounds, and she made nine of 15 shots and nine of ten free throws. On defense, she grabbed another 13 rebounds, blocked three shots and stole the ball four times.
Her total of 24 rebounds broke the Stanford single-game record of 23 that Nneka made in Oregon in 2010. Chiney's career rebound total is now 1,010, and she is the sixth Cardinal with at least 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds, (The others are Nneka, Jayne Appel, Val Whiting, Nicole Powell and Kayla Pedersen.)
Her 24 rebounds and 27 points are the 52nd double-double of her career, and that breaks the Stanford record set by Nneka in 2008-2012.
The Cardinal launched a lot of shots from beyond the arc against the Ducks' zone defense, but made only 21% of them – Sara and Bonnie each made two and Taylor and Jasmine each made one. The Cardinal defense held the Ducks to fewer than that — they made only three (14%) of their long shots.
Amber continued her strong offense with 12 points and four assists. She also tallied a block, a steal and three rebounds.
Michaela continued her good defense with nine rebounds, a block and a steal. She could have had an almost-double-double, but she got careless with her free throws and missed three of them.
In other Pac-12 action today, Cal almost let one slip away. They were down by 12 to OSU at the break, but rallied and eked out a two-point win.
Colorado defeated Washington and moved up into a tie with them for fourth place. Colorado is likely to gain sole possession of fourth place next week – it plays the Oregon schools and Washington plays Stanford and Cal.
UCLA defeated USC again, but is not yet secure in its third place position. UCLA has to defeat both Arizona schools next week to ensure that it stays ahead of Colorado.
