2009-2010 schedule announced

Update your social calendar for another season of Awesome Stanford Women's Basketball — the 2009-2010 schedule was announced today. Tara call it "the most competitive schedule in my time here at Stanford".

Play starts with a couple of exhibition games at Maples, then the team heads east for games against Old Dominion and Rutgers. If your other commitments allow for a big away trip, this will be a good one. See the FBC Travel blog for more information.

Then the Cardinal comes home for seven games, one away (but not very far) against U.C. Davis and the rest at Maples. The opponents include four strong teams — Utah, Gonzaga, Duke and Tennessee.

Then it's back east to Storrs, CT for the first annual Stanford/UConn game just before Christmas. The bad news for Cardinal fans is that it will be tough to travel to this game unless you're going back home to the east coast for Christmas. The good news is that the game will be televised on ESPN2.

See the FBC Schedule for the complete schedule of games and FBC Events. Note that there's a link back to last season's schedule and results, which has a link to the Story of the Season posting for each game. If you don't remember how the Cardinal did against Vanguard in last season's exhibition game, you can find out here.
