Cardinal takes care of the Beavers

Jayne put her name in a special place in Stanford's record book tonight. She joined Val Whiting and Nicole Powell as the only women to score at least 2000 points and make 1000 rebounds in their careers. Jayne has 2005 points and 1202 rebounds — so far.

Tonight's game was unusual in that no Cardinal played for more than 28 minutes – the starting five, JJ, Mel, Michelle and Joslyn each played for at least ten. It was especially nice to see the five seniors playing together for several minutes in the second half.

The team took care of the Beavers, 82-48, without much trouble.

  • Nneka was the top scorer with 17 points.
  • Jayne had the only double-double (12 points, 10 rebounds).
  • Jeanette was again shooting and handling the ball very well (13 points, five assists, one turnover, two steals).
  • Kayla had nine points and five rebounds and held the Beaver's top scorer, Talisa Rhea, to one field goal.
