On November 9, 2007, Stanford donned new black road uniforms and throttled Yale 100-44.
"New uniforms, new team, new attitude," said three-time All-American Candice Wiggins. "I think the new black uniforms actually symbolize how our team is. We just have a different attitude - younger, fresher. It's an energetic bunch."
The young bunch included much-hyped freshman Kayla Pedersen. The 6-foot-4 forward followed a 15-point, nine-rebound effort in the opener with a 15-point, 16-rebound performance against Rutgers.
On January 27, 2011, Stanford donned its new Nike SuperElite® cardinal road uniforms and took to the forest-painted floor at Matthew Knight Arena.
Senior leader Kayla Pedersen's 11-point, 14-rebound effort helped demolish the Oregon Ducks 91-56.
In that span of time Kayla has:
Played in 133 games
Started every one of them
Played 4,166 minutes
Been the top scorer in 28 games
Been the top rebounder in 54 games
Had 37 double-doubles
Scored an average of 12.9 points
Grabbed an average of 8.5 rebounds
Dished out an average of 2.3 assists
Had an average of 1.8 turnovers
She has just broken and is on pace to shatter the longest-held Stanford career record — 4,148 minutes played, held by Virginia Sourlis since 1986.
By the end of this road trip, she will likely have broken the unofficial career record for games started — currently 135 by Candice.
Congratulations Kayla!!

Timely and well done, not to mention well deserved. Kayla has been and is awesome.
What more can be said . . ?
you put January 27, 2010.....its 2011. And from what Lisa Leslie was saying that Kayla already broke the record for minutes played.
Typo fixed - thanks! Yes, Kayla broke the record 8 minutes into the Oregon game.
