Game ends 15-0.
Macario - 4 goals, 4 assists, 12 points.
Smith - 3 goals, 2 assists.
Bianca Caetano-Ferrara - 3 goals and 1 assists. Her first three of her career. All in the second half.
Sam Tran, 2 goals.
Abby Greubel scored 10 seconds into being on the pitch.
Shots: Stanford 41, Prairie View 0. They never got a shot off.
It is hard to write it up. The mismatch was actively painful. I do think Macario was on the pitch for too long.
The game got so out of hand because Prairie View just couldn't keep any kind of shape, and as Stanford streamed forward, they collapsed into an amorphous line that let the Cardinal go through them, behind them, around them. They just stopped playing as a team in the face of so much pressure. Without any offensive threat, Stanford often had two defenders standing at the midline, the goalie, and 8 players with 30 yards of the goal.
Hofstra vs. Loyola Chicago tomorrow. On the other side of our pod, 4-seed Penn State beat Stony Brook 3-1 at home, and Arizona hosts TCU tomorrow.
Some other scores - Utah got hammered at Duke, 4-0, but WSU beat Memphis at home 1-0, and UCLA beat Lamar 4-1.
Upsets: Central Connecticut State (go Blue Demons!) beat #4 seed Rutgers 1-0, visiting Xavier beat Va Tech, and South Florida beat the Gators in Gainesville, 4-2. CCSU is in Virginia's pod.
