Very impressive team win for Stanford. A few stars/comments from the game tonight:
1. Prechtel is very skilled - she can score and rebound;
2. Lexie is a stat-stuffing machine, and was a rebounding fool (coming up with several in heavy traffic);
3. Kiana again demonstrated why she is the most indispensable player on a deep and very talented roster;
4. Best sequence was when Stanford, in the process of earning a shot clock violation on Tennessee, managed to block 3 Vol shots on that one possession;
5. Haley Jones . . . you think she had a meh game . . . and then you check the stat line and remember some lovely (and explosive) takes to the rack;
6. Really impressed with 0 and 25 for Tennessee, as well as Massingill (sp?). The depth differential made a significant difference as the Vols started hot, but cooled considerably with fatigue (or at least that's my sense). And Tara was substituting very liberally, rotating in fresh bodies;
7. Hannah Jump is a very nice weapon to have lurking on the perimeter (and one of these days, she is going to go 7-8, or thereabouts, from behind the arc);
8. Did I mention this team is deep? And extremely fun to watch? Well, they certainly are.
Congrats to the players and the staff on a job exceptionally well done tonight.
