All that ailed them last week—rebounding and fouls, in particular—was healed by the time Stanford arrived in Tucson. The Cardinal dominated from the opening tip to defeat Arizona women’s basketball 84-60.
The Cardinal ended their game against Washington with just 24 rebounds. For a team that averages almost 50, it was a huge drop. That problem had been fixed by Thursday when they had 15 in the first quarter while Arizona grabbed just seven.
Arizona head coach Adia Barnes went with a more offensive-oriented team for most of the game. Helena Pueyo played 33 minutes, Cate Reese played 31, Esmery Martinez played 26, and Madi Conner was on the floor for 20.
