Stanford Earns Revenge for Previous Matchup by Upseting Oregon to Win Pac-12 Tournament Title

LAS VEGAS — Stanford got a measure of revenge en route to winning another Pac-12 Tournament title.

DiJonai Carrington scored 22 points, and the seventh-ranked Cardinal erased some unpleasant recent history against No. 6 Oregon, beating the Ducks 64-57 on Sunday night.

For the Cardinal, it was their 13th championship of the 18 Pac-12 tournaments. Stanford lost to Oregon last season in the title game, and the Cardinal also were routed by 40 points a month ago by the Ducks—the worst defeat in Hall of Fame coach Tara VanDerveer's career.

''I think that was something that we had in our minds ever since we lost that game,'' said Stanford's Alanna Smith, who earned Most Outstanding Player honors for the tournament.
