Stanford women fall 85-76 to Washington in regional final

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Stanford put itself in an early hole and could never dig its way out

Thanks to that sluggish start, the Cardinal's season is finished.

Washington scored the game's first 12 points and led all the way Sunday as the seventh-seeded Huskies beat No. 4 seed Stanford 85-76 in the NCAA Lexington Regional women's basketball final.

"We just for some reason did not come out with the intensity and aggressiveness that we needed to," Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. But I'm really proud of our team. We had a great season.
