WSU fends off Stanford for massive win, 66-60

The Washington State Cougars went down to the Bay Area and got revenge on the Stanford Cardinal, holding on for a big conference win 66-60.

Despite a late run from Stanford (13-8, 6-5 in Pac-12) to pull within three after trailing by 16, WSU (13-7, 6-3) got clutch stops on defense and bigman Efe Abogidi knocked home three free throws to allow the Cougars to escape.

WSU came out the gates strong on both ends of the court. Guards Michael Flowers and Tyrell Roberts combined for 22 points and four three-pointers in the first half.
