On the line tonight, Stanford is looking to lock up their first Pac 12 regular season title since the 2013-14 season. Let that soak in for a minute.

I just don’t see Aari McDonald as a viable POY candidate.
It's been a disappointing year for sure. By far her worst since she's been at UA.

84 straight double figure scoring games for Aari. That's pretty amazing. Just passed Plum for the Pac 12 record. Ionescu had 78.

Brink picked up foul #3 2 minutes into Q3. She'd been staying out of foul trouble for a nice stretch of games, but not tonight.

Add in Ware’s twice as wide as her shoulders pick stance not being called
I just saw her blatantly throw her caboose out to slow down a defender on a pick, no call.

Arizona cut at least an 11 point deficit down to 6.

Jones trying to take over for Stanford.

Jones throws some of the worst passes. Into traffic, no hope of it getting to its intended target.

Aari warming up a little bit. Now 6-18 for 16 points, but I think she was 2-13 at one point?

This one looks over. Arizona can't get scores and stops when they need them.

After a bit of a rally, Arizona right back where they started, down 12.

Aari is playing selfish ball tonight.

Big possession there. Brink hit 1 of 2 FTs, Stanford got an O board, kick out to Jump for a 3. Lead now 16.

Brink is a difference maker for Stanford... the missing piece. They are much stronger inside now that she is managing to stay on the floor longer than she did early.

I was hoping for a close game. I guess not.

I think Stanford needs to work on getting post entry passes to Brink. She had the much smaller Pueyo pinned, the ball kept swinging around but they never got it in to her. I watch her, she's always active re-positioning. They miss her way too often when she's open.


And she just picked up her 4th foul. 3 Cards converged on the shooter but they tagged her for the foul.

54-42 final media TO. Not quite over, but pretty close.

Jones decision making passing the ball is a head scratcher.
She has 6 of their 14 TOs. She really isn't a PG, I don't love them using her to initiate the offense as much as they do.

Unless AZ can get a couple 3's here and some stops, will be very difficult to come back now.

Too much of a hole they put themselves in.

Stanford not finishing strong, trying to leave the door open.
