The Arizona weekend has turned into one from hell, as the Cardinal were swept by both Arizona teams after the Wildcats win over Stanford 60-57 on Sunday afternoon. It’s the first time the Cardinal were swept on a Pac-12 road trip since 2008, where USC and UCLA gave Stanford fits.

The Cardinal completely collapsed in the second half, as they went into halftime with a 12-point lead. Arizona came out of the half strong, dominating the Cardinal on a 15-6 run that lasted ten minutes. The last minute was the most crucial though, as Arizona was able to go on a 10-0 run to finish the win.

Candice Warthen had seven of the final ten points, as she led the Wildcats with 19 points. It marks Arizona’s first win over Stanford in 25 attempts. Sunday is just Arizona’s second conference win of the season.

Amber Orrange and Lili Thompson each led the way for the Cardinal with 13 points apiece. They were the only Cardinal to get into double figures in scoring. Bonnie Samuelson, Karlie Samuelson and Taylor Greenfield did get close with eight points each.

The Cardinal look to rebound from the loss, with a home game back on Maples Pavilion against USC on Friday.
