The Stanford Cardinal are (14-15) ran into some great offense from Colorado losing to the Buffaloes (17-13) 91-72 on Thursday night. In Stanford’s last two games they beat Oregon State and they almost beat Oregon but lost to them by two points 75-73. The Ducks were down at the half at Stanford and out played them in the second half and played them within a whisker. The Cardinal will have three players leaving after this season as last game was senior night Christian Sanders, Marcus Allen, and Grant Verhoeven.

Allen was the starter, Sanders and Verhoeven were back ups after this season most of the team is coming back next year but if they want to improve they’re going to have to do a better job of recruiting and get some more rebounding and some better three point shots and more consistent play if the Cardinal hope to get better in the Pac 12.
