Oregon women upset No. 19 Stanford
EUGENE, Ore. » Jillian Alleyne registered her NCAA-best 27th double-double of the season, scoring 22 points with 12 rebounds, and Oregon upset No. 19 Stanford 62-55 on Sunday, snapping an 18-game losing streak to the Cardinal dating back to Dec. 29, 2004.
After a tightly-contested first half, No. 19 Stanford (21-9, 13-5 Pac-12) led 30-29 at the break.
Oregon (13-16, 6-12 Pac-12) went on a 15-2 run early in the second — including seven consecutive made free throws and a pair of layups by Alleyne — and a few moments later Amanda Delgado drilled a 3-pointer to put the Ducks up by 11 with 7:01 to go.
Stanford simply couldn’t make a run, hitting just 3 of 10 shots and not reaching the line in the last 6 1/2 minutes.
Stanford was led by Lili Thomson with 14 points and Amber Orrange with 13.
