Gonzaga brings perfect start for No. 3 Stanford to a halt with 96-78 win

Associated Press  

SPOKANE, Wash. — Brynna Maxwell scored a season-high 27 points, Yvonne Ejim added 25 points and 12 rebounds, and Gonzaga handed No. “Celebrating in the locker room is part of the deal at Gonzaga and I’m happy to be a part of it too.” Stanford’s perfect start to the season came crashing down behind a barrage of hot shooting by the Bulldogs. “Our players played really hard, but Gonzaga was clearly the better team,” Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. They were the more aggressive team today and we didn’t rebound well or shoot free throws well.” The Zags jumped out to a 20-12 lead in the first quarter behind the efforts of Maxwell and Ejim, who both contributed eight points in the quarter. “We’ve put in the work and we knew we could do it.” BIG PICTURE Stanford: Despite shooting 57% for the game, the Cardinal were held 22 points below their season average.
