Stanford trailed lowly Oregon State at halftime, but came back for a convincing win. Wiggins and Smith combined to score 32; Newlin blocked five shots.

Coach VanderVeer wasn't happy. "I just hope that we're not the type of team that has to get a bloody nose in the fight before we start fighting," she said.

The sluggish first half reminded her of Thursday's Stanford triumph over Oregon, in which the Cardinal led at halftime only because Oregon couldn't score at all.
