Stanford 128, St. Mary’s 0

It was a cloudy Saturday morning and Stanford Women were ready for their second full 15′s game of the season against the Saint Mary’s Gaels. In the first minute Ono Nseyo used her speed to score the first try of the game. Stanford’s young team had some trouble with kick off catches, but soon worked their way into the game, making excellent decisions off set piece and breakdowns. Within the first 20 minutes many cardinal players had scored tries, and Amelia Villines skillfully converted many kicks for the extra points. Stanford left the first half 56-0 and were ready to face forty more minutes from the Gaels.

Saint Mary’s came back with a fiery kick, but did not overcome the quick and strong Cardinal. Emily Wyatt and Diana Peng made some smart moves off of scrums won by the Stanford pack and fast-moving centers ran through the Gael defensive line. Saturday was a true learning experience for the many players on the Cardinal team and Stanford reminded everyone of their talent for breaking through defensive lines and offensively dominating the game. The final score was 128-0. Stanford’s next game will be against the Davis Double Deckers 11:00 am on Sunday November 16th.
