STANFORD, Calif. (Interstat) — An early-season, cross-Bay Area women’s basketball matchup tips off Thursday when the Santa Clara Broncos visit the Stanford Cardinal at Maples Pavilion.

Both teams enter the nonconference clash with 1-0 records after dominant season-opening victories on Monday. Santa Clara routed Stanislaus State 108-52, showcasing a balanced attack. Kylee Fox led the way with 18 points, while Ashley Hawkins added 16 points and eight rebounds, and Delainey Miller posted a near double-double with eight points and 11 rebounds.

Stanford was equally impressive in an 87-42 win over UNC Greensboro. The Cardinal saw strong backcourt production from Chloe Clardy, Lara Somfai and Hailee Swain, who combined for 39 points.

The game marks a stiff early test for the Broncos before a challenging stretch that includes a trip to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi next Tuesday. For Stanford, it is the second of a three-game homestand to open the season before a road trip to face Washington State and Gonzaga next weekend.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. PST at Maples Pavilion in Palo Alto.
