The Pac 10 Tournament begins Friday at 6PM with # 7 Oregon playing # 10 Washington State. Should be a romp in the park for Oregon.
At 8:15, # 8 Oregon State plays # 9 Arizona. I think Arizona will prevail in this one.
Four games on Saturday with the first at 11:00, matching # 3 Arizona State against # 6 Washington. Both teams have been playing well lately, the Huskies with their huge win over Cal and Charli’s Angels winning both of their LA games. I believe it will be a close game, and an ASU win.
At 1:15 # 2 Cal takes on # 7 Oregon, if Oregon wins on Friday. Cal will stay focused and win by 12.
After goodies for the Fast Break Club, Stanford, the # 1 seed, meets the winner of a close Arizona-Oregon State contest. This game starts at 5:00. I believe it will be Arizona, but no matter, Stanford should win.
At 7:15 the final Saturday game will match the # 4 seed USC Trojans against the # 5 seed UCLA Bruins. OK, I’ll be rooting for USC so why not just predict them as the winner? OK done.
Sunday at Noon, the winner of the ASU-Washington game takes on the winner of the
Cal – Oregon (I predict) game. This game is almost too close to call, except I’m here predicting, so I’ll take Hampton and Walker over Lacey and Dosty and a very close Cal win.
At 2:30 Stanford, if the Card beats the OSC-Arizona winner, they take on the winner of the USC-UCLA game. Stanford over USC it says here.
The Final, which I believe will be Game three this season of Stanford –Cal basketball, starts at 7:30. No jinxing allowed, I’ll pass on a prediction, but I’ll be loud at the game.
Both the Final and Sunday’s 2:30 game are on FSBA. Which on Sunday are two different Channels because of the Sharks game.
Jillian Harmon might return this weekend, how about a Standing O when she takes the floor.
A final fantastic remark, congrats to Candice, Pac 10 Player of the Year, Kayla, Pac 10 Frosh of the Year and Tara, Pac 10 Coach of the Year.

The Pac 10: Stanford is the Champion
1. Stanford (27-3, 16-2) Won the Pac 10 Championship outright, Candice breaks the all time Pac 10 scoring record, not a bad weekend at all. Candice Wiggins broke Lisa Leslie’s Pac 10 scoring record as she had 46 points this weekend. She wrapped up what surely will be Player of the Year honors and for good measure had 6 assists against WSU. Jayne Appel had 7 assists in the win at Washington, where JJ Hones added 4 three’s. Stanford had 21 three’s in the two games.
2. Cal (24-5, 15-3) Lost to Washington to lose their share of the Pac 10 title. They now have the # 2 seed in the Pac 10 Tournament. Lauren Greif had 4 three’s against Washington, and Alexis Gray-Lawson had 17 points, 29 for the weekend. Ashley Walker had 21 points and 17 points and Devanei Hampton had 25 points and 14 rebounds in the two games.
3. Arizona State (20-9, 14-4) Swept the LA schools in LA to make the Dance and be the # 3 seed in the Pac 10 tournament. Lauren Lacy was the big scorer for the weekend with 25 points. Briann January scored 17 in the win at UCLA.
4. USC (17-12, 10-8) Playing without Nadia Parker, and for the NCAA’s, lost twice to the Arizona schools. Camille LaNoir scored 35 points in the two games, while Morghan Medlock had 16 points and 19 rebounds in the two games.
4. UCLA (15-14, 10-8) Beat Arizona and lost to ASU. Lindsey Pluimer led the Bruins again with 29 points in the two games.
6. Washington (13-17, 8-10) Upset Cal to cap a pretty good record despite their youth, injuries and turmoil.
Sami Whitcomb made 5 of 9 three’s for 24 points in the upset of Cal. Emily Florence, the 5’5” guard had 17 rebounds, 8 assists and only 2 turnovers in the two games.
7. Oregon (13-16, 7-11) Ellie Manou had 18 points and Tamika Nurse had 16 points to lead the Ducks over the Beavers
8. Oregon State (11-18, 4-14) Alex Mitchell had her first double, double with 10 points and 14 rebounds in the loss to Oregon. Tiffany Ducker had 17 points in that game.
8. Arizona (10-19, 4-14) Beat USC for a big road win, then lost to UCLA. Ashley Whisonant scored 28 in the two games. Ify Ibekwe added 28 points and 20 rebounds and Amina Njonkou had 27 points and 16 rebounds for the weekend.
10. WSU (5-24, 2-16) Lost twice to Cal and Stanford. Katie Appleton had 29 points in the two games.
A note, the 4 games in LA drew and average of about 800 fans. Sad.
