Stanford handed Tennessee its first loss of the season, downing the Lady Vols 74-63 Saturday.

Haley Jones led the Cardinal, notching 18 points, 19 rebounds and six assists, while Hannah Jump and Lexie Hull each added 11 points to Stanford’s tally.

After pulling ahead 43-26 at halftime, Stanford’s lead began to slip away as Tennessee outscored the Cardinal 20-9 in the third quarter. Stanford, however, was able to hold off Tennessee down the stretch with the help of Ashten Prechtel, who ended the game with 12 points and six rebounds.

With Saturday’s win, Stanford improves to 8-2 on the season.
