Norfolk State Spartans faced
Stanford with an almost identical record of win loss
But going into the first game
as seeded 15 against Number 2 was burdened by a great albatross
Spiffy green uniforms pleasing
to the eyes to see
And after the first quarter
was trailing Stanford by only three
But then the quartet of
Iriafen, Bosgana, Jump and Brink
With shots dropping like falling leaves Norfolk’s upset dreams would sink
Stanford defense was like an
iron curtain and shut them down
79-50 with cheers still
ringing in Palo Alto town
This Sunday at 7:00 Stanford
plays Iowa State
Who trailing Maryland by 20
in 2nd half rallied to put a victory on its plate
Iowa State does not have a
Caitlin Clark to set the records for most career points scored
But does have freshman Audi
Crooks who in the win was at 40 points
on the floor
Worse this wrecking Cyclone
is 6’3 and looks like a lot of weight she carries
Cameron may be pushed back so
hard she will not be able to Crooks’ shots bury
More so than ever the hoopsters must be buoyed by fans
Viral fans at a viewing party
to see Stanford in viewing party land
We must prevent a repeat at Maples in 2023
An upset by Ole Miss 54-49 so
another trip to Sweet 16 Stanford fans would not see.
Our Stanford Women at Maples
will hear and respond to our cheers
Amplified by Tustin Brewing
