Scott Uyeno

Scott posted 25 pictures to a flickr set including one of Sara James going up for 2,

and a nice action shot of Grace Mashore on point:

Michael Li

Michael posted 18 pix to his flickr set including a great 3-shot sequence of Kayla taking a charge. The middle shot got bleached out by the professional sports guy's strobe-light, but Michael saved it by making it monochrome:

He also posted several shots of the seniors post-game, including Jeanette and John Pohlen:

Baranduin Briggs

Baranduin, who works on weekends, took a long (long!) lunch-break to attend the game and put 36 pictures on set to continuous including a great shot of Jeanette getting a held-ball (or maybe a foul),

and one of Sara James getting hacked,

Dave Cortesi

We posted 23 pictures to a smugmug gallery, with a couple of action shots but mostly some very nice portraits of the seniors at the post-game talk:

Stanford at UCLA, 19 February 2011

Michael Li

Michael posted 24 shots of this game to his flickr set, including a jumper by Kayla (check the expressions in the front row of the band),

of Chiney being interviewed post-game,

and a nice head-shot of a relaxed Kayla savoring the win.

Baranduin Briggs

Baranduin tells the following story:

I sat next to a friendly UCLA fan during the game. "What year is #13?" he asked. "Freshman." I replied. "Oh. She looks so young, but she sure doesn't play that way" Later... "What year is #31? She just seems to be able to anticipate the ball!" "Also a freshman." He sighed, thinking, I'm sure, about the next three years. "You guys sure got some good players!"

She posted 36 pics to set to continuous including ones of #s 13 & 31:

Nneka sez: 'What? You want this ball?'

Check the look on Tara's face, lower right.

Stanford at ASU, 3 February 2011

James Davis

The blogmeister forgot and left his camera at the hotel! Luckily, James Davis had remembered his, and sends along the following shots from Wells Fargo Arena. Click through for larger images!

Charli T.T. and Tara VdV renew acquaintance before the game.

For the second time in two games, tip-off went to the opposition.

Almost completely obscured by defenders, Kayla lays it in.

Finding space among four defenders, Kayla hits a jumper.

Funny, you can't see any bruises at this distance. They were there, though.
