To cap off an up-and-down 2010-11 regular season, the Stanford men’s basketball team travels across the Bay to face rival California Saturday night. The Cardinal (15-14, 7-10 Pac-10) is coming off a 77-66 nonconference victory over Seattle University and will be looking for a season sweep of the Bears (16-13, 9-8), which would be its first since 2008.
In the highest-scoring game the men’s basketball team has played all season, Stanford coughed up a second-half lead and fell on the road Thursday night at Oregon State, 87-80. With the loss, the Cardinal extended its losing streak to four games and solidified its position in eighth place in the Pac-10 as the regular season winds down.
In the first game of the weekend homestand, the Stanford men’s basketball team fell to the UCLA Bruins last night by a score of 69-65.
