No. 13 Stanford (1-0) rode the shoulders of an explosive offensive playmaker, who posted 200-plus yards and entered his name into the early-season Heisman discussion, en route to win over SDSU (0-1) on Friday night.

A weekend of packed action came to a fruitful close for Stanford men’s tennis, as the 16th-ranked Cardinal won hard-fought matches over Idaho and No. 17 Michigan in the NCAA Championships to reach the Sweet 16.
