Colorado suffers heartbreaking loss to No. 8 Stanford

The University of Colorado women’s basketball team narrowly lost to No. 8 Stanford 69-66 on Sunday afternoon at the CU Events Center. Colorado had this game circled on their calendars after losing in a relatively similar fashion to the Cardinal on Jan. 24 in Palo Alto.
