STANFORD, Calif. -- Tara VanDerveer knows that nostalgia has its place. And it's not in the 40 minutes that takes place after ball is tipped into the air.
"I love Jennifer, but I love winning more," VanDerveer said.
Luckily for the Hall of Fame coach, her team didn't make her choose between Jennifer Azzi, the player who "put Stanford on the map," and advancing to the next round of the NCAA tournament.
Fourth-seeded Stanford got a balanced, complete, impressive performance on Saturday night to defeat No. seed 13 San Francisco 85-58 at Maples Pavilion, handing Azzi a loss in her first NCAA tournament game as a head coach.
