STANFORD, Calif. – No. 3 Stanford concludes a three-game road stretch Friday against Oregon State at 7 p.m. (PT).
 
The Cardinal (11-1-1, 4-1 Pac-12) split a pair of contests last weekend in Los Angeles in its first road matches in over a month. Stanford dropped a 3-0 decision at No. 7 USC and earned a 3-2 double-overtime victory at No. 10 UCLA.
 
Maddie Bauer scored her first collegiate goal in the 103rd minute against to Bruins to secure the victory. Andi Sullivan and Michelle Xiao also contributed goals, while Megan Turner and Kyra Carusa notched an assist apiece.
 
Sullivan, a MAC Hermann Trophy candidate, matched her single-season career-high in goals with her fifth of the year at UCLA. She now has a career-best 14 points on the season.
 
Carusa has contributed at least one point in 8-of-13 games this season.
 
The Cardinal has scored two or more goals in 11-of-13 games this season, while limiting opponents to one goal or fewer in all but two matches. Stanford has not trailed in 11-of-13 games.
 
Sullivan and goalkeeper Jane Campbell will join the U.S. Women's National Team for a training camp and two games against Switzerland following Friday's game against Oregon State.
 
Live statistics will be available for Friday's match.

Maddie Bauer scored her first collegiate goal in a 3-2 double-overtime win at No. 10 UCLA.

For Cardinal and Country
Andi Sullivan and Jane Campbell were selected to the full U.S. Women's National Team camp, as announced last Thursday by head coach Jill Ellis.
 
Sullivan and Campbell are two-of-three collegiate players selected to the October camp. BYU forward Ashley Hatch also earned an invitation. It is Campbell's second career call-up and the first for Sullivan.
 
The duo is part of a 24-player group selected to the camp as the U.S. prepares for a pair of matches against Switzerland in Sandy, Utah, (Oct. 19) and Minneapolis (Oct. 23). Ellis will select 18 players for the roster for each match.

Sullivan Makes Her Case
Andi Sullivan established herself as a legitimate MAC Hermann Trophy candidate a year ago as a sophomore and has picked up where she left off with an impressive junior campaign. The defensive midfielder has started all 13 games and leads the team with 14 points, accumulating five goals and four assists.
 
Sullivan's impact goes beyond statistics. Her leadership, defense, distribution and ability to attack with pace makes her a unique centerpiece. Sullivan is an elite defender with a blistering shot from distance and shoulders a majority of the free-kick and corner kick responsibilities.
 
Head coach Paul Ratcliffe: "Andi is making a huge impact on our team. She's the engine in our midfield and has excellent technical ability, speed and power.
 
"It is very rare to find a player with all of the attributes Andi possesses. Yet, Andi's strongest quality is her leadership. She is one of the strongest leaders that I have ever coached."

Stanford enters the eighth week of the 2016 season ranked No. 3 in the NSCAA Coaches Poll, No. 6 in the TopDrawerSoccer rankings and No. 4 in the Soccer America rankings.

During that stretch, Stanford allowed two goals 27 times, which comes out to once every 9.96 matches.
