STANFORD, Calif. - No. 5 Stanford notched its sixth shutout of the season, breezing past Arizona 7-0 on Saturday afternoon at Taube Family Tennis Stadium.

Michaela Gordon looked sharp for the second straight day at the No. 2 spot, prevailing 6-1, 6-1 to extend the Cardinal's lead to 3-0.

Caroline Lampl provided the clincher with a 6-1, 6-2 victory on court three. Lampl is riding an 11-match winning streak, with her most recent loss coming back on Jan. 18.

Emily Arbuthnott and Janice Shin surrendered only seven games combined in their straight-set victories while Melissa Lord capped the shutout with a 7-6 (4), 6-3 win at the No. 1 position.
