Stanford returns home to close out regular-season play after taking on two top-20 opponents at the TCU Invitational, April 15-16. The Cardinal capped off its time at the TCU Invitational with wins over No. 16 Pepperdine and Missouri State Saturday morning, recording its second consecutive 20-win season for the first time in program history.
The weekend before, the Cardinal recorded three wins as hosts of the 2022 Pac-12 North Beach Invitational. The Cardinal secured two resume-building top-20 wins over the weekend with a 4-1 victory over No. 17 Arizona and a 3-2 win over No. 12 California, rebounding strong after a 5-0 swept dealt by No. 1 USC.
Stanford is building an impressive resume for postseason action. The NCAA Committee will select 16 teams to compete at the 2022 NCAA Championships in Gulf Shores, Ala.
Wins over ranked opponents- 7
All losses this season have come to a ranked opponent, with seven handed to the Cardinal by teams ranked in the top-10 and five by the No. 1 or No. 2 team in the nation (at time of play)
