Our season tickets don't cover this game?

Disregard---I see where season tickets do include this game!

What a great addition our schedule for the fans and it is already included in the season ticket package.

The names on the list below are impressive. Definitely the favorite for the Olympic Gold medal!

And the game is between two regular season games. I'm glad all of this 3 game stretch is at home.

Nov 5 (Tues) vs Little Rock
Nov 7 (Thurs) vs US National Team
Nov 10 (Sun) vs Duke

I'm excited for the season! This exhibition game against WNBA players will help this team see what it takes to play at the next level.

In her first game played at Stanford University since Feb. 29, 2012, Nneka Ogwumike (Los Angeles Sparks) upped her all-time win-loss record at Maples Pavilion to 65-0 in leading the USA National Team (1-0) to a 95-80 victory over her alma mater on Saturday evening.
Kelsey Plum and Chelsea Gray weren't available. Team USA takes on Oregon State tonight on the Pac-12 network (9PM CST), then fly here to play the Ags on Thursday. They fly back to Oregon to face the Ducks on Nov 9.

To only lose to the national team by 15 is really good. Stanford might give Oregon a challenge in the PAC 12.

I watched most of the game vs Oregon State last night. The Beavers have a couple of really good freshman posts. OSU kept it close until the second half, which was a little bit surprising based on watching. The national team individual defense is really impressive and it seemed like there were lots of turnovers.

Team USA focused on dominating the paint in the second half and built a big lead.

No Della Donne as noted but between Fowles, N Ogumwike, and Aja Wilson there are plenty of problems to defend in the paint.

I'd love to see how Chennedy Carter stacks up against the National Team.

This game is as good as it gets!
