STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Stefan Nastic scored 20 points and Dwight Powell added 15 more as Stanford muscled its way to a 79-62 win over visiting Cal Poly on Saturday night.
Powell and Nastic gave Stanford (9-3) a big size advantage down low, as the two members of the Cardinal frontcourt paced the team in the first half before a barrage of 3-pointers put the game out of reach. Stanford held a 33-20 lead at intermission and ran away in the second half, as cold-shooting Cal Poly (4-8) went just 35.4 percent from the field on the evening.
Stanford guard Chasson Randle caught fire with a trio of 3-pointers in the second half en route to a 20-point performance. Reserve big man John Gage also chipped in eight points off the bench in the second half to spark the Cardinal, who looked sloppy to start the game.
