I happened to catch the end of the USD-Stanford game replay this morning on Pac 12 Network as I was getting ready for work and it looks like Coach Smith's boys were in it until the end against the Cardinal.
Not sure just how good Stanford is this year, but I'll be interested in keeping an eye on USD this season.
"Our defense is really coming along," Coyotes' coach Craig Smith said. "Our guys executed the game plan very well on both ends of the floor. Our guys dug their feet in the sand, stood their ground and gave ourselves a chance."
Sekou Harris hit a 3-pointer and then made a free throw to cut Stanford's lead to 65-59 with 7:26 left in the contest. That would be as close as they would come.
