No. 3 Stanford Routed By No. 22 DePaul, VanDerveer Stays At 799

CHICAGO (AP) -- Keisha Hampton scored 23 of her 27 points in the second, Felicia Chester had a career-high 24 and No. 22 DePaul routed No. 3 Stanford 91-71 on Thursday night, denying Cardinal coach Tara VanDerveer her 800th career victory.

VanDerveer -- 799-196 in her 32nd season as a head coach—had hoped to join Pat Summitt, Jody Conradt, C. Vivian Stringer and Sylvia Hatchell as women's college coaches with 800 wins. That milestone will have to wait and her next try will be a challenge when the Cardinal play against Summitt and Tennessee on Sunday.

After leading by only two at the half, DePaul broke away in the second with a 17-2 run and by hitting seven 3-pointers. The Blue Demons (13-1) have won 10 straight.

Jeanette Pohlen led Stanford (6-1) with 23 points. The Cardinal played without senior Kayla Pedersen, who was kept out with a head injury.
