The conference had five teams bounced on the opening weekend with Oregon’s Sweet 16 streak ended and Arizona losing big at home.
Stanford, the final major college team standing in 2021, is the only Pac-12 team still alive going into the 2022 Sweet Sixteen.
“It adds a lot of excitement, but I didn’t want it happening to us,” said Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer, who at halftime Sunday had reason to wonder about the outcome of the Cardinal’s matchup against No. 8 seed Kansas. Stanford’s 6-foot-1 junior forward Fran Belibi had arguably the signature play of NCAA opening weekend, converting a steal near the top of the key into a one-handed dunk in the second quarter against Montana State.
“They’ve been getting on me all year about not dunking so far. The freshmen have been like, ‘We came here for this, so where is it?’ So it was really cool to get it and to make it happen and then to just get engulfed. I felt really loved.” The No. 4-seeded Wildcats trailed UNLV at the end of the third quarter Saturday to win their first-round game.
Arizona did claw within seven midway through the third quarter, only to be hit with a 19-2 run by the Tar Heels before another big but mostly disappointed crowd at McKale Center .
