Mar 13, 2025; Charlotte, NC, USA; Stanford Cardinal head coach Kyle Smith during the first half against the Louisville Cardinals at Spectrum Center. Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Ebuka Okorie looks to stay hot and keep Stanford out of the loss column as the Cardinal welcome Seattle University to Maples Pavilion on Friday.
Okorie ranks third in the country and first among freshmen averaging 25.5 points per game. He is coming off a 26-point outing in a 93-66 win against Louisiana on Tuesday, his fourth straight game posting over 20 points to begin his collegiate career.
“(That) was probably his best floor game,” Stanford head coach Kyle Smith said. “Obviously he scored, he seems to score all the time. But you’re starting to see the extra pass, starting to see the guys on a roll. … The better he gets, the better the next guy gets. It’s been fun to watch.”
Chisom Okpara added 22 points and five rebounds, and Cameron Grant had 15 points while going 5-for-11 from 3-point range on Tuesday for the Cardinal (4-0), who wrap up a five-game homestand on Friday.
“I was very pleased with the way we played tonight,” Smith said after the win against Louisiana. “The first 10 minutes were very competitive, and they’re tough.”
The Redhawks (3-1) have won two straight heading into their first road game of the season. They secured a 94-67 win against Eastern Washington on Nov. 12 and are coming off an 83-74 win Saturday against Idaho State, a game in which both teams scored 40 points in the second half.
“We went up 19 (points), and I think there were 11 minutes to go and a timeout, and I was talking to the guys about how the next three or four minutes would be the difference in the game,” Seattle head coach Chris Victor said. “Idaho State, we’ve got to give them credit, they fought the whole game. Thirteen offensive rebounds, which kicked our butts down low, but I’m proud of how we finished.”
Brayden Maldonado, who leads Seattle with 23.3 points per game, had 22 points, two rebounds and six assists against the Bengals, and Jojo Murphy added 14 points off the bench.
“Brayden made some free throws down the stretch to get us the stops that we needed,” Victor said. “And Jojo played great. … Good to see Jojo come in and score some points.”
Seattle went 4-11 on the road last season. Stanford went 17-3 at home after winning five straight at Maples Pavilion to kick off the 2024-25 campaign.

Grey Dawning imperious in Betfair Chase victory
Grey Dawning and an ice-cool Harry Skelton gained Betfair Chase revenge on last year’s winner Royale Pagaille to continue Dan Skelton’s dream run of form at Haydock.Ousted in a ding-dong tussle with Venetia Williams' dual winner 12 months ago, there was no mistake this time around, with Skelton never in a rush aboard the 10-11 favourite, as he allowed Handstands and Royale Pagaille to match strides early and head out for the final circuit in unison. Rebecca Curtis' Haiti Couleurs was disappointingly never a factor, while Gordon Elliott's Stellar Story could also never get involved, but there were three with a chance turning for home, where Charlie Deutsch had inched clear of Handstands who was under a drive from Ben Jones. Although Royale Pagaille jumped three out with an advantage, Grey Dawning was hot on his tail, travelling menacingly, and […]

Lossiemouth in cruise control to take Morgiana Hurdle
Lossiemouth took her first step towards a Champion Hurdle bid when breezing to victory in the Unibet Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown.A three-time Cheltenham Festival winner, rather frustratingly for some she has never taken part in the hurdling blue riband, instead dominating against her own sex at Prestbury Park the last two years. She ended last season by winning the Aintree Hurdle and with Willie Mullins' shuffling his pack following the season-ending injury to race regular and ace two-miler State Man, Rich Ricci's brilliant mare was seen as the perfect super-sub as she put her Champion Hurdle credentials to the test. Immediately to the front in the hands of Paul Townend, there was never a moment's worry for all connected, as the 1-5 favourite had her rivals under severe pressure two furlongs from home and her jockey able to look around […]

The Jukebox Man brilliant for Harry Redknapp at Haydock
Harry Redknapp’s The Jukebox Man found the scoresheet on his eagerly-awaited comeback, setting up a tilt at the King George VI Chase by romping to victory in the Betfair Exchange Graduation Chase at Haydock.Trained by Ben Pauling, the seven-year-old had been off the track since scooping Grade One honours in the Kauto Star Novices' Chase at Kempton last Christmas, and his team have always seen a return to the Sunbury track to tackle their Boxing Day feature as The Jukebox Man's 'cup final'. The 8-11 favourite for a race won by the likes of Grey Dawning, Bravemansgame and Clan Des Obeaux in the past, he was given an ultra-positive ride by Ben Jones as the duo never missed a beat to serve a reminder of his undoubted potential.
