As the Stanford Cardinal women's basketball team prepares to welcome the San Diego State Aztecs to Maples Pavilion, fans are anticipating a competitive clash. The upcoming game, set within the iconic venue known for its vibrant atmosphere, promises to be a thrilling encounter.

The Cardinal come into this match with solid statistics from the previous season that should give their supporters reasons for optimism. With an average of 72 points per game and shooting 44 percent from the field, their offensive prowess is notable. Their free throw percentage stands at a reliable 73 percent, while their true shooting percentage hovers around 53 percent. From beyond the arc, they have been hitting at a rate of 32 percent and have shown efficiency inside with a two-point field goal percentage of 51 percent.

Defensively, Stanford has been assertive as well. They've averaged over seven blocks and eight steals per game – numbers that reflect their ability to disrupt opponents' play. On the boards, they've been dominant with an average of nearly 41 rebounds per game which could prove crucial against San Diego State.

However, ball security might be an area for improvement as they've turned over the ball almost 16 times on average each game last season. Discipline on defense will also be key since they averaged about 17 personal fouls per contest.

Maples Pavilion has historically provided an edge for Stanford due to its raucous home crowd support which can unsettle visiting teams. The Cardinal will look to leverage this advantage and continue building upon their statistical strengths from last season.
