Raynaud, Blakes double up to help send Stanford past Cal 78-73 in 2nd round of ACC Tourney

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Maxime Raynaud scored 23 points and Jaylen Blakes scored 21 points and seventh-seed Stanford beat No. 15 seed Cal 78-73 in the second round of the ACC Tournament. Stanford (20-12) advances to face second-seeded Louisville. Playing for a chance to reach overtime for the third-straight game and trailing 76-73, Cal's Mady Sissoko was called for a blocking foul attempting to set a screen for Andrej Stojakovic with 6.9 seconds remaining. Cal then intentionally fouled Raynaud who made two free throws with five seconds left to seal the win. Stojakovic scored a career-high 37 as he made his first seven shots.
