    stanford WOMEN’S BASKETBALL Postgame Notes November 24, 2014 No. 5/1 Stanford 70 - New Mexico 65 Albuquerque, N.M. The Pit • Sophomore Karlie Samuelson started in place of an ailing Lili Thompson. It was Samuelson’s third career start. She was in the first five twice last season, on Nov. 23 at Texas and Feb. 21 at USC. • Samuelson made the most of it. She set career highs in points (23), field goals made (8), field goals attempted (16), 3-pointers made (6) and 3-pointers attempted (12). • Amber Orrange’s layup at the 3:01 mark of the first half were her seventh and eighth points of the game and the 999th and 1,000th of her career. She finished the night with 18 on 7-of-16 shooting and now has 1,010 in her career. Orrange is one of 35 Cardinal players to reach the 1,000-point milestone. • Orrange also added two assists and now has 441 in her career, tied for eighth in Stanford history with Molly Goodenbour (1989-83). • Freshman Kaylee Johnson registered the first double-double of her young career and the first for a Cardinal in 2014-15 with 10 points and 22 rebounds. The 22 boards tie her for third in Stanford single-game history with Mikaela Ruef (at Washington - Feb. 9, 2014) and are a program record for a freshman in a single game. Chiney Ogwumike (24) and Nnemkadi Ogwumike (23) are the only Cardinal players to pull down more rebounds in one game. • Johnson is now one of only nine Stanford players to record a game of 20 or more rebounds, joining Chiney Ogwumike (four times), Nnemkadi Ogwumike, Mikaela Ruef, Nicole Powell, Kayla Pedersen, Jayne Appel, Kathy Murphy and Maggie Nelson.
