AMES, Iowa ? Iowa State fell to No. 11 Stanford, 195.800-194.550, at Hilton Coliseum Sunday afternoon. The Cyclones put together their best team score of the season and a season-best on the floor as well.

“It's encouraging,” ISU coach Jay Ronayne said. “If a couple things happened we would have been able to score a 195 and that's right where we want to be. There were a lot of things we did right.”
Iowa State fell behind after the first rotation, as Stanford posted a 49.300 on bars while the Cyclones earned a 48.575 on vault. Salfen's career best of 9.850 led the Cyclones, while Nikki Dilbert added a 9.800. For Stanford, Allyse Ishino and Tabitha Yim earned a score of 9.900 on bars.

At the end of the third rotation Stanford led 146.950-145.650. The Cyclones tallied a score of 48.400 on beam, while the Cardinal recorded a 48.700 on floor. Thompson led ISU with a 9.825 and Dilbert tied her career-best with a 9.775. Maccani set a career-high with a 9.775. On floor, Yim scored a 9.900 to lead Stanford.
