Hannah Jump wins regular season title with Stanford
Hannah Jump celebrated helping Stanford win its first regular season title since the 2013-14 season.
The sharpshooting sophomore hit a three in the Cardinal’s Championship-clinching 62-48 success over number 9 ranked side Arizona to move to 18-2 in the conference.
Jump is averaging 6.7 points on the season having hit a season-high of 17 points in the previous victory against Arizona State as part of Stanford’s 10-game winning run.
The former England Under-16 junior international also hit 15 points on three separate occasions this season having made a total of 40 three-pointers at a 42% success rate.
Stanford are 21-2 on the season with their only defeats coming in successive games against Colorado and UCLA in January.
Last season, Holly Winterburn was a PAC-12 regular season winner with Oregon before the season was curtailed prior to the NCAA Tournament.
Stanford are ranked number 4 nationally, and will be the top seeds in the PAC-12 tournament with a bye in the opening round.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
