Duets and singles were also showcases for the Cardinal. Koroleva and Morgan won the duet competition, while Durand and Debbie Chen placed second. Jessica Guenther won singles and Gayle Lee was second. Morgan won the elements competition as well to give Stanford a clean sweep.

Stanford’s next test will take place at home from March 11-13 against the best college teams in the country.
