STANFORD, Calif. - No. 5 Stanford blanked No. 36 Washington State 4-0 on Friday afternoon, kicking off its final homestand of the regular season at Taube Family Tennis Stadium.

Recording its ninth shutout, Stanford (15-1, 6-0 Pac-12) moved one step closer to securing another regular-season conference title this weekend.

Leading 1-0 after doubles, the Cardinal received convincing singles wins from Emily Arbuthnott (6-2, 6-0) and Melissa Lord (6-2, 6-4) before Michaela Gordon added her second clincher of the season with a 6-2, 6-2 win over Michaela Bayerlova at the No. 1 position.
