STANFORD, Calif. -- Reid Travis scored 22 points and grabbed 15 rebounds to lead Stanford to a 67-49 victory over Weber State on Thursday night.Travis, who missed the final 22 games last season with a stress fracture in his leg, is averaging 21.7 points and 12.3 rebounds in three games.Its nice to finally be healthy, Travis said. Ive had a good spring and summer to work on my game, which I havent had the luxury of the past two years.Dorian Pickens added 12 points for the Cardinal (3-0), who ended the first half on a 24-5 run. Forward Michael Humphrey chipped in nine points.The guards did a really good job, Humphrey said. There was a ton of ball pressure. I dont know if they ever got a clean look they were happy with.Jeremy Senglin, coming off a career-high 29 points in a 69-68 loss at Pepperdine on Tuesday, led the Wildcats with 13 points but shot 3 of 9 from the floor.Theyve got good length and they close on you pretty quickly. I thought their length and their size bothered us quite a bit, Weber State coach Randy Rahe said. But we missed five or six wide-open looks in the first half.The Wildcats (1-2) led 15-12 after a dunk by Zach Braxton, but the Cardinal responded with a 10-0 spurt to seize control. Stanford extended its lead to 36-20 by halftime and the visitors never got closer than 13 points the rest of the way in the first-ever meeting between the schools.Stanford remains undefeated under new coach Jarod Haase, thanks to a defense that limited the Wildcats to 30-percent shooting.Weber State entered the game converting 56 percent from 3-point range (23 for 41) but made just 1 of its first 14 attempts and finished 3 for 20.BIG PICTUREStanford: A year after averaging just 69.6 points to rank 254th nationally in its final season under coach Johnny Dawkins, the Cardinal averaged 88 points in its first two games with Haase at the helm.

The Wildcats are 16-49 all-time against current members of the Pac-12, and 14 of those victories were against Utah.FREE THROW PROGRESS: Travis shot just 47 percent from the free-throw line his first two seasons at Stanford, but was 8 for 9 against Weber State and is 15 for 19 the past two games. Assistant coach Jeff Wulbrun approached Travis last spring and asked him if he was willing to change his shooting form.I did a lot of reps to change my shot, Travis said. It was a 3-month process. Its nice to shoot the same shot every time and have confidence in it.HALL OF FAME NIGHT: Former Stanford coach Mike Montgomery will be enshrined in the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame on Friday night in ceremonies at Kansas City. Montgomery won a school-record 393 games and four conference titles in 18 seasons at Stanford, and guided the Cardinal to the 1998 Final Four.Haase, who played his freshman year of college at rival Cal, said Montgomery tried hard to recruit him to Stanford. Hes extremely deserving of being in the Hall of Fame, Haase said. Im anxious to get on the plane (Friday) morning and see it firsthand.Others in the 2016 class are Mark Aguirre, Bob Boozer, Doug Collins, Lionel Simmons, Jamaal Wilkes, Dominique Wilkins and coach Hugh Durham.UP NEXTStanford closes its three-game home stand Sunday against Colorado State (2-0), which plays on the road for the first time.Weber State, already coming off two road games, prepares to bundle up for a trip to Anchorage for the Great Alaska Shootout.

LONG POND, Pa. -- Chris Buescher has spent 2016 living a season to forget.What was there to remember? That scary flip at Talladega amid several hard wrecks in restrictor-plate events? He spent the first 20 weeks with no top-10 finishes while driving cars that obviously needed work; he had failed to qualify in the top 20 all year.Through it all, Buescher persevered, in many ways with performances that justified his being under the radar, except when his car went airborne at Talladega.Funny thing is, what was under the radar allowed Buescher to have a day to remember Monday in the Pennsylvania 400 to earn his first career Sprint Cup win.Buescher, 22, had to wait 80 minutes after NASCAR declared a red flag for fog Monday afternoon at Pocono Raceway. With threats of severe weather and no lifting of the fog, NASCAR decided to end the race with just over 21 laps remaining.Buescher was one of two drivers -- third-place Regan Smith was the other -- who had not yet made a final pit stop when the fog forced NASCAR to throw the caution on Lap 132 and then the red flag just before the drivers came to the line to complete Lap 139.Everyone else had to pit for fuel or assumed the race would go longer. They could see rain a little further out but couldnt predict the under-the-radar fog.So a quiet driver ended up in a quiet Victory Lane in a garage since NASCAR couldnt use the real Victory Lane because of the threat of lightning. It was a somewhat appropriate venue for a feel-good story for a driver who seems to savor getting behind the wheel and competing, whether hes running for 20th or for the lead.This is going to stir up our whole year. ... Its not going to [sink in] for a while, Buescher said of the win, which came in his 27th career Sprint Cup start. It doesnt even feel real right now. Its so quiet in here. Were not even in the real Victory Lane. Were having to seek shelter. It was a pretty wild event.The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook had Buescher at 1,000-to-1 to win the race. He is the first rookie to win a Cup race since Joey Logano did it in 2009.I hope somebody bet on us and made out really well, Buescher said. It would be awesome for them. We faced pretty steep odds coming into this one. ... You take advantage of every situation thats presented to you, and thats what we did today.The win could put Buescher in the Chase for the Sprint Cup, as he sits six points behind 30th-place David Ragan in the Sprint Cup standings. A driver has to be in the top 30 to qualify for the Chase via a race victory. Ragan posted the first Front Row Motorsports victory at Talladega Superspeedway in May 2013, and now Buescher has the second.ddddddddddddere in the hunt, Buescher said. We can definitely handle this now. We can get into this Chase now. Well go do it the same way weve been doing. ... Weve been heading in the right direction.While Buescher pulled off the upset, many in the garage will see it as a just victory in the racing world. Buescher is well-respected not only for winning the 2015 Xfinity Series title but also because he took the chance to get Sprint Cup experience knowing he would drive for an underfunded, underdog team that likely would produce few top-10s, let alone victories.The key [for young drivers] is to make the most of your opportunities, said second-place finisher Brad Keselowski. Chris is a master of that. He makes the most out of each and every opportunity.Thats going to take him a long ways in his career.Buescher had to take something of a sidestep in his career this year. After winning the Xfinity Series title for Roush Fenway Racing in 2015, Buescher was set to defend that title this year when Roush did a deal with Front Row Motorsports to loan Buescher -- and crew chief Bob Osborne -- to Front Row for 2016.Buescher won on a day when two of the youngest stars of the Sprint Cup Series -- Austin Dillon and Kyle Larson -- battled side by side for the lead and appeared to have the best pit strategy early in the race.Congratulations to [Buescher], said Dillon, who has raced Buescher in the Xfinity Series. Its a little frustrating for all of us who were up there. It will be a blessing for him. Hes a great guy. He deserves anything that hes got coming to him.I just wish it was us. Given the situation, it was a heartbreaker.Larson and Dillon, both in their third year of Sprint Cup racing, are still looking for a first career win. The same is true for rookie Chase Elliott, who has had the best points season of any rookie.After the race was red-flagged, Elliott went over to Buescher.I stopped by and told him I was pulling for him, Elliott said just before the race was ruled official. It would be really cool. Hes a good racer. Hes deserving of a good opportunity and I think it would be neat to see him get a win.Buescher obviously thought it was neat. It was a great victory for him and Osborne, a former crew chief for Carl Edwards.Hes a good kid and an Xfinity champion, said three-time Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart during the NBCSN telecast. It doesnt matter how you get your first win, you just want to get your first win. ' ' '
