Arizona State’s Rob Edwards proves too much for Stanford

TEMPE, Ariz. — Rob Edwards didn’t need to take many shots to have an efficient performance for Arizona State.

The junior guard scored 16 points on 6-for-8 shooting and added five rebounds and four assists to help the Sun Devils to an 80-62 win over Stanford Wednesday night.

Backcourt mate Remy Martin added 16 points, and the Sun Devils (18-8, 9-5 Pac-12) earned a key conference win with only one of their final four regular-season games left at home. They have alternated wins and losses in their past seven games.

“Just trying to get confidence for March and tournament time,” Edwards said. “Just trying to pick it up and help everybody else so that we can get ready and win games. That’s what we’ve got to do.
