Stanford's Tara VanDerveer on retirement: 'Just felt I'm ready'


For Tara VanDerveer, it all came together after a season in which she didn't necessarily know it would be her last but checked plenty of boxes if it was going to be, especially with the diminishment of the Pac-12. But even with the Pac-12's disintegration and Stanford poised to move to the ACC, she emphasized that didn't play a role in her decision to step away. (ESPN.com)
