 | Kaley Dodson picked just the right time to score her first two goals of Sunday's contest.
Dodson scored twice in the final 2:32 of play to help give the top-ranked Stanford women's water polo team an 8-5 victory over UCLA in the championship game of the Stanford Invitational.
The Bruins held a 4-3 advantage at halftime but were then shut down, scoring once in the second half.
UCLA drew within 6-5 with just over six minutes remaining.
Kate Baldoni made three of her six saves in the final quarter, keeping the Bruins from tying it.
Dodson scored her first goal with 2:32 remaining and gave the Cardinal breathing room with 1:24 left with her second goal.
