ARCATA – Senior Priscilla Curiel clubbed a three-run home run and senior LHP Cassidy Lee shutdown the Humboldt State bats as the visiting Coyotes earned an 11-2 win in six innings in a game that was shortened due to the eight-run rule.

CSUSB improved to 32-22 overall and now will await word if it will make the NCAA Tournament field. The Coyotes did not make the CCAA Tourney field that begins next week, but remain in contention for a regional berth. CSUSB was ranked sixth in this week's poll.

An RBI-double by Alex Mitchell keyed a two-run second inning and the Coyotes pushed their lead to 3-0 in the second on Felicia Cervantes' single.

But the Coyotes' offense got going in the fifth and sixth inning as CSUSB scored four runs in each inning.

In the fifth, Courtney Wilhelms' two-out, two-run single through the left side was the key hit, and Curiel ripped a three-run homer in the sixth.

Lee threw a complete game, giving up five hits and allowing two runs – one earned. She struck out two and walked two.

Jamie Roland, Jacquelyn Holtzclaw, Cervantes and Wilhelms each had two hits as the Coyotes out-hit the Lumberjacks, 12-5.
