Game 1: Coyotes 8, Cal State Stanislaus 2

Four straight hits, capped by Brian Lockey's two-run double, keyed a six-run fifth inning as the Coyotes rolled to victory.

Then in the eighth Aaron Beckley and Kevin Meriwether supplied RBI for the final two Coyotes' runs.

Game 2: Cal State Stanislaus 8, Coyotes 6

A two-run double by Beckley in the fourth cut CSUS's lead to 4-3 and the Coyotes rallied with two runs in the seventh and it appeared a sweep was a distinct possibility.
