SAN BERNARDINO (Jan. 18, 2017) — CSUSB took control right from the opening tipoff and cruised to its widest margin of victory in five seasons in its 72-38 victory over San Francisco State in CCAA basketball Wednesday night.
 
Sabrea Coleman led the way with a game-high 20 points, and Casie Johnson (15) and Mya Johnson (12) helped out as CSUSB stretched its winning streak to four games and improved to 9-4 overall and 6-3 CCAA.
 
The 34-point margin of victory is CSUSB's best since Feb. 10, 2012, when it defeated Stanislaus State 75-42.
 
But what should make coach Susan Crebbin even happier is the play of her defense. The 38- points allowed is the best defensive effort since the 2010-11 season.
 
CSUSB led from the beginning, thanks to a 7-0 spurt. The Coyotes extended the lead to 21-6 through the first period, and led 30-14 at halftime.
 
For good measure CSUSB outscored the Gators 29-9 in the third and led by 39 with 6:38 remaining in the game.
 
Coleman was 8-of-17 shooting with a season-best seven steals. Casie Johnson was 6 of 10 with six rebounds, and Mya Johnson earned her seventh double-double in CSUSB's 13 games with a game-high 12 rebounds.
 
Freshman Taylor Goldsberry scored a season-best eight points with seven rebounds, and Courtney Coleman added seven with two 3-pointers.
 
SFSU (2-15, 0-10) was led by Kaitlin DaDalt with 13.
 
CSUSB returns to Coussoulis Arena on Saturday night when it plays host to Cal State San Marcos.
