SAN BERNARDINO (January 26, 2018) — For the second straight game CSUSB flexed its muscles on the offensive end, routing host Cal State Monterey Bay 80-55 in CCAA play Friday night.
You'd have to go back to the last century …
CSUSB proved it scoring mettle again, scoring 80 points in consecutive regulation games for the first time in 24 seasons (last Saturday's 89-71 win over Cal State Dominguez Hills). CSUSB last scored consecutive 80-point games during the 2014-15 season, but one included an OT loss to Cal Poly Pomona.
Five in double figures

Aleayah Kindred-Hendrix led with 13 points, followed by
Tehya Burroughs with 12,

Kaitlyn Parks with 10 apiece.
Large margin
The 25-point victory matched CSUSB's largest margin of victory this year (St. Martin's 69-44, Nov. 11).
Hitting 50 percent
CSUSB also matched its best shooting game of the season. The Coyotes were 34 of 68 from the field, thanks to a 60-percent effort in the second half. CSUSB last shot 50 percent in its 80-65 win over Chico State on Dec. 3.
