"This was a great CCAA road victory for us tonight," CSUSB head coach Kim Cherniss said. "I was proud of the team being prepared after just one practice before tonight's match. Moira, Sascha, and Alexis were really efficient offensively tonight. Defensively, Asia Clarke was relentless in the middle back, digging everything. Also Asia and Leilia To'amalatai were really tough at the service line tonight."
The win began a busy week for the Coyotes, who head back home for the weekend beginning with CSU Dominguez Hills at 7 pm on Friday. Live links are on CSUSBathletics.com.
