No. 12 Yotes Earn 15th Win of Season at Cal State LA

LOS ANGELES, Calif. - The CSUSB men's basketball team defeated Cal State LA on Thursday night, earning their 15th win of the season. The Yotes have maintained first place for the entire season thus far, improving to 15-2 overall with a 10-1 record in CCAA play.

Redshirt junior Robby Robinson led the Yotes' offense against the Golden Eagles, recording his third double-double of the season with a team-leading 16 points and 13 rebounds. Ironically, Robinson's two double-doubles entering Thursday had come in back-to-back games against Cal State San Marcos and Cal State LA on January 5^th and 7^th. If history repeats itself, Robinson is set for a good game against the Cougars this Saturday.

Four other Yotes reached double digit points in the game, including Elijah Hardy with 14, Eddie Davis with 13, Brandon Knapper with 11, and Darius Mickens with 10. Knapper continued his impressive scoring streak, reaching double digit points for the 18^th consecutive game dating back to last season.

Hardy provided his most productive game of the 2022-23 campaign on Thursday night, recording a season-high 14 points while also tying season-highs with four treys and five rebounds.

Despite having their third-worst field goal percentage as a team this season at 39 percent, CSUSB controlled the game in many other aspects. They once again dominated on the glass with their fourth-highest rebound total of the season, gathering 51 to the Golden Eagles' 35 to improve their nation-leading +15.1 rebound margin. The Yotes also collected 11 second chance points and 32 points off the bench, allowing them to maintain a steady double-digit lead for nearly the entire second half.

Up Next
The Yotes will travel down to San Marcos on Saturday for their second matchup against the Cougars this season. CSUSB took the first game between the two squads earlier this month, defeating CSUSM 74-65 in The Den. In addition, CSUSB has taken seven of the last eight matchups against the Cougars, while remaining undefeated all-time at home.
