THOUGHTS FROM CSUSM HEAD COACH ANDREA LEONARD
"I am incredibly happy with a road win tonight against an athletic Dominguez Hills team. We had several players step up tonight with big play-making ability. Our middle Kassy Doering had another strong night along with Micah Hébert and Emily Vander Weide on the outside. We are continuing to progress towards aggressive play on every point and increase our kills. We look forward to playing No. 1 CSUSB on Friday. To be the best, you have to play the best." 

UP NEXT
The Cougars welcome top-ranked Cal State San Bernardino on Friday at 7 p.m.
