THOUGHTS FROM CSUSM HEAD COACH RON PULVERS
"We generated a lot of real quality looks and had enough to win the game today. East Bay had a real dangerous moment late in the game that could've been a problem for us, but we stayed aggressive. It was one of our better performances of the year in terms of ball movement, and I feel really good about what the team produced today."
 
UP NEXT
CSUSM will return to The Cage on Friday as it faces Cal State San Bernardino in its CCAA home opener at 3 p.m.
