THOUGHTS FROM HEAD COACH STEF EWING
"We battled a very good East Bay team through four hard-fought games to take the series. We played well in all facets of the game. The pitchers did a great job keeping their hitters off balance, and the defense continues to shine. Offensively, we showed steady improvement and created a lot of opportunities." 

UP NEXT
The Cougars return home next week for a four-game series against Chico State beginning on Friday, March 3 at noon.
