TURLOCK -- Christin Gowan netted a career-high with 21 points, but Cal State Monterey Bay got 25 points from the free throw line en route to a 64-52 win over Cal State Stanislaus at Warrior Arena Saturday night.

Gowan, who nailed three consecutive long three-pointers to start the game, finished with 21 points on 5 of 8 shooting. She was 4 for 5 from behind the arch and also converted on 7 of 10 free throws for the career night.

The Warriors ended a two-game winning streak and dropped to 5-12 overall and 4-9 in the California Collegiate Athletic Association.

Veronica Williams led the Otters with 19 points and Holly Holcome added 14 points off the bench as CSUMB improved to 12-5 overall and 8-5 in the CCAA.

Monterey Bay went to the line often, attempting 37 free throws from 31 Warrior fouls. CSUMB shot 67.6 percent from the charity stripe (25-for-37). On the flip side, the Warriors went 14-for-20 from the line, most of them coming late in the second half.

With Katie Busi playing hurt with a right knee hyper-extension, the Warriors looked to Gowan for offense and the junior guard responded early hitting her first three three-point tries from well beyond the three-point arch. Busi was limited to 10 total minutes of play before fouling out.

Aside from Gowan, the other CSUS starters shot a combined 3-for-24 from the floor. Jeanette Rowe scored seven points off the bench and Alishea Kelly chipped in six.
