Warriors let one get away, lose heartbreaker in OT

SEASIDE — This would be one of those games the Warriors let it get away. Up by as many as 10 points against a struggling team in Cal State Monterey Bay, Cal State Stanislaus dropped an overtime decision, 63-59, Friday night inside The Kelp Bed.

Briana Cotton scored 20 points, two points shy of a career high, but a final push by the Cal State Monterey Bay Otters snapped Stanislaus's little win-streak at two. The Warriors dropped to 5-10 overall and 3-8 in the California Collegiate Athletic Association before heading over to Cal State East Bay Saturday.

Cal State Monterey Bay scored six of the final eight points and held the Warriors without a field goal in the final 2-plus minutes of regulation to force overtime. The Otters snapped a four-game skid to improve to 4-12, 2-9 in CCAA play. CSUMB had won just one of the previous 10 games heading into the weekend.

The Warriors led by as many as 10 points early in the second half, but that slowly went away behind a career night by Otter freshman Emily Keenan. A 17-3 Otter run erased that Stanislaus lead, capped by a Keenan three-pointer at 8:59 to give CSUMB a four-point lead. Keenan wasn't done there as she went on to score 20 points with four three-pointers. She also had 10 rebounds for another career high and her first double-double.

In the extra period, the Warriors managed just one bucket on 13 tries en route to a 30 percent shooting night. Jasmine Washington made the only basket for the Warriors in overtime at 2:10 left to play. Washington finished the night with 10 points to go with three blocks and two steals. Alysa Valentine had 11 points and two steals.

Cotton ended the night 7 for 19 from the field and nailed three three-pointers on 10 attempts. The senior also made three of three free throws to run her streak to 17 consecutive free throws made. Cotton is now 26-for-28 from the foul line in 11 conference games.

Cal State Monterey Bay out-rebounded the Warriors, 55-38, for the night. Three CSUMB players had 10 rebounds apiece.
