SAN FRANCISCO --- Coming off a successful 3-1 series over No. 5-ranked Cal State Dominguez Hills, the SF State Gators will take a break from the California Collegiate Athletic Association but don't want to miss the opportunity to build on their momentum. The Gators will take on two non-conference opponents, hoping to keep their winning ways going. Wednesday, SF State heads to Notre Dame de Namur for a doubleheader and hosts Dominican University of California on Sunday for another doubleheader, each beginning at 1 p.m.
