SAN FRANCISCO --- The 2013 campaign may be winding down for the SF State Gators, but that won't stop them from trying to finish the season on a positive note. SF State (20-28, 12-20 CCAA) will host Cal State East Bay (14-32, 9-23 CCAA) in its final California Collegiate Athletic Association four-game series with doubleheaders on Friday and Saturday. Friday's action will begin at 1 p.m. and Saturday, which will also be San Francisco Little League Day and Senior Day, starts at 12 p.m., with a ceremony honoring both teams seniors prior to the first pitch.

The Gators come off a successful 3-1 series against Cal State San Bernardino, outscoring the Coyotes 17-to-8. Ali Garcia (3-0) went 2-0 on the weekend, recording a 1.17 ERA, surrendering three runs (two earned) while only walking one batter. Garcia started the weekend, pitching five innings of relief in the Gators' 5-4 come-from-behind win over the Coyotes on Friday afternoon.  She gave up just two hits and one unearned en route to the win. On Saturday, she pitched a complete game win, giving up eight hits and two runs, while wakling two, to hold a 2.23 ERA on the season.

Also finding success in the circle, Marisa Ibarra (14-11) threw her 100th strikeout of the season against the Coyotes, putting her tally to 102 total knockouts. Ibarra also boasts a 1.78 ERA, putting her in third on the CCAA leader board for pitchers.

Freshman Gabby Reta and junior Kylie Grabowski round out the top four batters, averaging .267 and .263, respectively, at the plate. Grabowski holds a team-high 20 RBIs as well.
