TURLOCK, Calif. -
Jolene Armendariz cemented herself in the San Francisco State record books Saturday afternoon as the women's basketball team down Stanislaus State 86-75. Her seven three's broke a single records and her 63 threes on the season broke a single season record.
- The win snaps an 11-game losing streak. The Gators improve to 8-18 on the season and to 4-16 in the CCAA. The Warriors fall to 6-20 and 2-18 in the conference.
- Armendariz matched her career-high with 28 points. Cheyenne Mckinnie had a career-high 18 points after setting a career high a game ago.
- The Gators had one of their best shooting performances of the season and shot 44.3 percent from the field and 45.5 percent from three.
- SF State had a season-high 22 free throws made.
- Stanislaus' Makayla Rose led all players with 29 points.
The Gator's offense fired on all cylinders against Stanislaus. Up 9-7 after the first five minutes of play, SF State outscored Stanislaus 14 to five to close out the first quarter. SF State took advantage of opportunities early line at the free throw line and went 8-for-10 at the charity strip. The offense continued to churn in the second quarter as the Gators shot a game best 55.6 percent from the field. SF State led by as much as 24 as the Gators took a 50-31 lead into the locker room.
SF State maintained a double-digit lead heading into the final frame. With 9:18 remaining, Armendariz made her seventh three-point basket to put the Gators up 68-53. Stanislaus would come within single digits of the lead down the line, but the Gators would get enough done at the free throw line to reclaim the double-digit lead.
SF State will return home to play its final home contests of the season. They play their first of two games February 23th at 5:30 p.m. against Cal State Dominguez Hills. The broadcast will be available on the
