 How It Happened

The Otters climbed to an 11-4 advantage in the first five minutes, capped off by a 7-0 run and a three-pointer by Michael Mora. Alex Gilat's deep triple off a dish from CJ Bellamy cut it to 18-11 with just over 10 minutes left. Burrell's driving and-one layup narrowed the deficit to single digits with 33 seconds left in the first, part of a 7-0 SF State run to end the half as the Otters went into the break up 27-20.

The Gators came out of the break with a 6-0 run, highlighted by an alley-oop from Uniacke off a pass from Flowers, bringing the hosts to within one. Bakke knocked down back-to-back jumpers around the 15-minute mark, and Burrell's layup the next possession off another assist from Flowers gave SF State its first lead of the day at 33-31, part of an 18-4 run going back to the first half. CSUMB regained the advantage with a 17-2 run, capped off by Javon Johnson's three-pointer, as the visitors now led 48-35. Burrell knocked down his first triple of the game with 2:03 left, but the Otters were able to close it out with five three throws and walk away with the 60-45 victory.
