SAN BERNARDINO – D'Mauria Jones scored 21 points and Colten Kresl had 20 but the Cal State Dominguez Hills men's basketball team ran out of time to erase a 15-point deficit as third-ranked Cal State San Bernardino escaped with a 74-71 result at Coussoulis Arena Saturday evening.
 
Trailing by 15 with 6:09 remaining in the second half, Dominguez Hills ignited an 18-4 rally the rest of the way. The Toros got to within two when Jordan Hilstock hit a jumper with 44 seconds left. After the Yotes got a free throw to make it the 74-71 score, the Toros got the final possession. Jones pushed in for a layup but missed, DJ Guest got the rebound to try attempt the put-back but missed at the buzzer.
