BOX SCORE

HAYWARD, Calif. -- The Cal State Monterey Bay water polo team got another shot at Cal State East Bay on Saturday after a heartbreaking loss to the Pioneers two weeks ago.

The Otters fell behind early netting two goals to the Pioneers four in the first quarter. After two goals from either team in the second quarter the hosts took a 6-4 lead into halftime.

CSUMB stumbled out of the intermission by scoring once in the third quarter to fall behind 10-5. However, the Otters made a push at a comeback in the fourth quarter, outscoring EB 4-1 in the final eighth minutes. But the comeback would fall short as time expired with CSUMB two goals behind, 9-11.
