TURLOCK -- Cal State Monterey Bay converted all six of its free throw attempts in the final 34 seconds to pull out a 78-74 victory over Cal State Stanislaus Saturday night at Fitzpatrick Arena.
It was the Otters' (8-11, 4-8 California Collegiate Athletic Association) first win over the Warriors (7-9, 4-8 CCAA) in three seasons. The Warriors, who fell to 2-6 at home this season, had beaten the Otters four straight times.
Marcus Walters led Stanislaus with 16 points and six rebounds. Nick Hodge contributed 12 points and seven boards while Wes Bartole added 10 points for the Warriors
Monterey did the bulk of its damage at the free-throw line, converting 20 of its 27 attempts in a game that featured 11 ties.
While the Otters were able to make the most of their opportunities down the stretch, the Warriors couldn't cash in, missing three open 3-pointers and two layups in the final minute and a half.
Alex Fertig's 3-pointer with just over three minutes remaining put the Otters ahead to stay.
Fertig finished with game-high 20 points while Kevin Loustale had 11 points and 15 rebounds.

• RECORD DAY FOR STANISLAUS' GHABBOUR, at Nampa, Idaho — Marina Ghabbour set a school record in the mile run to highlight the Warriors' day on Saturday at the Jacksons Indoor Invitational hosted by Boise State.
