HSU women make it six straight wins

Alexia Thrower continued to lead the way as the Humboldt State women won their sixth straight game in basketball on Thursday night to improve to 7-1.

Thrower scored a game-high 25 points in a 73-70 win at Cal Poly Pomona, while teammate Gabrielle Carbajal added 14 points.

The win also lifts the Jacks to 3-0 in conference play.

Humboldt State held Cal Poly Pomona to just 37 percent shooting from the field, including just 15 percent from 3-point range.

“It’s tough to win in this conference and even more so on the road,” HSU head coach Michelle Bento-Jackson said. “I thought the team did a great job of staying focused and handling some difficult situations.”

The Jacks will play at Cal State Monterey Bay on Saturday night.
