BAKERSFIELD, Calif.--Kristen Walsh (Lakewood/Mayfair HS) tallied her third goal of the season to lead Cal State Dominguez Hills to its third-consecutive win with a 1-0 hard-fought decision over Cal State Bakersfield in California Collegiate Athletic Association action Wednesday night.

The win improved the No. 17 Toros to 14-3-1 and 11-1-1 in CCAA play. CSUDH completes the regular season schedule without a loss on the road finishing 6-0-1 away from Toro Field. CSUB meanwhile drops to 4-12-2 and 3-9-1 in league play.

After a scoreless first half, Walsh accepted a perfectly-placed low cross inside the penalty box from Candace Hearn (Whittier/Whittier HS) and tapped her shot to the near post past CSUB goalie Mandy Cutshall seven minutes into the second period at 52:33.

That was all the Toro defense would need as they stifled several Roadrunner chances in the second half.

It was an evenly played match with Cal State Dominguez Hills outshooting CSUB, 19-14.

CSUDH goalie Alba Garcia (Chino/Don Lugo HS) earned the win making six saves in goal while notching her fifth shutout of the year.
