POMONA – Cal State Dominguez Hills (14-11, 9-10) limited the Broncos to only four first-half baskets on its way to a 37-15 halftime lead, then never looked back as the Toros defeated Cal Poly Pomona, 67-50, in a CCAA women's basketball game in Pomona Wednesday night. The Toros never led by less than 13 points in the second half.

Senior Tameka Blue had a tremendous game for the Toros, pouring in a game-high 22 points to go along with six assists, four rebounds and three steals. Every time the Broncos tried to make a second-half run, it seemed as though Blue was the one to put an end to it – either by a big basket or a nice pass.
