March 20, 2002

LA MIRADA, Calif.--The Toros could not come back from a six-run deficit early as the team dropped a 10-9 baseball decision against Biola University in La Mirada today.

Down 10-6 going into the ninth inning, CSUDH plated three runs to make it interesting highlighted by a Tony Marquez two-run double but that was as close as they would get.

Damien Lopez and Joe Gevas each homered in the game for the Toros. Lopez' was a 2-run shot in the second while Gevas' was a solo bomb. RHP Ramon Mata suffered the loss allowing six runs.

CSUDH, now 16-12-1, will play their first game at their new temporary park on Friday at LA Southwest College hosting San Francisco State for a four-game series. First pitch is set for 2:30 p.m.
