SAN FRANCISCO - The Cal Poly Pomona women's basketball team led at halftime but wrapped up its 2021-22 season by falling to San Francisco State University, 71-64, in a California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) contest inside The Swamp on Saturday afternoon.

Coming off back-to-back wins for the first time this season and having not trailed during its weekend home sweep, CPP finished at 8-15 overall and 7-12 in the CCAA. San Francisco State went 10-15 overall and 8-13 in league play. Both squads had already been eliminated from CCAA Tournament contention heading into this final week, and wound up ninth and eighth in the standings, respectively.

Saturday marked the collegiate finales for Cal Poly Pomona's outstanding senior trio of Rebecca Islas, Monica Todd and Jayda Villareal. Islas finished with 543 points, 302 rebounds and 78 assists for her two on-the-court seasons at CPP, starting 36 of 52 games played. Todd wound up with 631 points, 356 boards and 146 steals over her three seasons in the green and gold, with 46 starts among 57 appearances. Villareal, a four-year Bronco, began 44 of 74 games and produced 528 points, 153 rebounds, 104 made three-pointers, 92 assists and 86 steals. She is the 10th in program history with 100 triples.

An early Villareal three-pointer gave CPP its first lead of the day at 4-3, with Breanne Ha assisting on the shot and then throwing in her own triple on the following Bronco possession to go up 7-3. Ha then made it three hits from beyond the arc in three trips for the visitors for 10-5.

Ha's personal run of 8-0 left the score at 12-7 with 5:50 to go, but CPP would not find another tally over the remainder of the first period.

Now trailing 13-12 after a quarter, the Broncos began the second with another Villareal triple to snap their scoreless stretch at 6:19 and regain a 15-13 lead. Later down again, 21-18, CPP got two free throws and a layup from Islas around a Chynna Cochran bucket to go back ahead. The run grew to 8-0 through Todd, the reigning CCAA Player of the Week, and the guests still clung to a narrow 27-25 advantage a the half.

The Gators caught the Broncos at 29-29 on a Muirae Gomez bucket to force a timeout, and went ahead by two through a Gomez-assisted Ashley Hart layup on their next possession. After Todd's basket tied the game at 31-31, SF State ran off the next 10 points to grab a 41-31 advantage past the midway point of the third period. The final four of those points came from Gomez, with a Todd free throw finally ending a scoreless stretch for the visitors of 4:12.

San Francisco State held a 15-point advantage of 52-37 heading into the fourth, and extended it further to as many as 17 with just over nine minutes to go in the game. Cal Poly Pomona used an 11-0 run from there to whittle that deficit down to six, 56-50, but could close no further. That stretch ended with successive three-pointers by Ayah League, with a steal in between from the junior out of Bellflower.

League wound up with a season- and team-high 12 points, all coming over the final 8:41. She matched her single-game career best of three triples, on four attempts. Villareal (11) and Cochran (10) joined her in double figures, with Villareal also knocking down a trio of three-pointers while adding seven rebounds, three steals and two assists.

Todd collected eight points, seven boards, one assist, one block, and a game-high five steals. Islas had five points, two rebounds and a block.

Gomez led all players with 24 points on 11-of-16 shooting from the field, and added nine rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block. Hart posted a double-double of 15 points and 10 boards, to go along with four assists. Mya Blake (11) and Alexsandra Alvarado (10) also both scored in double digits. Taimane Lesa-Hardee registered game highs of 11 rebounds and five assists.
