It was a good day for the local schools as both Cal Poly Pomona and Cal State San Bernardino swept men’s-women’s basketball doubleheaders up North and three of the four games were thrillers.

The lone blowout was on the men’s side where the Coyotes turned in a convincing 83-59 victory. The game was tied at 35 at the half but the Coyotes started the second with one of their patented runs and then coasted. Devon Davis had a career-high 20 to lead the blowout.

Meanwhile the Cal Poly men snapped a three-game losing, fending off San Fransisco State 63-60. A loss and the Broncos were in very big trouble. It’s one they badly need. Coach Greg Kamansky dressed eight players. One fouled out and four finished with four fouls each. Overtime would not have been good.

On the women’s side the Coyotes prevailed 59-50, as did the Broncos 68-66 in overtime.

The teams will swap opponents ofr play on Saturday.
