CARSON, Calif. — Sonoma State got on the board in the first inning when Devin Alexander hit a sacrifice fly to center field that scored Daniel Caresio, but the Seawolves were only able to add one more run in the eighth inning in Sunday's 4-2 defeat to Cal State Dominguez Hills. The Seawolves see their CCAA record drop to 14-18 and 20-21 overall. The Toros record improves to 17-15 in conference and 23-19 overall.

The Seawolves didn't go down without a fight as Alex Crosby singled to lead off the eighth and later scored on a wild pitch, but the Seawolves weren't able to get any closer after the Crosby run.
