Fresno State (3-8, 0-5 MPSF) was led offensively by senior Anjelica Fuccillo, sophomore Lindsay Hobson and junior captain Caroline Dineen-Carlson, who each scored a goal, and Ryleigh Bone notched her second assist of the season.
The Bulldogs won the draw control battle 12-9 as junior Kyleigh Westgarth grabbed a game-high four and freshman Sarah Bloise added three. Sophomore Nicole Ortlieb, senior captain Sophia Aragon and sophomore Logan Eisinger each grabbed three ground balls.
