Dorsey trailed Oakland Skyline by one point and the Dons had the ball in their half of the court with 10 seconds to play. But they fumbled the ball back to Skyline with four seconds left and wound up losing, 70-67, in the Johnnie Cochran Classic today at Cal State Dominguez.

Despite the setback, Coach Kevin Gibson is eager to resume Coliseum League play, beginning Friday at Locke.

‘I believe we’re ready,’ said Gibson when asked if the Dons can chase down Fremont. ‘We just have some small things to clean up. We still turn it over too much, and we’re still not totally sold on playing tough defense. But I rhink league wiil bring that out.’
