Scaring up SRC support ASI-hosted Halloween run draws over 60 runners to costumed 5k race

ALEXANDER DOMINGUEZ Daily Titan Ghosts and ghouls raced superheroes and zombies around campus Saturday in the name of fitness and charity. The Halloween-themed race saw Cal State Fullerton students and alumni, along with local community members, dressed in costume for the annual Costume Dash Fun Run which benefits the Student Recreation Center (SRC). The event, put on by Associated Students, Inc. (ASI), took place in front of the SRC from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and included a DJ, live band and food, in addition to the 5K run. Over 60 people in costumes varying from superheroes, to children’s characters, to horror themes participated. “I think it’s been really successful,” said Kris Cuasay, a sophomore kinesiology major who volunteered at the event. “It looks like they’re having a lot of fun.” The course took the runners through and around the CSUF campus.

To keep up with a growing campus, Cal State Fullerton has begun construction on a third tower in the Central Plant. The tower will improve capabilities of cooling systems and increase the speed at which buildings can be cooled down, according to CSUF officials. Funding for the $2 million project will come from CSUF’s utilities budget. The tower is expected to be completed by the 2015 spring semester. Two existing towers at the Central Plant store hot or cold water to be used by the the $20 million Trigeneration Plant, known as TriGen, that was built in 2010. The campus creates about half the energy it uses—using solar panels and a 4.4 megawatt natural gas powered turbine. TriGen gets its name from the three components it uses: electricity, chilled water and hot water. The TriGen plant cools water with two environmentally friendly 1,310 ton absorption chillers, which operate like a massive version of a car’s radiator. The chillers use water as a refrigerant, eliminating the need for chemicals that can deplete the ozone layer. TriGen operates cleaner than the coal-burning plant that preceded it. Building the third tower for TriGen also involves manufacturing controls, piping and valves. SEE TOWER 2

Cooking class caters to vegetarians Gastronome and Health Center join together in celebration of Vegetarian Awareness Month

KRISTINA HILLIARD Daily Titan An aroma of spices filled Pine Residence Hall Room 140 Wednesday as students learned how to prepare healthy vegetarian and vegan dishes. Cal State Fullerton’s Health Center recently wrapped up its first vegetarian cooking class in honor of Vegetarian Awareness Month. The Health Center partnered with the Gastronome to deliver different food options to students with different food preferences, as well as educate students on healthier choices. The motivation for the class came from the success of a previous cooking class held in the spring semester, which had the same goal of giving students better food options. “A lot of students had questions about it and they were so thrilled that we had this provided for them, so we wanted to provide it again. So this is Vegetarian Awareness Month, so we wanted

Gastronome’s sous chefs. “I think its just good skills for the future, so you know when you grow up how to cook for yourself and make yourself your own food and be healthy at the same time. I had a blast and it was really good food,” said Nick Mantilla, third year health science

major. “It was really helpful to know good substitutes (to meat).” Vegetarians and meat-lovers alike came to watch the demonstration and learn about healthier options. Jennifer Fong, a 21-yearold health science major and vegetarian of six years, also

came to enjoy the class. “America’s meat industry is a little weird, I don’t really support that and its just a healthier lifestyle,” Fong said. “I was really excited when there was a cooking class that was specifically about vegetarian food because I feel like you don’t really see that a lot

of the time or anything that’s specifically geared towards vegetarians and it can be hard to eat anywhere when there aren’t that many options besides salads to eat.” Darany Hoang, a health educator at the Student Health and Counseling Center, was also responsible for coordinating the event. For Hoang, an event like this was very important to put on for the students. It helped teach students that the key factors to a healthy lifestyle include nutrition and balanced food intake. “We contacted the Gastronome and we partnered with them. This is our second cooking class and based on the month, since October is Vegetarian Awareness Month, we decided to go with a vegetarian meal,” Hoang said. In addition to the healthy turnout at the vegetarian cooking class, the Student Health and Counseling Center is hoping for another big turnout at their next event for students, which will be “Nightmare on Phun Street,” an alcohol awareness event to teach students to make better and smarter choices using alcohol.

ASI hosts Fullerton Mayor Mayor visits campus for meetand-greet, addresses issues of water, CollegeTown

CESAR GAMBOA Daily Titan Fullerton Mayor Doug Chaffee visited Cal State Fullerton to address the issues and concerns of students during a meet and greet Thursday. Chaffee, elected in June 2012 and currently running for reelection, began by discussing the homeless population in Fullerton. A shelter for Fullerton-area homeless people will hopefully be completed in Anaheim in approximately a year, he said. “That’s been a county goal for a long time,” Chaffee said. “My goal is to end what we have, especially in the southwest end part of the town. You have panhandling, we have people sleeping in the doorways of businesses.”

The county hopes to create five year-round shelters, one in each supervisorial district, Chaffee said. The shelter could provide homeless people with drug rehabilitation, job training and mental health counseling programs along with amenities like showers and washing machines. The recent approval of body-worn cameras for Fullerton police was also addressed. The cameras, Chaffee said, are a win-win for both Fullerton residents and police alike. “I think, because of the recording of it, it will cut out some of the frivolous claims that our police have been getting,” Chaffee said. “The other side is police would be (more polite) because they know they’re being recorded, too.” Chaffee also addressed the city’s ongoing efforts to improve its roads. The

streets are in bad condition, but Chaffee said he hopes to continue construction meant to improve them. That reconstruction extends to more than just Fullerton’s roads. The magnitude 5.1 earthquake in late March left the city with major projects to address, Chaffee said. “We had, in the city, 18 waterline breaks as a result of that earthquake,” Chafee said. “We’re trying to fix our water lines, we’re an old city.” CSUF’s earthquake damage was addressed as well. Chaffee said he would like to help raise funds for reconstruction of the Pollak Library, which sustained $6 million in damage from the earthquake. The mayor addressed other possible changes involving CSUF during a discussion about the proposed CollegeTown. The

project is currently promoted by CSUF, Hope International University and the city of Fullerton, Chaffee said. “It is intended to not only encompass the campus, but areas around it,” he said. These plans have been met with controversy from Fullerton residents because the heavily-trafficked Nutwood Avenue would be closed permanently to create a pedestrian mall and at least 12,000 more dorm spaces. The benefits of CollegeTown, Chaffee said, could improve some of the drawbacks of being a commuter campus. “You can think of all the benefits of that—not being such a commuter school, actually living here—and it creates a college town,” he said. The project is not driven by CSUF but rather the city of Fullerton, an important

NEWS

fact to keep in mind, said Associated Students, Inc. President Harpreet Bath. “I’m going to be very interested to see how the city vote goes in terms of the closure of Nutwood and the beginning of this process,” Bath said. Bringing up issues like CollegeTown and ongoing construction in the community provided an important opportunity to meet with local legislators, said Armando Robles, a political science major. “(The meet and greet) was a really interesting experience,” Robles said. “I made it a point to come down. It was a great opportunity that not a lot of young people get, to see their local mayor.” Seven people are running for two spots on the Fullerton City Council. There will be voting booths in the Golleher Alumni House Tuesday, Nov. 4.

A search crew looking for missing University of Virginia student Hannah Graham found human remains Saturday in a rural area outside the city of Charlottesville, Virginia. The remains have not been confirmed to be Graham’s, but police have made a phone call to the 18-yearold’s parents to alert them that remains had been found. Graham was last seen on security video footage Sept. 13 outside a pub with Jesse Leroy Matthew Jr. a hospital worker, who was arrested in Galveston, Texas on charges of abduction with intent to defile. The discovery was called a “significant development” in a missing person investigation that has shifted into a death investigation. - CYNTHIA WASHICKO

Two arrests have been made in connection to the death of a Cal State Northridge student who was found dead in Palm Desert late Thursday night, according to the Desert Sun. Abdullah Abdullahtif Alkadi, a 23-year-old electrical engineering major, had been missing for nearly a month when his body was found dumped along Interstate 10. Alkadi was an international student from Saudi Arabia who had recently returned to Northridge to start the semester. The cause of his death has not been released. His cell phone was traced to Beaumont and then deactivated shortly thereafter, said Alkadi’s brother.

The project also allows CSUF to take advantage of incentives and credits available because of its energy conservation. By reducing its dependency on the state’s power grid, CSUF will

reduce its negative impact on the environment. The TriGen plant is a scaled down version of a “smart grid,” which allows for a computerized twoway connection between the plant and the buildings on the grid. These grids use

automation technology to monitor electricity use and adjust it when necessary. This means TriGen can, for example, tell that McCarthy Hall uses more energy than Mihaylo Hall simply because McCarthy is older and less efficient.

The bodies of at least 70 dead ISIS fighters were dropped off at a Syrian hospital over the past four days, suggesting that the terror group has taken a heavy hit, according to CNN. The hospital is located in the Syrian town of Tal Abyad on the Turkish border about 50 miles from Raqqa, where ISIS is headquartered. It is likely the bodies were dropped off by other members of the militant group, but it is unclear. The city of Kobani, which ISIS has been attempting to capture, has been repeatedly shelled by ISIS. Syrian forces and U.S. airstrikes have kept ISIS from taking the city. - SAMUEL MOUNTJOY

For the first time since 2003, the Fullerton Arboretum will not host its annual “Haunted Garden”. The event is normally staffed by volunteers, many of which come from the Friends of the Fullerton Arboretum group, which was not able to gather sufficient support this year.

Arboretum axes ‘Haunted Garden’ KLARISSA ALCALA For the Daily Titan The Fullerton Arboretum’s annual Halloween Haunted Garden will not take place this year due to a lack of volunteers and money. Since 2003, the event has allowed guests to tour the Arboretum after it was transformed into a night haunt, complete with werewolves,

zombies and vampires played by volunteers. The Arboretum is supported by Friends of the Fullerton Arboretum, a nonprofit group that organizes workshops, gift shop sales and fundraising events like the Haunted Garden. Arboretum Director Greg Dyment said the organization decided to re-evaluate their fall event this year and that events like the Haunted Garden have taken a lot of volunteer work in the past. “We need money to open

the gate every morning and water all the plants,” Dyment said. “We can’t afford to do things where we’re giving money away or losing money.” Friends of the Fullerton Arboretum provides the volunteers for many events, but the group wasn’t able to get enough volunteers to pull off the Haunted Garden in the manner they wanted, Dyment said. The Haunted Garden takes about 100 volunteers—some dressed as characters and

others giving tours, promoting the event, decorating and cleaning up, said Harriet Bouldin, development, membership and volunteer man-

provided by the volunteers, but those donations don’t cover every part of the event’s cost. Despite the cancellation

ager for the Arboretum. Many decorations and costumes are donated or

The event would have lost funds for the center, leading to its first cancellation since 2003

this year, Arboretum directors are looking at hosting another fall event next year,

Dyment said. The Arboretum has been around since the early 1970s and is home to an array of gardens and exhibits. The center relies on contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations to cover running costs and other expenses. Admission for the Arboretum is free, but a $5 donation is suggested. The center’s next event will be the annual Victorian Christmas event in December.

THEATER REVIEW:

FARRAGUT NORTH Grand Central Art Center’s play dazzles audiences with powerful political drama

ZACK JOHNSTON Daily Titan A successful career in politics only comes to those with the passion to reach great heights and the willpower to do whatever it takes to reach them. For those who are successful, the sheer adrenaline rush can be the most powerful drug. For those who crash and fall, it can be the strongest withdrawal. Farragut North, which opened Friday at Grand Central Art Center, is the story of Stephen Bellamy, a young and successful press secretary for a promising presidential campaign, and how, through his own folly and hubris, his world starts to fall apart. It is a testament to the complex nature of the political machine and how detrimental it can be when all the cogs don’t mesh. The political drama was written by Beau Willimon and directed by new Cal State Fullerton faculty director Christopher Shaw, who is responsible for the production’s exceeding levels of entertainment and realism. Kenney Selvey plays the ambitious, but foolish, Bellamy. Selvey effortlessly portrays the confidence and cunning of Bellamy. As Bellamy networks his way through the political world, Selvey exudes charm and laxity, making him a pleasure to watch. By contrast, as a series of

Farragut North opened Friday at Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana. The production offers realistic and dramatic performances from students in Cal State Fullerton’s Department of Theatre and Dance like Kenney Selvey and Katie Lee. The political drama runs through Nov. 1.

poor choices leads Bellamy to his downfall, Selvey clearly demonstrates Bellamy’s toxic characteristics. His ostentation and volatile behavior come to light as Bellamy’s grip on his job and his friends loosens. Vahan Oknayan plays the manager of the campaign, Paul Zara. Oknayan displays the experience and charisma that Zara’s long career in politics has given him. Zara’s friendly demeanor, as well as his fiery

intensity, are perfectly portrayed through Oknayan’s actions. The flirtatious and dedicated journalist, Ida Horowitz, is played by Autumn Rose Paramore. Horowitz and Bellamy have a mutualistic relationship of Bellamy offering news stories and Horowitz giving the campaign good news coverage. Paramore delivers an incomparable energy to Horowitz’s character. As Horowitz meddles her way

into getting the scoop, Paramore displays a strong sense of fortitude and insight while staying true to Horowitz’s scandalous disposition. The opposing candidate’s crafty campaign manager, Tom Duffy, is played by Arash Fakhrabadi. Duffy secretly meets with Bellamy to offer him a job, which starts the chain of events that drive the plot of the play. The moral ambiguity of Duffy’s character is

excellently portrayed by Fakhrabadi. Duffy’s unethical political maneuvers are matched by the sense of cleverness and manipulation in Fakhrabadi’s performance. The lighting design by Joanne Edelstein and sound by Varag Kamali contributed to the realism in the scenes as well as the transitions between them. Illusions of overhead airplanes and ominous television sets are created through light and sound; which help

set the mood while moving the actions along. Farragut North explores themes of how trust and loyalty play an important role in the world of politics. It is a story of passion and power, mixed in with corruption and betrayal. Above all, it is the story of a man’s self destruction and the path he chooses to make things right. Farragut North runs through Nov. 1 at Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana.

The Cal State Fullerton Big Band and Jazz Orchestra played with Grammy-winning musicians, Russell Ferrante and Bob Mintzer of the Yellowjackets, Friday night in the Meng Concert Hall.

Yellowjackets joined Big Band and Jazz Orchestra Students perform with Grammy Award-winning jazz artists in the Meng Concert Hall Friday

KYLE LOWE For the Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton Jazz Orchestra and Big Band performed with two famous jazz musicians and Grammy Award winners Friday. Pianist Russell Ferrante and saxophonist Bob Mintzer of the Yellowjackets took the stage in Meng Concert Hall. The Yellowjackets are a Grammy Award-winning jazz quartet formed in 1977. They released their self-titled debut album, Yellowjackets, in 1981. Ferrante is one of the band’s co-founders, while Mintzer joined in 1991. The band has been nominated for 17 Grammy Awards and has won two. With the Big Band and Orchestra behind them, Ferrante and Mintzer took the crowd through some of their favorite pieces that they have composed over the years. They not only showcased their own talents, but the talents of the students sharing the stage with them as well. The show started a little after 8 p.m., with the Fullerton Big Band taking the stage, led FOLLOW US ON TWITTER: @THEDAILYTITAN

by director Chuck Tomlinson. They started off with an attention grabbing composition written by Jeff Beal called A Blues Grows in Brooklyn, which featured six solos. Following that, Big Band saxophonist Sayle Garcia came to the front of the stage for a featured spot in a piece called Flower is a Lovesome Thing by Billy Strayhorn. Garcia was captivating and received a rousing ovation at the end of the piece. The Big Band performed one more song, Miss Missouri, before bringing Ferrante and Mintzer to the stage. The duo came out to a thunderous applause from the nearly sold out crowd. They performed two original Yellowjackets songs written by Mintzer. The Jazz Orchestra, directed by Bill Cunliffe, came out after the intermission with Mintzer and Ferrante for five more songs. The Jazz Orchestra had some memorable solos, including Stephen Dizon’s drum solo on Run For Your Life. The solo had Mintzer, the composer of the piece, rocking his head in approval. Ferrante and Mintzer shared stories about their

favorite pieces before each was performed. Mintzer told a story about When the Lady Dances. He said that his wife is a dancer. If she is dancing, then that means the music is good. If she isn’t dancing, well, that means the opposite is true. The crowd laughed, then moments later awwed when he played a song written for her. Finally, the Big Band came on stage to join the Jazz Orchestra and the two special guests for the final song, Revelation. Revelation is a homage to gospel meets blues, meets jazz, according to Ferrante. The energy from the stage was contagious, and halfway through the song, Cunliffe instructed the crowd to start clapping. The crowd clapping in unison made it seem as if the entire room was part of the band. The entire show was engaging and included different tempos, paces and rhythms. The music may not have been what is playing on most popular radio stations today, but it did not disappoint. It is through shows like this that audiences are able to see how many talented musicians CSUF has.

OPINION HBO marks clear step into future

PAGE 5 MONDAY OCTOBER 20, 2014

The cable giant is offering an online-only service, which could be the future of entertainment

ALEX GROVES Daily Titan HBO Chairman and CEO Richard Plepler recently announced the launch of a standalone HBO streaming service that would offer all the same HBO content without the matching price tag of a full cable plan. The streaming service will be available as early as next year. The streaming service is not some temporary means of attaining more revenue, but a well thought out and reasoned way of staying ahead of the curve in an era when the web rules all. The simple fact of the matter is that streaming services have proven time and time again that they are popular and have a potential for profit. Netflix, Hulu Plus and Amazon Prime are all quickly becoming juggernauts of entertainment dissemination. Netflix has been having noticeable growth over the last few years, with its large selection of movies, syndicated shows and independently produced series. Netflix has seen its stock rise from a low of $54 per share to $357 per share in a little more than two years as more investors see how it could exist as a functional business model. It’s not just the investors who are paying attention. Netflix has seen growth in the number of paying customers it has, and will likely see more growth in the coming decade. Trefis, a website that

specializes in studying stock prices and the factors that move them, estimated that Netflix could see as many as 47 million customers by 2019. Netflix grew much more quickly than originally anticipated, and announced that by

mid-June of this year it already had gained 50 million customers. As a streaming service, Netflix is barely profitable. However, its sizeable revenue growth of 22 percent this fiscal year should be an indication of how

the streaming entertainment business is no longer child’s play. Hulu Plus and Amazon Prime are also doing well; the services have an estimated 5 million and 10 million subscribers, respectively. Each made $1 billion or

more in revenue last year. It’s important to understand why these companies are all performing at such a high level. It may be due to the fact that millennials are starting to shift the framework of how entertainment is viewed.

VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM/OPINION

Millennials are not watching as much television as the generations before them did. In fact, 34 percent of the millennial population watches online streaming more than traditional sources of entertainment like television, according to a New York Times report. That’s an important statistic because it means that 1 in 3 people in their 20s and 30s watches Netflix or some other streaming service more often than they watch television. It makes perfect sense that entertainment companies would capitalize on that sooner rather than later, as millennials rise into the workforce and begin to earn more income. Assuming that their viewing habits don’t change, millennials are going to want accessible forms of entertainment for a price that doesn’t break the bank. Companies can either respond with change, or be left out of the equation. If the success of other online services is any indication, HBO should have no trouble entering the marketplace with its own streaming service. After all, it already has licensing agreements with film companies and has its own line of independently-produced content. Netflix may have award-winning series such as House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, but HBO has a cult hit on its hands with Game of Thrones. Only time will tell just how successful HBO will be with its streaming service, but there’s a lot to suggest the company will fare just fine when the service gets up and running.

CSUF volleyball ends losing skid Titans split weekend matches but earn first Big West victory over UC Riverside

MICHAEL HUNTLEY Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton women’s volleyball team put an end to their seven-game losing streak Saturday against UC Riverside. The nearly month-long drought was the longest for the team since 2003. The weekend began on a sour note when the Titans lost a five-set thriller to the UC Davis Aggies at Titan Gym Friday. UC Davis captured its fourth straight Big West Conference victory. The Aggie defense stepped up and accumulated 14 blocks compared to the Titans’ four. Senior middle blocker Katie Quinn tallied seven blocks for the top blocking unit in the Big West. Despite the dominant blocking unit of UC Davis, the Titans managed to establish solid offensive play. Sophomore McKenna Painton had another standout offensive performance with a team-high 19 kills. She also had 10 digs and got her third consecutive double-double. Four Titans recorded double-digit kills, but that is largely due to the match going five sets. It was only the third match CSUF has played this season that has required five sets. Freshman Stephanie

Buss was one of four Titans with double-digit kills. She hit an impressive .529 on 17 total attempts. Junior setter Mackenzie Olsen had a season-high 54 assists. The University of Delaware transfer has picked up her game in Big West play, averaging 10.23 assists per set in conference action. She averaged 9.38 assists per set for the Blue Hens in 2013. Outside hitter Kaylin Squyres was outstanding for the Aggies, posting 25 kills and 20 digs, both game highs. She is second in the Big West in kills per set with 3.90. The Titans played particularly well in the second set, where they had a .407 hitting percentage and committed just five errors. The two teams tied eight times during the set before CSUF went on a 10-4 run to end the set and tie the match at one set apiece. In the ensuing set, the Titans failed to carry the momentum of set two. They shot just .042 in the set, compared to the Aggies’ .522. The Titans committed eight errors in the frame and Davis won seven of the last eight points to take the 2-1 lead in the match. Defense was on display in the fourth set. The teams combined for 52 digs in the frame and libero Paige Reed had eight of her season-high 17 digs in the set.

The Titans finally edged out a conference foe as they took down the UC Riverside Highlanders on Saturday at Titan Gym.

The Titans narrowly edged the Aggies to force the deciding fifth set. Neither team dominated the fifth set and the margin of error was slim. The Aggies secured the victory when Allie Wegener notched her 10th kill of the night to end the match. The following night, the Titans stepped up and earned their first Big West victory of the season. CSUF dominated the first set, only trailing once

in the frame. The Titans trailed 18-13 in the second set, before scoring seven of the next nine points to tie the score at 20. A kill from freshman outside hitter Niki Withers secured the second set to give CSUF a commanding 2-0 lead. The Titans dropped the third set 25-23. They led 23-21, but the Highlanders got four consecutive points to steal the frame. Back-to-back attack

errors from Olsen and Holland Crenshaw sealed the set for UCR. The fourth set was a close affair, but the Titans maintained a two or three point lead throughout. An Olsen kill gave the Titans a 24-21 lead when a service error from Haili Hoeft handed the match to the Titans. Painton earned her fourth consecutive double-double with 18 kills and 11 digs. Withers and fellow freshman Katelyn

Nielson also had double-digit kills with 14 and 10, respectively. Olsen had 47 assists to give her an eye-opening 105 over the weekend. Her stellar weekend helped to put her in second place in the Big West rankings in assists with 725, only trailing Shelley Anderson of UC Irvine, who the Titans will battle Friday. The Titans hope that the win will give them momentum entering the final month of their season.

Women’s tennis struggles in San Diego The Titans had some strong showings from their young athletes over the weekend

JOSEPH ANDERSON Daily Titan Singles play at the ITA Southwest Regionals in San Diego was a mixed bag for the Cal State Fullerton women’s tennis team. The prestigious event got off to a promising start for

the Titans, as four Titans won singles events and two pairs of CSUF players advanced in doubles action on Thursday. However, the fast start was not continued on Friday. Sophomore Alexis Valenzuela suffered a 6-3, 6-1 defeat to the tournament’s No. 3 seed, UCLA’s Kyle McPhillips. Jessica Pepa and Michelle Erasmus

also fell in singles action. Doubles play wasn’t much better for the Titans, as the team of Valenzuela and freshman Danielle Pham was ousted from the winner’s bracket along with the pairing of Emilia Borkowski and Camille De Leon. Singles play did not go well for the CSUF women’s tennis team on Saturday either, as only one of their seven

participants earned a victory. Five Titans were eliminated from play, as Valenzuela, De Leon, Erasmus, Pepa and Megan Sandford all suffered defeats. Pham earned her third victory of the 2014 season by defeating Lisa Piller of Loyola Marymount University in the round of 32 Lucky Loser Bracket. While it was a relatively

rough showing for the Titans in Regional play, there is plenty for them to build on going forward. Several of the opponents CSUF faced were nationally-ranked squads, of which only Long Beach State is in the Big West Conference. Since a majority of the Titans’ spring regular season schedule is against conference foes, they should be able

to build off of their Regional performance. With two experienced veterans in De Leon and Valenzuela leading the way alongside an influx of young talent such as Pham, the Titans will have plenty of talent to succeed going forward. The Titans will return to action Oct. 30 when they head to Palos Verdes for the Jack Kramer Invitational.

SPORTS Titans unbeaten in Big West

PAGE 8 OCTOBER 20, 2014 MONDAY

DTBRIEFS Ice hockey drops two to NAU The Cal State Fullerton ice hockey team lost a pair of games over the weekend against the Northern Arizona University Ice Jacks. The Titans entered play with a 6-1 record and NAU entered with a 5-1 record, with their only loss coming at the hands of the Division I Arizona Wildcats. NAU jumped on the Titans early in game one Friday, going up 5-0 after two periods of play. The Titans managed to finish strong with three goals in the third period, but the deficit was too much as they fell 6-3. Six different Ice Jacks scored goals, and Benoit Cousineau Cote dished out four assists. The biggest blow came when the Titans lost defenseman Trevor Cigich to a fractured leg. The senior leads the Titans in assists with six and is a key part of the defense. CSUF put up a fight early in game two but fell to NAU 10-3. The Titans wrap up their nine-game homestand against San Jose State Sunday. - MICHAEL HUNTLEY

CSUF women’s soccer upsets first place Cal State Northridge 1-0 Sunday

RUDY CHINCHILLA Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer team upset Cal State Northridge Sunday, earning its second win of Big West Conference play in the process. Fullerton striker Rebecca Wilson was again the difference-maker for the Titans, scoring the only goal of the game and giving CSUF the much-needed victory. The Titans entered the game off the back of a hard-fought tie against Long Beach State in their last competitive match after taking a 10-day break from competitive action. Meanwhile, Northridge entered the game with a perfect conference record and as leaders in the Big West standings, winning four consecutive games. The Matadors tried to assert their dominance early, creating the first chance of the match five minutes after the opening whistle. Sophomore striker Cynthia Sanchez threaded the ball to fellow striker Brittanie Sakajian. Sakajian dribbled to the left, but her rising shot was saved by CSUF freshman goalkeeper Morgan Bertsch, who was back in the net for a suspended Jennifer Stuart, who earned a red card against Long Beach. Northridge continued the pressure, trying to surprise Bertsch in the eighth minute. Their second attempt saw Breanna McCallum settle the ball for Taylor Hobson, who fired from 35 yards. Her effort, however, went over the crossbar. In the 14th minute, the

Matadors again were on the front foot. This time, Kendall Moskall delivered a throw-in to Hannah Wissler, who flicked to Hobson. Fortunately for Fullerton, Hobson’s shot was again off target. The Titans finally responded in the 18th minute by way of Christina Burkenroad. Burkenroad’s shot from outside of the box never troubled Matador goalkeeper Jovani McCaskill, though, as a defender stuffed her attempt. Two minutes later, CSUF again went forward, but this time they forced a save. Midfielder Amanda Howard tried her hand from distance, but McCaskill was equal to her effort. Bertsch was again called to action in the 30th minute when the Titans were caught

upfield. On the counterattack, Sanchez passed to Sakajian, who then passed to Tabatha Dickson. Dickson, however, couldn’t convert, giving Bertsch her second save on the night. Three minutes later, Bertsch was again the savior for Fullerton. Kourtney Kurtscher sent the ball through to Sakajian, who fired from 20 yards. Bertsch, though, kept the low-driven, left-footed shot from finding the back of the net. In the 36th minute, the Titans again managed to mount an attack. Connie Caliz crossed the ball from the left to defender Morgan Batcheller, who found her way up the pitch. She managed to get through her markers, but she

failed to find the target with her header. Bertsch again played the role of hero in the 41st minute. Kiley Norkus took a shot, but Bertsch made the diving save that sent the ball out for a corner. In the subsequent play, Nicole Thompson tried a header for the Matadors, but she failed to find the target, redirecting the ball wide of the goal. The teams ended the first half scoreless. In the second half, the Titans took the initiative. The 49th minute saw Brianna Chapman try a left-footed shot from distance, but McCaskill made the easy catch. The deadlock finally ended in the 56th minute off a penalty.

Sour homecoming for Kuntz The Titan men’s soccer team fell to the No. 7 ranked UC Irvine Anteaters 1-0.

JOSEPH ANDERSON Daily Titan The three-match winning streak for the Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team ended Saturday night as the Titans suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat to No. 7 UC Irvine at Anteater Stadium. UCI’s Bryan Breslin scored the lone goal in the 72nd minute, firing in a volley off of Gor Kirakosyan’s corner kick. UC Irvine improved to 111-2 overall and 3-1-1 in the Big West Conference with the hard-fought win, while CSUF fell to 7-6-2 overall and 2-3-0 in the Big West. The Titans remain in second place in the Big West South Division despite the defeat. The Anteaters held a 13-9 advantage in shots, including a 10-5 advantage in the second half. It was a chippy match all night, as 25 fouls were called with Fullerton committing 14. Six yellow cards were issued during the game with three going against each team. The match was a slowpaced defensive struggle throughout, as only seven combined shots were taken in the first 45 minutes. Each side came out amped up in the second half, as nine combined shots were taken in the first 15 minutes that included golden scoring opportunities for both sides. In the 48th minute, Irvine’s Gerardo Gonzalez had a clear shot at the first goal of the night, but the Titan defense was able to tip the shot just over the net. Just five minutes later, the Titans earned a free kick from outside the 18yard box, but neither Ritchie Gonzalez nor Julian Okai could convert.

Gabriel Quintero and the Titan defense played well Saturday, but the offense failed to score for the first time since Sept. 7.

Breslin totaled four saves for the Anteaters while Titan goalkeeper Jeff Salt had to make only two saves on the night. Salt continued his impressive play against a tough Anteaters offense that came in averaging a little over two goals per game this year. His impressive 2014 numbers include four shutouts, and his stellar play has been directly correlated with the Titans’ recent winning streak. CSUF was shut out for the fourth time this year, but this match might have been the most surprising result of those scoreless efforts. The Titans offense came in red hot with nine goals in their last three games, but struggled to find that same form against a tough UCI team. The match was Fullerton first-year Head Coach George Kuntz’s first return trip to UC Irvine, where he coached for 19 years (19952013) before joining the Titans in December. Kuntz’s squad will get another shot at the Anteaters on Oct. 29, when UCI visits Titan Stadium for

1 what will surely be another hard-fought and low-scoring affair. The Titans have found a winning formula that has put them near the top of the Big West standings, but they will need to execute better in order to take down a nationally-ranked foe. CSUF will need more big plays from leading scorers Garrett Losee and Marc Fenelus if they are going to continue to have success going forward. With just five matches left in the season, the Titans should feel confident about making the Big West Conference Tournament, but they will look to enter the postseason on another winning streak. The Titans return to action Wednesday night when they host Cal State Northridge at Titan Stadium at 7 p.m. before heading to UC Riverside on Saturday.
