Head coach put on leave Rick Vanderhook, baseball head coach, under investigation MATTHEW MEDINA & SAMUEL MOUNTJOY Daily Titan
Rick Vanderhook, the head coach of the Cal State Fullerton baseball team, was placed on paid administrative leave Thursday, according to a statement from the university. CSUF has received allegations regarding Vanderhook that it must review, the statement read. Mike Kirby and Jason Dietrich, current assistant head coaches for the Titans, will serve as the interim co-head coach. The Titans began a three-game series on the road against Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Thursday. The team learned about Vanderhook’s leave around 3:30 p.m. when they boarded the team bus to San Luis Obispo, Kirby said in an interview following the game Thursday. Vanderhook has not had a chance to address the team since he was placed on leave. The team was told that it was an ongoing matter that is being looked into and not to comment. CSUF lost to the Mustangs in an 8-0 rout Thursday. The news about Vanderhook caught some players off-guard, but did not seem to be a distraction to the players on the field, Kirby said. “It comes down to some simple things on the baseball field; throwing strikes, playing catch and putting the ball in play,” he said. “Coach Vanderhook isn’t hitting third or playing the field and neither are the coaches, so it really comes down to the players, and we got outplayed tonight.” The Mustangs went on to sweep the Titans in the Big West Conference series, the first time they have been swept in conference play since 2007, when they lost three games to UC Riverside. Their loss Saturday was their fifth in a row. In his latest interview, published Thursday by ESPN, the head coach complained about a lack of leadership among his players, saying they do not hold each other accountable for their mistakes. “They’re a soft group,” Vanderhook said. “And if they keep doing what they’re doing, they’re going to be the first team from Fullerton not to play in the postseason in 26 years.” Sportswriters have described the Titans’ head coach as outspoken and expressive.

Taking to the skies ROTC cadets get flight experience on Black Hawks ETHAN HAWKES Daily Titan
Chairs and backpacks were blown away and dirt was kicked up by the whipping winds from the rotors of two Black Hawk helicopters that descended onto Cal State Fullerton’s intramural field Friday. Cadets, instructors and civilians loaded single-file into the 11-passenger UH60 and got a bird’s eye view of the campus flying
at over 100 mph through the hazy sky in the imposing black warbirds. The event gave the battalion a break from their usual Friday class and lab exercises and an opportunity to familiarize themselves with helicopter procedure and safety. “I don’t think there has been a more visible event on campus that ROTC has ever done,” said Tyler Rund, an ROTC instructor who coordinated the event. “It’s a piece to show what ROTC is all about and to give our cadets who are actually in it a show of what the Army is all about.” After being securely
strapped into the helicopter’s collapsible seats, riders disembarked on a 20-minute ride over freeways and neighborhoods to Huntington Beach. Side doors were wide open to allow passengers to fully experience the aerial view of Orange County and the immense noise created by the rotors and the jet engine that spins them. Between the engine noises and deafening wind, passengers could only communicate with each other through facial expressions. SEE ROTC, 2

CSUF women’s soccer kicks off for charity Titans wrap up spring games with win over Bakersfield JOHNNY NAVARRETTE Daily Titan
Spring soccer results may not be considered official, but the Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer team played for something much greater than wins
and losses as it teamed up with Soccer For Hope to raise awareness for cancer in its final spring exhibition game of the semester. “Soccer For Hope is an outstanding organization,” said Head Coach Demian Brown. “We’ve just been so fortunate to have the opportunity to be over the last 10 years in support of the things they do. This event here today was just another opportunity for
our programs, both men and women soccer to really do our part in helping Soccer For Hope.” Soccer For Hope is a non-profit organization that was started in 1998 by founders Oliver and Jamie Wyss. In 1997, Oliver was a professional soccer player before being diagnosed with severe Aplastic Anemia, a rare blood disorder that ended his playing career.

Years later, both of Wyss’ young children, Hudson and Abella, were diagnosed with rare and cancerous brain tumors. Sadly, Hudson passed away in 2008 at the age of three while Abella continues her fight. The mission of Soccer For Hope is to continue its focus on childhood cancer research, awareness and family support. “They (CSUF) are always
generous with their time and they always commit to bringing their team out to our camp anytime we have any need for anything extra they go above and beyond,” said Adeela Syed, a representative for Soccer For Hope. “This is the first event we’ve had like this and it is thanks to Demian initiating it.” SEE SOCCER, 6

“One of the things I love about Cal State Fullerton coach Rick Vanderhook is that there is never a filter on him,” ESPN contributor Eric Sorenson said in an article accompanying the interview. “He is truly tell-it-like-it-is, completely unabridged.”
Vanderhook has been head coach since 2012. He agreed to a five-year contract extension in April 2013. Vanderhook’s 2013 salary was $140,000. The university declined to comment further concerning the incident while its investigation is underway. Mustang Daily reporter Lisa Diaz contributed reporting from San Luis Obispo.

Preparing the helicopters to come to CSUF has been in the works since September. The helicopters were originally set to land March 2, but that exercise was cancelled due to heavy rains. “Ironically enough, the day it was cancelled, we were actually approved and good to go that afternoon,” Rund said. Rescheduling wasn’t a problem because once the event was approved, everything was just about making sure the pilots and the facilities are available, Rund said. For many cadets, this was the first time they had ever been on a helicopter. “I didn’t know how loud it was going to be,” said Caleb Brown, a 21-year-old communications major. Brown said he was planning on going into the aviation branch of the army before riding on the Black Hawks, and he said the ride confirmed that he made the right choice. Other cadets, such as Cadet Star Cho, had different experiences. “It was fun and scary all at the same time,” Cho said. “The pilots were dipping us up and down just to make it more exciting for us, but that was also very scary because I am scared of heights.” The helicopter exercise was the last major event for ROTC this semester. In the summer, junior cadets will be tested in the culmination of their training– the leader development and assessment course.

Miscommunication between the ship’s crew and ship traffic controllers delayed rescue efforts. The ferry Sewol sank off the southern coast of South Korea Wednesday with 476 people aboard, and 200 are still missing. More than 320 of the passengers were students from Danwon High School in Ansan. Divers recovered more than a dozen bodies Sunday when they were able to find a way into the wreckage. Hundreds of divers and 204 vessels are searching the area. - SAMUEL MOUNTJOY

The shooting occurred as pro-Russia groups in Ukraine continue occupying government buildings. The Russian foreign ministry has blamed the attack on the Ukrainian far-right group, Right Sector.

Giving hands-on help to homeless Volunteers give supplies, food near parks, train stations GINA VAN STRATTEN Daily Titan
A group of volunteers led by a Cal State Fullerton student set out Saturday afternoon in Fullerton and Anaheim to hand out goodie bags to homeless people in time for Easter. Amie Zeoli, a CSUF master of public administration student, coordinated the event. Zeoli has put on two similar events in the past year around Christmas and Valentine’s Day. But this time was different. Zeoli and the volunteers said they were overwhelmed and shocked at the daunting increase in homeless population of both areas. Almost every part of Anaheim’s La Palma park and every bench by the downtown Fullerton train station was inhabited by homeless residents. “This is the largest amount of homeless that I have seen during these walks,” Zeoli said. “I wish I had more stuff to give out to help them.” Zeoli had packed her car with 45 goodie bags filled with hygiene products such as toothpaste, hand soap, a toothbrush, deodorant and more. She also purchased gift cards to fast food restaurants with a donation she received. Most volunteers purchased burritos and burgers on their way to give

to the homeless residents while they were still hot. Not one bag of chips was left over by the end of the night. As soon as Zeoli and the other volunteers started out around La Palma Park, they realized they were going to be short on supplies. At several points during the walk, dozens of homeless residents ran to catch up to the group to get a goodie bag or even just a bottle of water. Every homeless resident who received an item was beyond appreciative, some were in utter shock. Zeoli and the volunteers took time to speak with the homeless residents they encountered to try to find a reason
behind the sudden rise of inhabitants. Most attributed it to the recent annual closing of two homeless shelters in the area. The National Guard armories in Santa Ana and Fullerton accommodate about 400 homeless people combined, but they are only open during the fall and winter seasons. The shelter at the Fullerton Armory closed for the season on April 13 and won’t reopen until November. Among those who were staying at the armories was David Nesser, who has been homeless for about three months. “Once it closed, there was nowhere else for me to go, so here I am,” Nesser
said. Outlets for these homeless residents are slim, which is why Zeoli and the other volunteers find it important to help out in any way they can. Amanda Acosta, a sociology student, has been helping Zeoli and volunteering at a few other places in the area. “At La Palma park, by Salvation Army, they have a check-in center, a huge storage bin, and the homeless can check in their belongings and come in between 6 and 8:30 in the morning or from 4 to 6 at night and take what they need and leave what they don’t want. They can charge their cellphones there and then they go on their way. I volunteer there
also,” Acosta said. In June, the Fullerton City Council voted 3-2 against a permanent homeless shelter in the city. Denise Johnson, a volunteer, disagrees with their decision. Fullerton Mayor Doug Chaffee, who voted against the Fullerton shelter, is currently working on a year-round shelter in Anaheim. “There is an obvious problem and a shelter would go a long way in helping to solve this problem,” Johnson said. Zeoli said she plans to keep helping the homeless by passing out more goodie bags and food. She hopes to have another event scheduled in the next couple of months.
Local teenager breaks second record Troy High student cuts third world record run short MATTHEW MEDINA Daily Titan
Troy High School student Jacob Teepen unofficially added a second Guinness World Record to his collection Saturday, but fell short of achieving a third. At the El Dorado High School track, Teepen, a Whittier resident and high school junior, ran a mile with Sofia Bayliss, his girlfriend and a sophomore at Troy, riding piggyback. “When I crossed that finish line, I was like, ‘I need to get this weight off my back,” Teepen said. “The amount of training that was put into this, the amount of energy and effort and pain through that mile, after hearing that time, knowing that I’d broken it, it all paid off.” Friends and family recorded his time as 12 minutes and 35 seconds, which is 12 seconds faster than the existing record. After about 30 minutes, Teepen set out on the track once again to run another mile, this time holding Bayliss in a fireman’s carry hoping to break another record. He cut his attempt short about an eighth of the way in, anticipating that his fatigue would leave him unable to run quickly enough to break the current record of 11 minutes and 29 seconds. “I was already starting off much too slow,” he said. “The fireman’s carry (run) is a lot faster than the piggyback race. And with the fatigue I already had, I knew that I wasn’t going to break the record, and I did not want to waste what I could save.” Teepen plans to attempt

the record once again later, but does not yet know when. “It’s just going to be a small event,” he said. “I’m just going to come out, film it, get out.” Teepen does not intend to attempt another record back-to-back with the fireman’s carry run, as he did today. Although his training regimen did not include practicing the piggyback and fireman’s carry runs consecutively, he did initially think he could perform them backto-back Saturday. “Even now, I felt like I could do it again until I started (running),” Teepen said. Bayliss wore a 30-pound vest and a 15-pound belt
to comply with the requirement that competitors must carry a partner of equal or greater weight. Although Bayliss was not doing the running, staying on Teepen was a challenge, especially with the equipment adjusting her center of gravity. She experienced numbness and soreness in her arms during the piggyback run. “It was a little hard to stay on, but it was all worth it,” she said. El Dorado offered the use of its track to the Teepen family free of charge, and the Rotary Club of Fullerton paid for liability insurance for the event.
“I was just proud as can be of him,” said Jeremy Teepen, Jacob’s father. “It was his idea, so it all comes down to him, for the most part. We offer help, and he usually says ‘no thanks,’ because he wants it to be him.” In addition to individual records, Jacob Teepen said he wants to lead two attempts to break mass participation records at Troy later this year. The records he intends to challenge will be the most people wearing paper crowns, which stands at 749, and the most people simultaneously unwrapping candy, which stands at 614. “That is another backto-back event,” he said. “I’m just organizing it; I’m
letting my entire school do the actual breaking of it.” If Guinness confirms Teepen’s performance is a new world record in the coming months, it will be his second record overall. In October, Teepen performed 45 consecutive back handsprings at the Fullerton Golf Course, breaking the previous official record of 44 overall and 42 among male competitors. Guinness confirmed his feat as a world record in January.

OPINION
Early quake detection is needed
MIA MCCORMICK Daily Titan
The benefits of the warning system far outweigh what it would cost to establish it After the magnitude-5.1 earthquake hit Southern California in late March, talk of “the big one” was on nearly everyone’s lips. But perhaps even more prominent than talk of a future tectonic catastrophe, was the fear of the devastation associated with earthquakes reminiscent of the 1994 Northridge earthquake. If anything has been learned in the last 20 years since that major quake occurred, it’s that proper preparation and awareness are key factors in minimizing the harm that can all too likely be the result of earthquakes of this magnitude. In the wake of this heightened widespread paranoia, California might want to take some tips from Mexico, which has had an early earthquake alert system in place for some time now. Our neighbors south of the border recently experienced a major earthquake in their capital city, which vibrated its way to a 7.2 measurement on the
APRIL 21, 2014 MONDAY
moment magnitude scale. This scale has replaced the more commonly known Richter Scale due to its more accurate means of measurement. However, rather than being taken by surprise by this potentially life-threatening quake, the people of Mexico City and its surrounding areas were allotted over a minute of warning thanks to their 21-year-old early warning system. Exactly 71 seconds after the alarm sounded, the underground waves brought about by the shifting tectonic plates that had originated about 200 miles away were felt at the capital news station. This warning was broadcasted via a news telecast, air sirens and an earthquake radio station created specifically for this purpose. This allowed citizens of the affected area to amply prepare themselves, giving them the time needed to brace themselves in a safe area and wrap their mind around the necessary precautions that should be taken in this type of emergency, which is often mentally paralyzing for those in the midst of the shaking. A warning system of this kind is not inexpensive by any means, but Mexico has invested in the development of this costly system for good reason: the country’s west coast was rocked by an 8.0 earthquake in 1985, killing 9,000 people and causing
structural damage to more than 3,000 buildings. With all of the talk going around California’s earthquake rumor mill, it’s about time the government stepped up to the plate (tectonic or otherwise), and invest in the safety of a state where earthquakes are such a relevant issue. Granted, a mechanism similar to the Mexican seismic alert system would cost the U.S. Geological Survey approximately $16 million a year to set in place. However, if it was effective in bringing those in the harm’s way to safety and avoiding a potential devastation, funding this type of system is worth the cost. It is virtually undeniable that this is quite the hefty price to pay for safety from something that may not occur. However, in the case that a quake of life-threatening proportions does roll in, $16 million pales in comparison to the $13 to 20 billion that earthquake damage has the potential to rack up. This is a preliminary estimate for earthquakes of this size, according to USGS. If nothing else, California could put this system in place in case of emergencies, but leave it inactive when risk is low. Regardless of the specific usage of this system, the threat of earthquake related devastation far outweighs the cost of effective protection from it, and warrants implementation.

And Then There Were None THEATRE REVIEW
Classic murder mystery with black-and-white color scheme opened Friday ZACK JOHNSTON Daily Titan
MARIAH CARRILLO / Daily Titan The April menu for “Unpretentious Wine Thursday” at Bourbon Street Bar and Grill in downtown Fullerton featured three wine pairings with courses influenced by classic Southern cuisine.
Downtown, uncorked Bar highlights menu with monthly wine pairing dinner MIA MCCORMICK Daily Titan
Thursday nights in the college community are often deemed “Thirsty Thursday.” While most downtown establishments embrace and relish in this night of bar hopping, Bourbon Street Bar and Grill has taken on a different approach, at least for one night out of the month. For the third month in a row, the New Orleans-themed restaurant and bar offered up its hospitality before the usual bar crowd trickles in for an event the owners have called “Unpretentious Wine Thursday.” This month’s event featured wines from J. Lohr Estates paired with a three-course menu inspired by the Southern Classics theme for the night. The first course started the night off with savory “Voodoo shrimp” served atop rice. The starter was paired with the J. Lohr 2012 Riverstone Chardonnay. This rich white wine complemented the dish
with its distinct buttery notes. Southern comfort food also made an appearance on the evening’s menu during the second course. The Bourbon Street chefs took on a comfort food classic but gave it their own unique twist. A subtly spicy tomato bisque was served appropriately alongside a Gouda and cheddar parmesan crusted grilled cheese, taking an uncommon approach on this American culinary staple. This rich and creamy second course was offset by a crisp 2012 Flume Crossing Sauvignon Blanc. This white wine had a defined grapefruit taste, helping to cut through the richness of the bisque and grilled cheese, balancing out the course. Lastly, the night’s menu was rounded out with a course that was hot, salty, meaty and sweet all at the same time. Country fried steak was stacked on a blue cornmeal Belgian waffle and smothered in their house country sausage gravy with just a dash of Louisiana Hot Sauce and finished with a sprinkle of green onions. This final dish of the night was paired with a fruity, easy-drinking
merlot. The 2011 Los Osos Merlot contrasted the heavy flavors of the Southern dish with its bright notes of black plum and pomegranate, while complementing the sweetness of the waffle and maple syrup-infused steak with its hints of cocoa and the savory gravy with its cedar tones. Overall, like the food and wines offered Thursday night, the ambiance of the event was relaxed and lowkey. The turnout was modest, and although it did not pack the seats of the bar and restaurant, it added to the comfortable and cozy atmosphere that this event boasts. “Unpretentious Wine Thursday” is set to be a recurring monthly event at Bourbon Street for the remainder of 2014. Next month’s event will take place May 15. The featured menu items will derive its influence from “Cajun fusion favorites,” with four courses including well-known dishes like shrimp jambalaya and chicken gumbo. May’s menu will be paired with Root: 1 Wine. Reservations are encouraged for this event. To reserve a spot for the next “Unpretentious Wine Thursday,” call (714) 626-0050.
Ten talented actors star at The Young, tensions rise and fears grow until there are none. Cal State Fullerton’s production of And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie opened on Friday, April 18, at The Young Theatre. The suspenseful murder mystery is full of surprises and plot twists while following an innovative film noir concept. Based on the eerie nursery rhyme “Ten Little Indians,” And Then There Were None is the story of 10 people who are invited to stay on an island under false pretenses where they eventually become stranded. A murderer hidden among them begins to lay waste to each of the guests one by one as they panic to figure out who it is. The play is based on Christie’s best-selling novel of the same title, which has sold over 100 million copies, making it one of the best selling books of all time. The secretary of the group’s alleged host, Vera Claythorne is elegantly played by Natalie Beisner. Beisner exuberates poise and charm as Claythorne greets the guests upon arrival. She displays consistent development
in her character as Claythorne’s fear of becoming the next victim drives her to hysteria. Collin Andrews plays the headstrong former soldier, Phillip Lombard. Andrews presents Lombard’s audacious and flirty nature as he’s pursuing the killer or wooing Claythorne. The sophisticated and intelligent Sir Lawrence Wargrave is played by Vahan Oknayan. The retired judge relies on his wits to discover the identity of the killer. Oknayan delivers Wargrave with a flawless accent and an abundance of mannerliness. Kyle Anderson is mesmerizing in his role of General MacKenzie, an elderly World War I veteran with a troubled past. Anderson effortlessly fits his role, creating a powerful presence on stage. He expresses precise physicality from Mackenzie’s rugged stare to his lurching walk. The entire cast of this classic “who-done-it” was led by their director, Mark Ramont, who not only led his talented cast, but also brought the play’s film noir concept to fruition. The mystery, suspense and romance that makes up Agatha Christie’s work is reminiscent of the film noir era of the 1940s. With that in consideration, the entire visual aesthetic of the show is a monochromatic,
black-and-white color scheme. The scenic design by Kristin Campbell consists of an entirely black-andwhite set. Every piece of scenery and furniture falls into the gray-scale pattern without looking too monotonous. Matching the set is the costume design by Michelle Kincaid. Stylish suits and dresses all in various shades of black and gray fit both the color arrangement and the late 1940s setting. The challenging task of providing the hair and makeup design was taken on by Heather Korn. The actors’ skin and hair had to also appear in black and white while still looking natural and not overdone, and Korn achieved just that. The hair and makeup design seamlessly fits into the grayscale concept and adds to the performance. The exquisite light design by Harrison Haug keenly and creatively directs attention exactly where it is needed. The ominous sound design by Dayne Donnell perfectly fits the film noir concept with its dark music, filling the theatre with suspense. In addition to the amazing acting and clever concepts, the thrill of watching this exciting murder mystery comes from predicting the killer as the show progresses. The excitement of And Then There Were None can be enjoyed through May 4.
Burger Records expands its music RECORDS Continued from PAGE 1
The store is more than just an intimate hoard of records. The label now has more than 600 bands from all over the world under its name. “The world is very tiny and through social media it’s even smaller and Burger is an international thing,” Bohrman said. Bands from France, Australia and the United Kingdom all fall under the Burger umbrella. These bands play their music festivals all over the United States including Burgerama in Santa Ana. Despite their global recognition, they value local bands and understand the challenge of getting a music demo heard by a label. Bohrman and Rickard believe in listening to every demo that comes through their doors. Besides word of mouth, this is one way they discover diamonds in the rough buried in the pile of tapes that sits in the corner of their office. “Lee will just go through
50 demos and he’ll be like ‘There’s this one. I found the one,’” Bohrman said. Rickard and Bohrman said they look for sincerity and quality craftsmanship when deciding to sign a band to the label, no matter the band’s genre.

to spearhead the program, Danny Gonzalez. “We knew it was a good idea and that it would be successful, it just needed somebody to respond to all the emails and to work out the logistics,” Bohrman said. Wiener Records helps new musicians assemble and design their first tape, and establishes an Internet presence for them. There is potential for them to be signed to the Burger label once the band’s overall sound and personality has matured. Apart from the business aspect, Burger’s charm is that it leaves its doors and ears open to all kinds of music. “It’s important to us because we wanted to be given a chance when we were young,” Bohrman said. Bohrman and Rickard plan to expand with a Latin label that is unofficially called Discos Burritos and more music festivals throughout the country. “We collectively have too many ideas if there’s such a thing. But we’re bringing them out, one at a time,” Rickard said.

CSUF hands LBST its first conference losses Titans lose golden opportunity to sweep rival 49ers TAMEEM SERAJ Daily Titan
The Cal State Fullerton softball team nearly completed a sweep on Thursday over rival Long Beach State, but ended up settling for a split in its doubleheader. The victory in the first game of the doubleheader secured the series win after a run-rule win during the first game of the series on Wednesday.
WINNIE HUANG / Daily Titan Freshman Phil Bickford struggled in his relief role Friday, giving up the tying run in the eighth inning of the Titans 4-3 loss. CSUF lost in the 13th inning, dropping them to 2-3 in extra innings this year.
Titans suffer first sweep since 2011 BASEBALL
Game 1 Head Coach Kelly Ford sent out Christina Washington (9-5) to pitch the first game of the doubleheader. The freshman was masterful in taming a very potent 49er offense who leads the Big West Conference in batting average (.320) and runs scored (253). Washington cruised to a complete-game win despite not recording a strikeout. The Inglewood native surrendered only one run off of five hits and two walks. “We were all ready and just approached it like any other game and we came out ready to play,” Washington said. Her only blemish came in the fourth inning after recording two outs. Carli Sandoval and Ashlynn Booker each singled, and then a double by Sarah Carrasco drove in Sandoval. Ford was impressed with not only Washington’s performance, but the whole pitching staff in the series. “Wasn’t that great to watch? I knew that our pitchers had that in them and to see them perform like that was outstanding. I’m so proud of our whole staff,” Ford said. Long Beach State Head Coach Kim Sowder went back to pitcher Erin Jones-Wesley (18-6) despite getting roughed up in the first game of the series. Jones-Wesley improved from her horrendous game on Wednesday, but still took the loss after giving up three runs, two earned, in the third inning. With runners on the corners, senior shortstop Gabby Aragon knocked in the first run with a bloop single to left field. With the bases loaded, freshman Sydney Colenzo picked a great time to knock in her first RBI of her CSUF career. Colenzo’s single dribbled through to center field and drove in senior Jena Rubio, and Aragon scored on an error. The Titans held on to win, 3-1, to clinch the series

1 against the 49ers. Game 2 After no home runs in the first game of the day, the power was on display in the second game. The Titans jumped on Long Beach pitcher Amanda Hansen early. In the first inning, senior catcher Ariel Tsuchiyama ripped a double, and Crawford singled in Rubio, who was pinch running for Tsuchiyama. The CSUF offense exploded in the second inning. Senior Lauren Mario led off the inning with a monster solo home run over the left center field wall. With two Titans on base, sophomore third baseman Missy Taukeiaho singled in junior Carissa Turang. The Titans then extended their lead to 6-0 with a three-run line drive home run by Tsuchiyama that crept over the right field wall. “This whole series I had not gotten one inside pitch out of all three games so as soon as that I got one I had to take advantage of it,” Tsuchiyama said. It seemed that the Titans were on their way to a series sweep, but the offense went cold after the second inning and only mustered four hits the rest of the way. After cruising through the first two innings, sophomore Jasmine Antunez (10-8) gave up her first run of the series in the third inning. The 49ers continued
to chip away at the lead in the fourth inning, getting two more runs. The 49ers completed their comeback effort with a three-run home run of their own in the sixth inning, courtesy of Leilani Tupua-Tautalatasi. Long Beach put up two more runs in the seventh off of sophomore pitcher Monique Wesley (4-6). It was Tupua-Tautalatasi once again that hurt the Titans, with a two-run single. Tupua-Tautalatasi finished the game batting four-forfour with six RBI’s. Jones-Wesley came in to pitch the seventh inning, and she had the last laugh of the series as she shut the door on the Titans to avoid the sweep. “We coasted. We gave them second chances and it cost us. Sometimes when you’re ahead you’re like ‘Oh, no big deal’ but with a team like this it’s a big deal. We didn’t play a clean game of softball the second half of that game,” Ford said. The Titans brought out a secret weapon during the series, a large stuffed animal dragon. After years of sitting in the locker room and almost getting tossed out by Ford, the dragon finally got to see the light of Anderson Family Field. With the success of the team in the series, it looks like Titan fans will see more of the dragon. “I think he (the dragon) will be staying with us for the rest of the season,” Tsuchiyama said.

GAME 1
GAME 1
The Cal State Fullerton baseball team travelled to San Luis Obispo to face No. 3 Cal Poly SLO in a threegame series, looking to get back in the Big West Conference championship race, but came home empty with a sweep. They had to adjust to life without Head Coach Rick Vanderhook, who was placed on administrative leave Thursday for “allegations that the university is obligated to review”. The Titans (18-16, 3-6 Big West) plummeted down the standings after getting swept by the Mustangs (345, 11-1 Big West), who proved their No. 3 ranking by Baseball America is legit. Game 1 In the first game on Thursday, the Mustangs defeated the Titans, 8-0. The Titans’ struggles at the plate and defensively continued as they only managed four hits and committed three errors in the field. Sophomore Justin Garza also struggled in his return to the starting rotation, making his first start since March 8 against Baylor. He allowed seven runs in 3.1 innings, but only four of those runs were earned. The Titans committed all three of their errors in the fourth inning. Mustang junior Nick Torres eventually scored on a crucial fielding error by sophomore outfielder Tyler Stieb after he hit a two-run single. Torres led the Mustangs with a three-for-five effort
and three runs batted in, and junior Matt Imhof notched the win for Cal Poly SLO from the mound with 6.1 shutout innings and nine strikeouts. Six runs were scored by the Mustangs in the fateful bottom of the fourth inning, and they never looked back. Game 2 The second game was much closer than the first game, but CSUF fell on the wrong end again in a 13-inning 4-3 loss. Sophomore Thomas Eshelman took the mound for the Titans and pitched well, allowing just two runs in seven innings while striking out four batters. However, his bid for a win was stifled in the eighth inning by the Mustangs, when sophomore Peter Van Gansen tied it up with an RBI single off freshman Phil Bickford. Van Gansen led the Mustangs by hitting four for five with two runs batted in on the day. Junior J.D. Davis pitched 4.2 innings and eventually gave up the game-winning run to Torres. This gave him his second loss of the season. With this defeat, 12 of the Titans’ losses have been decided by two runs or less this season. In addition to losses in extra innings, errors continued to plague the Titans. They committed another three. Junior Reed Reilly earned the win for the Mustangs with 4.2 innings pitched and nine strikeouts. The Titans had taken a 3-2 lead in the top of the fourth inning with a sacrifice fly from sophomore infielder Taylor Bryant and a triple from Clay Williamson.
Williamson led the Titans at the plate with a three-forfive performance that included his RBI triple and a double. Game 3 The series finale turned out to be another underwhelming hitting campaign from the Titans’ offense, as they lost 3-0 while notching only three hits. Junior Grahamm Wiest took the mound for CSUF and allowed three runs in eight innings, while two of them were earned. He struck out nine batters too, but ultimately took a hard-luck loss to drop his record to 2-4 on the year. Sophomore Mark Mathias got things started for Cal Poly SLO in the bottom of the first inning with a solo home run to deep left center. The Titans committed two errors in the fifth inning, and they allowed the Mustangs to capitalize with two runs. CSUF threatened in the top of the sixth inning, but sophomore Tanner Pinkston grounded into an inning-ending double play to leave the bases loaded and end the threat. The Titans then failed to get on base for the rest of the game. Casey Bloomquist earned the win for Cal Poly SLO with a complete-game shutout, allowing only three hits and striking out eight batters. The Titans will look to recover from their sweep and get back into postseason contention as they face Fresno State on the road and return home for a weekend series against Hawaii.

As for the game, the reigning Big West champions defeated Cal State Bakersfield, 2-0. Both goals were scored by sophomore forward Christina Burkenroad, the first coming in the fourth minute and the other coming in the 16th. For the Titans, the spring is a chance for players to step into bigger roles in preparation for next season and for the coaches to evaluate certain players more closely. “Individual players, their development. How they do things, how they
fit better within our program,” said Brown, whose team went 5-2 during the spring. “It’s really an opportunity for us to focus on individuals and I think we did a great job of that early on and from there to be able to put together a team concept.” The turn out from the community was impressive to see as families and their children came out to support the Titans and the cause. Before the college players took the field, the players of tomorrow took the field as 10 and 11-yearold girls from local soccer clubs Fullerton Rangers and West Coast Futbol

Club had the opportunity to showcase their skills in an exhibition game. In addition to those playing in the game, players from youth clubs such as Strikers FC, Orange County Premier and So Cal Blues took in the game to support the players they hope to become at the college level in a few years. “We’ve really spent the last four or five years developing a culture within our program that attracts people in the community,” said assistant coach Diego Bocanegra. “We want our women to be role models for the younger ones. I want my kids to look up to our women, so we do
a lot to give back to the community and I think it shows in their support for us.” On August 18-22, Soccer For Hope will hold its 17th annual Soccer For Hope Camp and Inspiration Walk at the World Cup Center in Mission Viejo. For the camp, boys and girls ages 8-19 are able to attend and high school students are eligible to receive high school community service hours. The cost of the camp is $125.
