Vice president of HR resigns

Lori Gentles to step down Dec. 7, said CSUF president GERARD AVELINO Daily Titan

Lori Gentles will be stepping down from her position as Vice President for Human

Resources, Diversity and Inclusion. In an email to all faculty and staff on campus Tuesday afternoon, Cal State Fullerton University President Mildred García announced that Gentles will resign effective Dec. 7. “Lori has been a strong colleague for all of us at Cal State Fullerton with her commitment to the mission, student success and support of faculty

and staff,” García wrote. Before working at CSUF, Gentles was the associate vice president of human resources at San Francisco State University from 2008 to 2013. Her experience includes working in human resources for Contra Costa County, as well as in the cities of Phoenix and Mesa in Arizona. After a nationwide search, Gentles was appointed vice

president at CSUF in June 2013, heading the newly-created Division of Human Resources, Diversity and Inclusion (HRDI). The new division has been overseeing employment-related tasks for the campus. Gentles’ division also focused on recruiting a qualified, diverse workforce as part of the university’s mission. García wrote that under Gentles’ leadership, the HRDI

division moved the university closer to Goal 3 of the CSUF Strategic Plan: “Recruit and retain a high-quality and diverse faculty and staff.” Through efforts from Gentles’ division, CSUF received the nationally contested 2014 “Inclusion Cultivates Excellence” award from the College and University Professional Association for Human Resources. HRDI also partnered

Vendors create a food community

The Anaheim Packing House is a beacon of quality EMILY DIECKMAN Daily Titan

The Anaheim Packing District is a revamped citrus packing plant that could be described as a “hipster paradise.” The vendors offer trendy items such as cold-brew coffee, ultra-healthy juices and even vegetarian sushi. The core idea behind the Packing House (and one might venture to say, behind the hipster movement in general) is not an emphasis on being different simply for the sake of being different, but on being different in order to stand apart from a world where suboptimal has become the norm. It’s about emphasizing a sense of local community and quality, rather than cold efficiency and affordability.

So while it’s certainly fun to play, “How many flannel shirts and cotton-candy haired girls can we find in the Packing House today?” it’s also fun to enjoy high-quality ingredients from high-quality people in a high-quality environment. The Packing House is an enterprise dedicated to a sense of individual and entrepreneurial spirit. As Alina Ayvazian, one of the owners of Dark 180, a gourmet chocolate shop inside the Packing House, said, “I think that everybody here definitely is trying to break away from the generic.” The building was designed by Shaheen Sadeghi, an entrepreneur who also owns projects such as the LAB (Little American Business), and The Camp, which are Orange County shopping centers that feature mostly small, local businesses and restaurants.

Scott Paynton, Ph.D., one of the three finalists for the position of dean of the Cal State Fullerton College of Communications, presented his experience and qualifications at an open forum held yesterday. Paynton is currently the associate dean of the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences at Humboldt State University and has worked there for the past 17 years. Other leadership positions that Paynton has held at HSU include university ombudsman, program director for international studies, department chair for communications, chair of the Academic Senate financial committee and vice chair of the Academic Senate. Paynton spoke of the CSU system as having an integral impact on his life. “My entire existence has been funded by the CSU.” he said. He jokingly told his two teenage kids that unless they get a scholarship, they have 23 schools to choose from. “I’ve seen (CSU) change people’s lives. I think there’s nothing greater in society than education,” he said. “I think it’s the most valuable thing we can offer.” Paynton earned his bachelor’s in English at CSU San Bernardino, his master’s in communication studies at CSU Chico, and his doctorate in humanities and social sciences at Southern Illinois University. His Ph.D. focused in organizational communication, leadership studies, interpersonal communication and health communication. SEE DEAN

Scott Paynton, Ph.D., an associate dean at Humboldt State University, spoke at an open forum Tuesday as part of his bid for the position of dean of the College of Communications.

Dean: Finalist speaks on leadership skills CONTINUED FROM

His experience is not limited to only leadership roles. He also taught classes at HSU, which included business and professional communication, leadership theory, human relational theory and interpersonal communications. Although Paynton had held mostly administrative positions in the latter portion of his career, he still finds it extremely important to teach a class or two if the opportunity arises. “It is important to me to keep that connection,” he said. “I will always identify myself as a faculty member. We’re here to educate students no matter what role we’re in.” Paynton tried to bolster the academic experience of his students by being involved in the promotion of “affordable learning

solutions.” He co-authored a textbook at HSU that was made available to students for free. A competitor’s textbook would have collectively cost students a total of $120,000, he said. Paynton also said that it was not possible to provide students with an exceptional educational environment unless faculty and staff also had an excellent working environment. “One of the things I’ve learned is the broader your view and perspective is, the more you can facilitate leadership,” he said. The forum transitioned to a question and answer format where faculty and staff inquired about his qualifications for becoming the dean of the College of Communications. One forum member asked Paynton what he thought was “the relationship between strategic

planning and actually doing something.” Paynton said that leadership played a crucial role in taking something from just a strategic plan to actually implementing it. He said that there is never a case where everybody involved is onboard with a plan, and so finding a balance is very important to moving forward. Another attendee asked what Paynton thought the dean’s role should be in terms of fundraising work. “The reality is in today’s world, I think the dean’s time in fundraising is probably 15 to 30 percent of the job,” he said. Paynton said that HSU is in the “baby cycle” in fundraising development and he has been the one person “cultivating donors and getting a culture of fundraising established.”

A San Diego-bound Amtrak train struck a man while passing through Tustin late Tuesday night, according to the OC Register. The man was taken to the UCI Medical Center in critical condition. None of the train’s 131 passengers were injured during the incident, said Amtrak spokesman Craig Schulz. Having come from San Luis Obispo, the train was stopped for the investigation in Tustin as of 10:16 p.m., almost an hour-anda-half after the man was hit. Sherita Coffelt, an agency spokeswoman for Metrolink, said the Orange County line will temporarily stop in Irvine, where passengers will await alternate transportation. - IMANI JACKSON

Man sitting on sidewalk killed by van A van struck and killed an unidentified 24-year-old man who was sitting on a curb in the 800 block of East McFadden Avenue in Santa Ana Tuesday afternoon, according to the OC Register. Roman Horta-Jaime, 55, was intoxicated while driving, headed eastbound on East McFadden Avenue when the incident occurred. The driver attempted to flee from the scene, but was followed by a witness who stopped the van and took Horta-Jaime’s keys so he couldn’t flee further. Horta-Jaime was arrested by police for suspicion of DUI and vehicular manslaughter on East Hobart Street after failing a field sobriety test. - IMANI JACKSON

LA police to study use of force In an attempt to help the public better analyze officer behavior, Los Angeles police will be collecting and reporting more in-depth data regarding the police’s use of force, according to the OC Register. The new data will include arrest demographics and demographics of people whom officers had used force on. This data will also include information on calls the police respond to, whether the incidents involve force or not. Yearly reviews concerning the use of force will be reportedly more comprehensive. “I want to provide enough data that people can see the total picture,” said police Chief Charlie Beck. He hopes that LA can become a leader in the “use of force” issue. - JASON ROCHLIN

Drugs from ‘Dune’ novels inspire talk Pollak Library lecture series returns with talk on psychedelic drug BRENT CABATAN Daily Titan At the lecture titled “The Spice Must Flow” held in the Pollack Library, Jonathan Taylor, Ph.D., illustrated how the fictional drug “spice” in Frank Herbert’s “Dune” novels is comparable to a real-world psychedelic drug known as DMT. “What is DMT and why am I talking about it?” asked Taylor, a Cal State Fullerton geography professor, when he commenced his seminar. “What does it have to do with the novel Dune?” Taylor is an expert on the geography of illegal drugs and teaches a class about it at CSUF. In the novel, “spice” is a substance of great influence. It brings long-lasting life and is considered an instrument of political power. Not unlike DMT, “spice” alters consciousness. The scientific term for this drug is dimethyltryptamine, and Taylor believes that it is “about the most powerful psychoactive drug” created in recent years. This drug is different in that it is not mass-produced like many of the other drugs that are available on the market, Taylor said. DMT has recently become popular among avid users of psychedelics, but it has also been taken by indigenous tribes in the

Cal State Fullerton professor Jonathan Taylor, an expert on the geography of illegal drugs, spoke of the effects of the psychedelic drug Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) as part of a lecture series hosted by the Pollak Library in celebration of the “Dune” series of novels.

Amazon and the Americas where they extract the drug from plants, using it in certain mixtures to experience spiritual occurrences. The drug also differs greatly from other hallucinogens because it does not last nearly as long as LSD or mushrooms. Taylor spoke about the abrupt

peak of the high that users experience as well as the rapid come-down. “The user is propelled in seconds into this very bizarre experience, which then ends maybe 10 minutes or so later,” Taylor said. “It makes it a much more practical drug for people who don’t have

time to spend 14 hours tripping.” DMT is classified as a Schedule I drug in the United States, which means that it has no medicinal value and has a high chance for prolonged abuse. It is listed in the same classification as heroin and ecstasy.

“DMT actually exists in the human body … in all of our brains and our blood, but in very tiny, trace amounts,” Taylor said. “The effects of (hallucinogenic drugs) on consciousness are very interesting and I think that we need to study them very seriously. It’s more than just

recreational use.” Taylor expressed interest in finding out the implications of taking a drug like DMT, which alters perception in seconds and then brings reality back to the user in only minutes. “What does that mean about our experience with consciousness?” he asked.

Art: Students showcase creations CONTINUED FROM

Students who are art buffs or just looking for a place to get away from the chilly weather can stop by the Titan Student Union’s annual Student Art Show to see what the art department has on display. Artwork will be displayed in all three galleries – the Center Gallery, Chapman Gallery and Plaza Gallery – all located on the ground level of the TSU. The show is free for all Cal State Fullerton students. The Center Gallery currently features a plethora of artwork that can appeal to many people’s interests. Katrina Rocha, an art major, created untitled pieces that manage to make plain bed sheets look intriguing to viewers. “I really wanted to work on a study that would improve my work overall,” Rocha said. “It was more about taking something everyday, like a sheet, and using that to convey emotion from something you wouldn’t normally get. It’s all about playing with color and lighting to evoke more feelings.” Rocha’s paintings are just some of the many pieces that students can stop by and admire. Other artworks include oil paintings of animals, ceramic sculptures and hot glass shaped into various forms. Some of the pieces are more straightforward, while others take some critical thinking to understand. The distinct differences among the crafts reflect the diversity present in the art department and in the brilliance of student ideas.

Heather Wright, an art major, said she drew inspiration from narratives for her ceramic sculpture. “I’ve been thinking a lot about narratives and storytelling and different kinds of homes,” Wright said of her piece. “It’s a little fox burrowed in a home. It’s just layers and kind of organic, can’t really tell what kind of home it is.” Students who spend a fortune on art supplies have a chance to win back a few dollars in a contest that will be held at the end of the art show. The Best of Show prize is $250, second place prize is $150 and third place is $100. The Artwork Acquisition Committee is a CSUF program focused on providing exposure for student artwork. The committee will review the work for anyone who is interested in purchasing the pieces. Chris Buoye, a business major, stumbled upon the art show. He said the artists did a great job, and he enjoyed admiring the various artwork. “I was studying in the computer lab, and I love art and looking at different stuff that people create. I think creativity is super important.” Buoye said. With so many patrons attending the show, people’s shoulders brushed each other at every turn in the minimal walking space. Students were able to show support for the artists and get a sense of how hard the entire art department works to help art majors hone their skills. The TSU’s annual Student Art Show take place every Monday and Wednesday from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. until Jan. 29.

A single corner of the Packing House offers everything from freshly squeezed juice and smoothies at Lemon Drop, to 24 craft beers on tap at Iron Press, to seafood at the Chippy Fish and Grill. Patrons can stop in for a quick drink, sit down for a full meal or enjoy a decadent dessert in a colorful, laid-back environment.

Packing: An oasis of individuality CONTINUED FROM

In the spirit of breaking the mold and being original, these places are often referred to as Orange County’s “anti-malls.” Sadeghi’s background spans an array of fields, but his current projects all possess a sense of dedication to combining homey familiarity with values such as sustainability and ultra-high quality. The Packing House itself has received a Preservation Design Award from

the California Preservation Foundation because it repurposed an old warehouse into a useful and much-beloved gathering place for the community. It also received the Historic Renovation Project of the Year award in 2014 from the American Society of Civil Engineers. The Packing House is now home to over 20 little factories of quality, ranging from the decadent (ice cream and chocolate) to the savory (poutine, sushi and grilled cheese) to the

absolutely essential (several bars, including a wine bar and a speakeasy). The “quality” ideal is being positively received by the general community, not just hipster college students. The live bands on the weekends, and occasionally during the week, draw large crowds of different demographics because of the different music genres featured. Many patrons return regularly to the Packing House and go through a familiar

routine of choosing their meal, grabbing a dessert and scouring for a seat. Since the Packing House has so much to offer, many customers come to try something new and different with every visit. Curious patrons filter in, having heard about the fish and chips at Chippy’s from a friend, or having seen a famously photographable Popbar on Instagram, and leave without disappointment. “I just wanted to try all of the different foods see

kind of like a whole experience to see what’s offered at the Packing House,” said Andy Alimohammadi, a 20-year-old Cal State Fullerton student who was visiting the Packing House. His statement rings true for both patrons and business owners alike. As Ayvazian said, she and her husband highly respect the other business owners in the building. “We know what they have to go through in order to create what they have created,” she said, “as well

as the imagination and creativity and the heart that goes into making their signature dishes.” The story of the Packing House, from its grand opening last summer to its current bustling state, is a fascinating one. Most of the shop owners who make their livelihoods there have incredible, unique tales to tell. People and ingredients from all around the world have found their way into Anaheim to be a part of this innovative community.

Fatty pork, scallions, fluffy eggs and soft white rice served with a side of crisp ginger pairs perfectly with a bowl of hot ramen.

What’s Up Men also offers sake, soju and beer sets. The beer set is perfect for anyone who loves to drink beer and snack on an appetizer while waiting for her food. For $7.50, patrons can order an Asahi draft beer with a choice of edamame or yakko (cold tofu). For a dollar more, patrons can choose kimchi, gyoza, aged

potato or sausage for their appetizer. Although What’s Up Men doesn’t offer student discounts or specials, it does offer lunch combinations that include a bowl of ramen and a side dish for $11. There are five different ramen selections and eight different side dishes to choose from. Be prepared for a wait

during lunch and dinner rush hours, as the restaurant seats only 10 people at the bar and about 25 at tables. The bar seats are the ideal place to sit because they offer the opportunity to enjoy dinner and a show. As in many traditional noodle houses, the kitchen is right before the eyes of patrons seated at the bar. The swift hands of the chefs

on busy nights are exciting to watch while customers wait for their food. What’s Up Men, located on the corner of Chapman Avenue and State College Boulevard, offers a comfortable setting, great service and authentic food.

Beverly Hills feels falsley entitled

Fined California cities need to be more drought-conscious DAISY CARLOS Daily Titan

In what can be called a huge diva-esque move, one Southern California city’s residents are pulling out their entitlement cards and failing to comply to water conservation strategies, even as the state faces its most severe drought in recorded history. In a game-changing move against the largest drought in state history, Gov. Jerry Brown hit 4 SoCal cities — Beverly Hills, Redlands, Indio and the Coachella Valley — with $61,000 fines for failing to conserve water, according to San Jose Mercury News. Beverly Hills residents in particular have not only used 175 million gallons of water above the state-enforced water conservation target since June, but also used 169 gallons of water per person in the month of September alone, compared to the 68 gallons per person used by Los Angeles residents. These 90210 residents are effectively demonstrating to all of the California residents doing their part that money doesn’t buy you class — or in this case, basic conscientiousness. Sorry, Beverly Hills. During a conference call

with reporters, the state board’s enforcement director, Cris Carrigan, declared that not enough efforts were made on behalf of all cities. For Beverly Hills in particular, Carrigan said that incompliant residents should be ashamed. “I’m sure there are people there who are very conscientious and doing their part,” Carrigan said. “For those who aren’t and who are wasting water, I would say you should be ashamed of yourselves.” As they should be. What good will flourishing green lawns do for the wealthy community when the state becomes a depleted desert ghost town? Too extreme? Maybe. But you get the idea. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Marjan Zohoury, a Beverly Hills resident for almost 25 years, said that while she understands the need to conserve, dried yellow lawns aren’t what Beverly Hills stands for. “Beverly Hills is supposed to be known as the nice, beautiful city,” Zohoury told the LA Times. “If we don’t water the grass, then what? Cactuses? Fake grass? Do people really want that for Beverly Hills?” Probably not — but the issue of water conservation goes far beyond basic garden aesthetic and green grass egos. It’s a matter of conserving our most vital natural resources; once they are gone, it will be hard to get them back.

Beverly Hills is one of four Southern California cities fined for not conserving enough water to help alleviate the effects of severe drought. Some citizens feel that the city should be exempt from fines so that it can maintain its luscious green appearance.

Modern film critics lack sincerity Andrew O’Hehir’s “Love” review displays honest criticism DAVID LEOS Daily Titan Salon.com movie critic Andrew O’Hehir is a genuine intellectual commentator. The Brooklyn, New York native, who’s also contributed to the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Hollywood Reporter, is versed in a way most critics aren’t. He’s persuasive, thorough, knows a ton about movies and is completely honest — the kind of critic that has been forced out of existence by movie companies and public relations firms. So when O’Hehir penned a lurid and revealing testimony of one of the most sexually explicit movies to come out of the Cannes Film Festival in recent memory, Gaspar Noé’s “Love,” he did so with an evocative scope that looked through depthless caricatures, questionable dialogue and substandard acting. Although seemingly not

fashionable these days for one to rely on his or her gut instinct when informing the public on a particular event, topic or, in this case, motion picture, O’Hehir’s allegiance seems to be with movie-goers who understand not everything is as seen. “Love,” in respect to the Argentine-born director’s previous vexed works — “I Stand Alone,” “Irreversible” and “Enter the Void” — is a palatable rendition of his normal push-the-absolute-limitof-movie-making style. Horrific violence, overt sexuality, coarse language and extremely tense situations are what Noé typically delivers to audiences with his films, but this heterogeneous edition, which is represented as a heartfelt 3D porn flick, seemed to saturate O’Hehir’s consciousness — in other words, falling for it hook, line and sinker. “Even with (‘Love’s’) abundant flaws and its willingness to embarrass itself, this strange and extraordinary film never lost me and never let me go; it wrapped me in a dreamlike rapture and then in

a sense of profound and nearly universal personal tragedy,” O’Hehir wrote in his review. Possessing an innate ability to identify with the critic and movie going opposition, O’Hehir’s perspective is highly unconventional in today’s environment. Despite his equivocally indecent interest in “Love,” currently sitting at a 50 percent rating on the Rotten Tomatoes “Tomatometer,” he knew others would pan the film, the consensus labelling it fascinatingly licentious for its steamy, unsimulated sex scenes, yet completely unworthy of cinematic praise for its lack of conviction and immaturity, as reported by other critics. O’Hehir wrote: “‘Love’ will surely strike some viewers as not nearly subversive or ‘progressive’ enough, at least in sexual-political terms.” An ambiguous contradiction similarly resonated with Willa Paskin in her blisteringly feminist, yet earnest critique of the HBO television series “True Detective.”

COURTESY OF INDIEWIRE

Andrew O’Hehir’s review of Gaspar Noé’s sexually explicit film “Love” attests to the film’s allure despite its many flaws. This form of sincere critiquing is greatly lacking in the reviewing industry.

“Presenting women as a parade of scolds, sluts, and the strung-out typically makes me hate a television series. But I love ‘True Detective,’” Paskin wrote. Paskin’s tolerant ode to the HBO series, not unlike O’Hehir’s valuation

of “Love,” seemed to echo a certain humility and authenticity that simply isn’t found in movie reviews anymore. There’s something to be said about having a voice that isn’t necessarily in lockstep with the overall

public perception on what is deemed tasteful and what isn’t. Movie goers have all liked bad movies from time to time. O’Hehir and Paskin’s comments reveal that it’s about time to not be ashamed of it.

HOROSCOPE Provided by: Tarot.com ARIES

(Mar. 21-Apr. 19)

All eyes are on you today because you can imagine the most amazing possibilities where everyone else only sees problems. Others flock to your positivity since they believe in your solutions and admire your confidence. Nevertheless, you can end up disappointing those you want to impress.

LEO

(Jul. 23 - Aug. 22)

You want to build a strategy for success around the practice of only stating the absolute truth. However, the Moon’s presence in your expressive sign encourages you to share your motivational message even if there isn’t an audience.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

You can’t seem to find the voice of your own logic today, or maybe you just choose to ignore it. You have a rather straightforward decision to make: pursue a pleasurable experience or work hard while delaying the fun for another day.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20 - May 20)

Your coworkers are more interested in playing around than being serious today and you don’t want to waste precious time participating in their games. Although you have a lot of obligations on your plate now, thankfully, you possess enough common sense to save your strength for when you will need it.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23 - Sep. 22)

Your organizational skills may be needed to bail someone out and you are happy to ride to the rescue today. You typically don’t mind working behind the scenes and you prefer total anonymity now with the Moon playing hideand-seek.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

You have your heart set on something special and you won’t let anyone deter you from your current destination. Perhaps you’ve been dreaming of a night out on the town or a weekend getaway.

GEMINI

(May 21 - Jul. 20)

Don’t panic about meeting everyone’s expectations today, since you won’t be able to reign in the energy of the lively Leo Moon as she drops by to make a scene in your 3rd House of Communication. Taking responsibility for your actions is one thing, but there are only so many variable.

LIBRA

(Sep. 23 - Oct. 22)

You’re longing to show off to the world today, and social gatherings can become your temporary stage of choice. Although you want to be applauded for your efforts, it’s still prudent to hold some energy.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

You may feel lucky to have such a loyal partner or playmate in your life, yet for some reason today it’s tricky to hold up your end of the deal. Instead of being attached to someone at the hip, you long for more personal freedom to move creatively on your own.

CANCER

(Jun. 21 - Jul. 22)

You could easily spend more money today than you expect, especially if you’re hosting a celebration of some sort. Naturally, you hope to make a good impression with the perfect set© thewordsearc ting and delicious refreshments, but others may be less concerned about the details than you are now.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

It’s a no-brainer to do what is expected when the rules and the limits are well-defined. However, there are so many fuzzy boundaries today that everything could get sloppy before you know it.

PISCES

(Feb. 20 - Mar. 20)

You might start the day with the intention to be serious-minded about your business, but you soon realize that having fun amplifies your creative expression. You may have to stand up to a naysayer who tries to restrict your freedom today. You plan on honoroing your promises but it’s not your job to placate others. VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

Women’s soccer set to defend title

Women’s soccer set for a semifinal clash with the Gauchos AARON VALDEZ Daily Titan

The Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer team starts its postseason journey in the Big West Conference Championship this Thursday against the UC Santa Barbara Gauchos. It was a big finish in the Big West Conference over the weekend as the Titans completed the regular season in a three-way tie for first place along with Santa Barbara and the Long Beach State 49ers. Fullerton fell to the Gauchos 1-0 last Thursday at Titan Stadium but went on to defeat Cal Poly San Luis Obispo 2-1 on the road. These results gave the Titans an overall record of 14-3-1 and a conference record of 6-2-0. The team earned its highest number of wins in a season, with 14, since the 2005 team that won a total of 19 games. Furthermore, the Titans have won a total of seven Big West

Conference regular season titles, according to Fullerton Athletics. The Titans, along with the rest of the top four teams in the Big West Conference, will compete in the Big West Conference Championship Tournament. These teams include UC Santa Barbara, Long Beach State and second place UC Riverside. Long Beach State is the No. 1 seed in the tournament as they hold the regular season tiebreaker over both the Titans and the Gauchos. The Gauchos are the No. 2, as they hold the tiebreaker over the Titans, leaving Fullerton with the No. 3 seed and UC Riverside with the No. 4 seed. First, the tournament will feature a semifinal round with the Titans taking on UCSB. Despite the Gauchos already taking the first meeting between the two sides by a narrow margin, the Titans are poised enough to learn from their mistakes and take their play to another level come game time.

playing at an elite level as she scored her 18th goal of the season this past weekend. She is ranked fourth in the entire nation for most goals this season. Junior goalkeeper

Jennifer Stuart will go into the semifinal looking to nab her 13th win on the year against the team that handed her her only loss. If the Titans win their semifinal, they will move

on to the tournament finals and play the winner of the Long Beach State and UC Riverside matchup. That game will take place on Sunday at 1 p.m. The tournament semifinals

Titans aim to dash away all Hope Titans will host the Royals in their last exhibition game RYAN PORTER Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton women’s basketball team will play its final game of the preseason Friday against Hope International University. The Titans opened the preseason term last Thursday

with an exhibition win over Cal State Los Angeles. The game finished with a tight scoreline, and CSUF will now look to play a tighter game against the neighboring Royals. CSUF freshman guard Michelle Berry led the Titans to their first exhibition win with 23 points, nine rebounds and three assists in 39 minutes of play. Redshirt senior center Karima Gabriel played 26 minutes and grabbed 10 rebounds.

Head Coach Daron Park said he is looking for Gabriel to anchor the team in the post and be a great option down low. The 6-foot-2 center was the second-most offensive threat for the Titans, scoring 13 points, seven of which were from the free-throw line. Further, she led the way for the Titans’ defense, recording one steal and the only three CSUF blocks. Junior guard Samantha Logan played the entire 40 minutes and was dominant under

the paint, getting 14 rebounds and scoring seven points of her own. Freshman guard Dani Craig also played the entire game and scored 10 points, even though she recorded a 15 percent shooting percentage. She landed 4-4 on free throws and hit two of the Titans’ four three-pointers. Freshman guard Jade Vega only scored two points, but was still an able player on the court, recording five rebounds and a steal.

Off the bench, freshman guard Lauren Nubla was the Titan assist leader with six assists in just 15 minutes of play. The only reserve to score was junior center Dhanyel Johnson, who scored both of her field goal attempts and retrieved three rebounds in just six minutes. As of now, the Titans only have three players on the bench, making for an eight-person team. The starters played the majority of the game, and the three reserves

only played 30 minutes collectively. As compared to the eightman squad Fullerton brought out for the game against CSULA, Hope International University mans an 18-person team. HIU finished the 2014-2015 season with an overall record of 17-15 and looks to be a threat with to multiple preseason recruitments. The Titans will tip off their last preseason game against HIU on Friday at Titan Gym.
