Professors take current Forum held to events into the classroom find EHS director

Candidate is an environmental health specialist SPENCER CUSTODIO Daily Titan

Professors use events to drive home lessons in the classroom ELAIZA ARMAS Daily Titan Incorporating attention to today’s race and other cultural identities has become a main priority to a growing number of professors,

according to a study on teaching race in college. Integrating issues that are going on in the world beyond institutional walls into course content has become increasingly important.

Challenging a student’s worldviews by bringing in a new perspective can make learning a risk, according to the study, “Lessons Learned: Teaching the Race Concept in the College Classroom,”

by Helen Cho, Ph.D., an

associate professor of anthropology at Davidson College.

However, professors at Cal State Fullerton have found ways to help students embrace change.

“Bringing in current events is a good way to think about what is constant, what has changed, what are the similarities, what are the differences between the past and the present,” said Adam Golub, Ph.D., associate professor of American studies at CSUF.

In humanities and liberal arts education at CSUF, Golub said, giving students the tools to interpret, think about and analyze the world around them, not just in the classroom, but outside, is a main area of focus.

When teaching his classes, John Ibson, Ph.D., professor of American studies, tries to be very global in his perspective to see the connections between our society and culture, and the society and

cultures of others, he said.

“No matter what the class is, I teach a dozen different classes, but I never want there to be a disconnect between what we deal with in the classroom and the world that my students find when they leave the classroom,” Ibson said. “We’re studying our own society and culture—it becomes one of the sources to talk about.”

The Environmental and Health Safety Department held an open forum Tuesday for a candidate vying for the director position.

John Beisner, executive director for risk management, said this is the first time the university is hiring externally for the position.

The candidate for director, Daniel Phillips, is employed by Long Beach city as an environmental health specialist.

Phillips is responsible for coordinating all hazardous material cleanups in the City of Long Beach, he said.

A Daily Titan photographer was intercepted at the open forum by Beisner, who cited a directive from Christopher Bugbee, a Cal State Fullerton media relations officer.

Beisner stated that, per the directive he said he received, the photographer would be allowed to attend the forum and take photographs, but the Strategic Communications department would be allowed to determine which photographs would be allowed to print.

By the time the issue was resolved, the forum was over and the photographer was unable to take any photographs.

Bugbee, however, denied knowledge of any such directive.

Student group wins tech competition Offensive Security Club takes first in computer forensics DARLENE CASAS Daily Titan Cal State Fullerton’s Offensive Security Society won first place in the Computer Forensics category at Cal Poly Pomona’s Information Technology Competition Saturday.

This is the first time the members competed as a group after launching their club last semester.

During the 19th annual Cal Poly Pomona’s Information Technology Competition, teams competed under any of the competition’s four categories–Computer Forensics, Telecommunications, Business Systems Analysis or Web Applications Development.

The Offensive Security Society team consisted of four members, Chris Garcia, Patrick Simpelo, Frida Kiriakos and Jacob Pillai.

The team competed against five other computer forensic teams, one from USC, three from Cal

Poly Pomona and one from Cal State San Bernardino. Teams were allowed to have a minimum of two members and a maximum of four.

A week before the competition deadline, the team received the materials for their case on a USB drive, said Patrick Simpelo, fourth year computer science major.

The team used software to extract data from the drive, and then used that data to solve a mock crime, Simpelo said.

The hypothetical case centered on a man who committed numerous petty thefts using information and data from old computers, Simpelo said.

In the situation provided for this year’s competition, the man’s former crime partner then accuses the man of trying to murder him, he added.

The team was given a week to do forensics and compile a report on this case.

The main part of the competition was the report and presentation of their crime analysis.

Nobel prize winner to speak SPENCER CUSTODIO Daily Titan The 1992 Nobel Peace Prize recipient Rigoberta Menchú will be speaking at the Titan Gym from 6 to 7:30 p.m. as the keynote speaker for the Chicana and Chicano Resource Center’s afternoon-long event.

The event, “Bringing Back Community Voice in Service Professions: Lessons From Cesar Chavez,” will have Menchú and other individuals host activities throughout the day in the Pollak Library.

Menchú was born in Guatemala in 1959 and came from a Guatemalan-Indian peasant family., according to the Nobel Prize website.

In her early life, she helped her family with farm work and, as a teenager, became involved in social reform

through the Catholic Church, according to the site. Today she is a prominent influence in women’s rights, according to the Nobel Prize website.

The activism of Menchú and her family led to persecution by the Guatemalan military, and her father was accused of guerrilla activities and died in a fire while protesting human rights abuse by the government, according to the Mayan Renaissance website.

Menchú’s brother was kidnapped, tortured and killed by a Guatemalan government death squad in 1979 and her mother was raped and killed by a death squad the following year, according to Voices from the Gaps, a program at the University of Michigan recognizing achievements of minority women.

In 1981, she fled to Mexico and soon joined international effort to stop the Guatemalan government’s brutalities against the Guatemalan-Indian peasants, according to the Voices from the Gap site.

When Michael Brown— an unarmed black teenager—was shot by a police officer a grand jury ultimately decided not to indict, Ibson knew he had to find a way to discuss the topic in class in a way students could understand, he said.

“One thing we really try to do in American Studies is see the larger picture; to put things in a broad perspective so that we see the history of this (and) what other things is this connected to,” Ibson said.

Ibson would start small, beginning his Prejudice in America class by talking about some ways people mistreat others on a day-today basis, he said.

Students would then write down a time they have mistreated another, or a time when they have acted on their prejudice, on a piece of paper anonymously, he said.

“It’s difficult to get people to be open and honest about that, so we have to do it anonymously where I’ll just have people to write down things that they’ve done without signing their name to it and then we’ll just read them and talk about that in class,” Ibson said.

Whether they know it or not, a traditional 17 or 18-year-old college freshman enters their first year of college with deeply embedded ideologies and paradigms, including racial stereotypes, according to the study, and through the open discussion, students would see that everyone is equally capable of committing a prejudice act, Ibson said.

“

Bringing in current events is a good way to think about what is constant, what has changed, what are the similarities, what are the differences between the past and present.

“

Presentation will be keynote of resource center event

DTBRIEFS

ADAM GOLUB Associate professor of American Studies “My approach to prejudice is that we’re all capable of it—it’s an equal opportunity employer,” Ibson said.

Donald Matthewson, Ph.D., professor of political philosophy, said he believes it all boils down to the importance of face-to-face

communication and helping students understand why they would choose to be virtuous—even when no one is watching.

“It’s from the recognition of another person’s identity that we have an ethical impulse. If I see you, then I’m going to think about maybe the right thing to do,” Matthewson said.

Part of the development of human beings ethical behavior is face-to-face contact, Matthewson said.

If people continue to remove themselves from this contact, they will become less ethical and less likely to put themselves in others shoes, he said.

“When you can’t be seen, when you’re not facing the person face-to-face, then you can do things that aren’t so nice,” Matthewson said. “That is a problem.”

For Matthewson, it is not important what students learn in college but what their development as people is, he said.

“The only reason you’re coming here and paying this tuition is so that you can have face-to-face contact with professors and other students, because then you can develop a greater sense of who you are in relation to other people,” Matthewson said.

Jarret Stoll, Los Angeles Kings’ center, was arrested on a felony drug charge Friday afternoon in Las Vegas during a routine search at the MGM Grand pool complex, according to the Orange County Register.

Security guards found approximately 3.3 grams of cocaine and several capsules, thought to be MDMA, in Stoll’s swimsuit pockets. Both substances are being tested by police investigators and have an estimated value of $600.

Stoll was released without posting bail late Friday night from the Clark County jail in Las Vegas. He is scheduled to a July 1 court date, the same day his contract ends with the Kings.

Toxicology results are still being processed and could take several weeks to be completed.

S.C. teen attempted to join ISIS An unidentified 16-year-old was charged and sentenced Tuesday for possession of a pistol as a minor and plotting to join ISIS on Tuesday in York County, South Carolina, according to a CBS outlet.

He was initially arrested in February at the Department of Juvenile Justice on suspicion of the above convictions.

The teen said he had the gun to protect family after his father passed away, but later rescinded his story.

He and a mentor, a Raleigh man referred to as Mohammad, conspired to rob a local gun store and use the merchandise to attack U.S. soldiers at a military base.

Protestors rally after Gray death Demonstrators rallied in Baltimore Tuesday after the names of six police officers involved in the arrest of Freddie Gray were released, CNN reported.

Gray died Sunday of a spinal injury, one week after he was arrested. A video shows Gray during the arrest, screaming as police take him into a van.

An autopsy has yet to yield any answers in Gray’s death, and the Justice Department has begun looking into whether a civil rights violation occurred in the case.

The Baltimore Police Department officers have been suspended with pay. Three of them initially approached Gray on bicycles. Another officer made eye contact with Gray, another drove the police van and the last joined the arrest after it was initiated.

On Saturday, the team presented their findings and analysis at Cal Poly Pomona and won their $1,000 first place prize.

Along with the opportunity to compete, teams are able to network with professionals in the field.

Chris Garcia, a computer

engineering major and computer science minor, was the team leader and president of the club. Throughout the year, he helped organize forensic workshops for club members, Simpelo said.

Offensive Society Security members have a shared interest in cyber security, said Frida Kiriakos, team member and computer science

graduate student. They are able to learn more about the field through workshops, professional expertise and by participating in conferences and competitions, she said.

The team accidentally began the project later than the other teams but managed to win despite their late start, Simpelo said.

“I was really, really happy because we put so much work, so much sweat, tears; we worked hard and after we presented we felt really good about it and it was up to the point where we said, ‘if we don’t get first place we did the best we have ever done,’” Simpelo said.

Jacob Pillai, a senior computer science major, said he

hopes to coach the Offensive Security Society team for next year’s competition.

Kiriakos was encouraged to join the club after speaking to club advisor, professor Mikhail Gofman. Despite feeling nervous, Kiriakos felt confident about her team’s work in the competition, she said.

“I felt really happy and

proud, I was almost jumping while walking on the stage to receive our certificates,” Kiriakos said. “It was an amazing feeling of accomplishment after all the hard work we put into this competition.”

Simpelo hopes the club’s win will encourage more students to join the Offensive Security Society, he said.

He responds personally to about 30 percent of calls for a cleanup, he said. He added that he has responded to a wide variety of incidents, including one at a makeshift PCP lab.

If the hazardous material incidents are too big, he said, the city has to call an outside contractor and coordinate the cleanup with them.

Phillips is no stranger to root-cause analysis regarding investigations, he said.

“Any sort of accident investigation I’ve ever done involved a root-cause analysis,” Phillips said. “You go in and just keep on peeling the onion until you find the core issue that caused the problem. I’m very familiar with that process and I still do it today.”

The biggest area of concern in a college setting is the university’s academic labs, because numerous chemicals are used in those labs, he said.

Phillips has not only

focused his efforts on determining what causes accidents, but has also had experience training individuals to prevent them in the first place.

“

Any sort of accident investigation I’ve ever done involved root-cause analysis ... I’m familiar with that process and I still do it today.

Phillips gave a presentation on common household cleaners and other materials that many people don’t realize are hazardous materials.

He gave some quick facts from the Environmental Protection Agency, including that a person generates four pounds of hazardous waste a year, which amounts to 530,000 tons a year in the United States.

Many common household items are hazardous but aren’t immediately thought about as hazardous materials, he said, including stain-resistant clothing, deteriorating lacquered wood structures, older thermostats that use mercury and various cleaners.

He said that people should make sure to read the labels on their household products to see if they’re hazardous or not and that they will also give instructions on how to properly dispose of the materials.

ASI to host L.A.-based comedienne

Award winning comic Lauren Ashley Bishop to perform at CSUF DEANNA GOMEZ Daily Titan

One of Huffington Post’s “Funniest Women on Twitter” is coming to the Cal State Fullerton Housing Piazza Sunday.

Comedienne Lauren Ashley Bishop will perform Sunday from 5-6 p.m.

Bishop is the third comic to be brought to campus

by Associated Students, Inc. this semester in an attempt to keep things new and fresh. The Sunday Funday Comedy series previously hosted comedians Jonny Loquasto and Jenny Zigrino. Like Loquasto and Zigrino, Bishop is an artist represented by the talent agency Joey Edmonds Presents.

A graduate of Northwestern University and sworn puppy lover, Bishop is originally from the famed city of Little Rock, Arkansas. Now living in Los Angeles, Bishop tours college campuses and venues across the U.S. to “comede all over,” according to her Tumblr.

Bishop is not new to the stage. She has performed in a number of plays, and commercials. She has been in productions like Second City’s Romeo & Juliet Musical at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater and has even performed at The Apollo Theater as she played a role in Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues.

Some people may recognize Bishop from a few commercials she has starred in like “Popeye’s Mama Slap Chicken”, or from her appearances on comedy shows like Tosh.0.

In 2007 she won a Webby Award for her spot on KFC’s, ChooseYourSauce. com.

More than all of the experience she has on stage, Bishop is most well known for her Twitter, where she has over 48,000 followers, and is a regular contributor to Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update segment.

She is also a regular on the NitTWITS sketch comedy web-series on YouTube.

To stay up to date with all of Bishops latest tweets and shows, check her out on twitter at @sbellelauren.

Like the comedy shows on campus before, the event is free to all attendees.

Ruthless is a musical about a vicious young girl bent on getting the lead part in the school play, and is willing to do anything to get it. The show opens at the Grand Central Art Center on Friday.

Ruthless to open at Grand Central Friday JUSTIN PATUANO Daily Titan An elementary school student wants to play the lead in a school play so badly that she is willing to do the unthinkable in order for it to happen in the musical Ruthless, opening Friday at the Grand Central Art Center.

The show is directed by adjunct Cal State Fullerton faculty member Craig Tyrl.

“Ruthless is a musical farce,” Tyrl said.

Music featured in the musical is by Marvin Laird, and the book and lyrics are

by Joel Paley.

Lacey Beegun plays the crazed Tina Denmark and is joined by Taylor Hartsfield as Judy Denmark,

Mitchell Turner as Sylvia St. Croix and Elizabeth Campbell as Louise Lerman/Eve. Ruthless is “malicious, delicious (and) a total joy,” Film Critic Rex Reed said.

The musical features an outrageous plot, highly improbable situations, outrageous characters and “just over the top silly can’t,” Tyrl said.

The cast for Ruthless is a mixture of Bachelor of Fine Arts musical theater juniors and seniors, who have been rehearsing for the last six weeks.

Other cast members include Elyssa Alexander as Miss Thorn and Miss Block, and Kellianne Safarik as Lita Encore.

The plot is derived from three movies made in the 1950s and ‘60s: The Bad Seed, All About Eve and Gypsy.

“We are exuberantly silly and are eager for an audience,” Tyrl said. “These are incredibly funny actors.”

Local band to rock the Becker Becker Amphitheater to host Costa Mesa band Roah Summit CECILY MEZA Daily Titan Cal State Fullerton’s Associated Students, Inc. Productions will be presenting Roah Summit Wednesday at noon at the Becker Amphitheater.

Roah Summit is a local band that was formed by a group of friends from Costa Mesa who all shared an interest in music.

After a year in the studio, the band released their first EP, Deep Bloom, in September of last year.

The six-member band came together after a few of the members within the band began collaborating on different projects, Roah Summit said in a Concert Live Guide interview.

“

Live Guide interview.

The formation of the band came naturally for the group, who have been playing shows throughout the LA area since the release of Deep Bloom.

The band shot their first music video in January for their song Secrets, and have also began writing and getting ready for its first full length album.

Lead singer, Jake Berry, had written music with bandmate Drew Chaffee before forming the band. Berry also had been the art director for bandmate Kevin Clark’s first film, which ultimately led to the bands formation, according to the Concert

The Clayes Performing Arts Center Recital Hall will host the music event, Cello Voce, from Cal State Fullerton’s Cello Choir on Friday at 8 p.m.

The concert is directed by professor of cello and assistant director of the School of Music, Bongshin Ko. Ko has performed at festivals across the world and has received over 30 international music awards.

She is a founder and a director of the CSUF’s annual CelloFest and Cello Choir, according to the School of Music website.

The Korean native has taught master classes at prestigious universities, including Juilliard School, München Music School and Seoul National University.

The guys still get together a few times a week to practice or compose music.

However, the band members are constantly around each other anyways since half of them live together, according to the Concert Live Guide interview.

Deep Bloom, brings a quiet intensity sound with a mix of grace, which is the opposite of what one would think with six individuals involved with the project, according to a review on the WXPN radio website.

When it came to developing their EP, it was a very long process, according to the Concert Live Guide interview with the band.

The band spent over a year finding their musical identity and and finding their own sound.

The band completely re-recorded one of their EP songs, which in the end was a smooth process thanks to the talents of musicians and producers involved with the project.

The band shot their first music video in January for their song Secrets, and have also began writing and getting ready for its first full length album. Fans can expect the release of the new album this summer, according to the Concert Live Guide interview.

Roah Summit will be performing at the Becker Amphitheater Wednesday at noon and will be performing in their hometown of Costa Mesa April 30 at the Maison.

OPINION

Schools should use podcasts Medium offers accessibility and low production costs MEGAN MENDIBLES Daily Titan Podcasts are becoming more prevalent as time goes on. A few years back, it was a fledgling medium, now many people in the media are launching their own podcasts.

The most recent podcast phenomenon drew over a million listeners per episode, according to the Columbia Journalism Review.

If you asked someone in late 2014 if they were enjoying their morning Serial, they’d probably say yes, but they wouldn’t be talking about their breakfast.

For season one, Serial took an old, closed 1999 murder case and broke it wide open with a new attack on investigative journalism led by Sarah Koenig, executive producer and host of the podcast, as noted on the Serial website.

Koenig led listeners into the addicting world of podcasts. Every episode left listeners with a cliffhanger, forcing them to continue on the mysterious journey

unfolding before them until they were dropped off at a dead end.

Through the podcast, Koenig showed journalists that investigative journalism can be consumed by an audience in a step by step process through a new medium, as opposed to an audience reading a summed up story with a perfectly tied up ending.

While not every podcast has seen or will see the same level of success, the message is clear, this medium has the potential to reach a lot of people, and the barrier to entry is relatively low.

Podcast’s “low production costs, super-high audience engagement, and the seamless fit with an increasingly mobile, on-demand media world” helped make Serial, and podcasts in general, the breakout stars of 2014, according to the Columbia Journalism Review.

Low production costs, high audience engagement and a mobile-friendly medium are all traits that would benefit a tool for learning.

While the most popular apps predominantly deal with entertainment, using them for education seems like an almost obvious choice.

Podcasts built for learning already exist, but there needs to be a bigger push to

In 2014, podcast shows saw a boom in listeners and have continued that rapid growth. The subjects of the shows range from investigative journalism reports to light, comedic entertainment. Starting one is simple, but listening is even simpler.

create more podcasts that will help supplement student education.

“Examining Motives of Podcast Users,” a study done in 2010 by The Journal of

Radio and Audio Media, noted that entertainment and accessibility entices new podcast listeners.

Downloading a podcast is as easy as tapping a button

on a screen, and once a person downloads a podcast, he or she can listen to it anytime they want to.

If podcasts gain traction in schools and begin

being used as tools for learning, student’s won’t be constrained by their busy schedules or location, they’ll be able to learn at anytime or anywhere.

Letter to the Editor FROM NATE HONEYCUTT AND LOGAN HONEYCUTT Cal State University Executive Order 1068, a seemingly harmless document that when enforced as official CSU policy has brought nothing but despair, frustration and isolation to many venerated student organizations affiliated with CSU campuses.

CSU Executive Order 1068, signed into policy December 2011 and brought into full implementation Summer 2014, mandates that the leadership and membership in every CSU campus-affiliated student organization be open to all students.

The implementation and strict enforcement of this policy seems to be yet another piece in the vast array of “diversity-driven” initiatives by the CSU, seeking to root out discrimination and promote inclusivity.

Yet despite what we hypothesize to be the CSU Administration’s goals via this initiative, this policy seems to be doing just the opposite.

This policy is wreaking havoc as many student organizations are being forced to choose between compromising the values and beliefs of their group to maintain campus recognition, or stand firm and be derecognized.

This policy is promoting diversity within student groups instead of protecting diversity among student groups.

It is optimistic to think that no issues will occur because of Executive Order 1068, but with today’s politically charged climate, combined with the fondness college students often have for rabble-rousing, it would be naïve to think students won’t attempt to infiltrate, disrupt and potentially take over rival or opposing groups—then there comes funding and fundraising.

Many student organizations rely on the financial support of donors sympathetic to their cause.

If clubs cannot assure that the mission and integrity of their group can be protected, how can donors be assured that their financial support will be used as intended? Executive Order 1068 creates a litany of unnecessary problems for student groups,

and inappropriately targets and essentially discriminates against many who hold to fervent ideologies and beliefs (e.g. religious clubs, political clubs, etc).

Despite the significant problems created by Executive Order 1068, CSU Administrators have stood in staunch support with unwavering commitment. CSU Administrators claim that this policy is mandated by state law, or is a part of a state law that has been around for decades. This line is a part of the talking points of nearly every statement on this issue from campus or system wide administrators, but it simply is not true.

There is no state or federal law, or court decision that mandates the CSU enact and enforce an “all-comers” policy or any variation thereof. While anti-discrimination policies have been around for decades to prevent discrimination against protected classes (such as race, ethnicity, gender, etc.) they do not provide legal support for the new mandates created by Executive Order 1068. A Supreme Court decision states that “all-comers” policies are allowed, but does not state that they are required, desirable, effective or even practical, simply because they aren’t.

Supporters of Executive Order 1068 frequently claim that public funding and campus resources should not go to clubs with restrictive policies, but this argument is a red herring.

If CSU campuses decide to fund student groups and make campus resources (e.g. meeting rooms) available to them, the campus cannot then decide what viewpoints they agree or don’t agree with and correspondingly who should or shouldn’t be entitled to these benefits.

Campuses must extend these benefits to everyone or to no one, and therein a diversity of ideas is promoted. Universities do not become more diverse or inclusive by discriminating against some groups because of the restrictions they wish to impose on those who have freely decided to become leaders in the group.

CSU Student Organization for Free Association has been working to raise awareness about this issue. We are founded on the premise of restoring the First Amendment principle of freedom of association to CSU campuses. By uniting student groups and other concerned individuals, we hope to advocate with a strong and united voice to get things back to how they used to be.

With CSU Administrators refusing to budge or compromise on this issue, some have taken the next steps of action. CSU Student Organization for Free Association recently endorsed the Student Freedom of Association Act, AB 1212, introduced by Shannon Grove in the California State Assembly.

This legislation is a positive step toward protecting student organizations on public university campuses in California.

If passed, this legislation would mandate the CSU eliminate their policy, and forbid a similar policy from being created in the University of California or California Community College system.

Many other states have been successful in passing similar legislation, so we are hopeful California will be successful as well, and in turn become a national leader on this issue. A hearing on this legislation has been scheduled for April 21, 2015.

We hope you may be willing to take action on this issue, possibly by joining the CSU Student Organization for Free Association coalition and/or by expressing support for AB 1212.

We need support from you and the student organizations you, your friends and your colleagues are a part of so that when we speak out, our voice is stronger because of those we represent. Individually we can try to make progress on this issue, but together we have the potential to make even greater strides.

Help us protect the rights and existence of many well-established student groups as we try to get the CSU back on track toward truly being a student-focused leader in higher education.

MATT CORKILL / DAILY TITAN FILE PHOTO

Cal State Fullerton baseball has been on a season-long, nine-game road trip, facing powerhouse teams such as No. 2 UCLA and No. 21 Maryland. The Titans will wrap up the road trip Wednesday at Hardt Field when they face the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners. Fullerton looks to sweep Bakersfield after dominating the Roadrunners 11-0 in their March 14 matchup at Goodwin Field.

Titans looking to bounce back CSUF baseball is seeking sweep of Cal State Bakersfield EVAN LANCASTER Daily Titan After a trip to the East Coast, the Cal State Fullerton baseball team returns to California to take on the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners in a non-conference clash at Hardt Field.

Fullerton (20-18 overall, 6-3 Big West) will enter Wednesday’s match having lost three of their last

four games, but the Titans are currently on a grueling nine-game road trip that included tough opponents such as No. 3 UCLA and No. 21 Maryland.

The Titans fell 7-2 to UCLA and lost two of three games against Maryland last week, so the Titans are looking to bounce back against the Roadrunners.

The Roadrunners (22-15-1 overall, 10-4-1 WAC), however, will be a tough opponent for the Titans considering the Roadrunners’ 11-7 home record, while the Titans will look to improve on their 8-11 road record. The Roadrunners

will come into Wednesday’s matchup with momentum, winning nine of 10 games— four of which came at home.

The Roadrunners will look to use their home field advantage to enact revenge on CSUF after suffering an 11-0 road loss to the Titans on March 18 at Goodwin Field.

In the March 18 meeting, the Titans’ pitching was stellar, with right-hander Connor Seabold carrying the brunt of the weight. The freshman only gave up two hits and struck out six in his 5.2 innings of work. The Titan bullpen continued to deliver after Seabold’s outing, giving up

only two hits in 3.1 shutout innings.

The Titans have yet to announce Wednesday’s starter, but it is expected to be a staff day as is the case with all midweek games.

Fullerton will want to reignite their offense by looking to juniors Tyler Stieb and David Olmedo-Barrera. Stieb’s .389 on-base percentage pairs nicely with Olmedo-Barrera’s team-high 27 runs batted in. The Titans have additional reinforcement with first baseman Josh Estill, who is leading the ballclub with five home runs and boasts a .457 slugging percentage in 127

plate appearances.

The Roadrunners will save their right-handed aces Hayden Carter and James Barragan for later in the week in a three-game series against Seattle, the WAC’s top ballclub.

Right-hander Steve Gee (2.54 ERA) will take the mound Wednesday for Bakersfield. Gee has 30 strikeouts over 46 innings pitched.

For the CSUB offensive, David Metzgar will be a tough out for the Titans as the second baseman leads the Roadrunners with a .376 batting average, 23 RBIs and 30 runs scored. Metzgar has

plenty of support from his teammates, including left fielder Ryan Grotjohn, who is batting .325 to go along with his three home runs and 18 RBIs. With both the Titans and Roadrunners coming off a loss, both teams should look to get ahead early. The Titans may look to capitalize on the Roadrunners’ less experienced pitching staff. While the Roadrunners’ home field advantage might prove useful in preventing another loss to the Titans, Fullerton will look to sweep Bakersfield.

First pitch at Hardt Field will be at 6 p.m.

Women’s golf takes sixth at Big West Tourney Titans stay put in final day as Abrea and Mier finish CSUF careers TAMEEM SERAJ Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton women’s golf team concluded its 2015 season in sixth place at the Big West Championships Tuesday at the El Macero Country Club. The Titans also had two representatives in the Big West All-Conference Team.

The Titans entered Tuesday’s final round in sixth place, but were unable to move up the leaderboards after shooting a 17-over 305 on the day.

The only movement in day three came from Long

Beach State as the 49ers made up five strokes to tie UC Riverside for third place at 42-over 906.

UC Davis once again ran away from the competition to claim their sixth consecutive conference championship. The Aggies collectively shot a six-under 858 for the tournament, 29 strokes better than second place Hawaii (23-over 887) and 59 strokes better than CSUF (53-over 917).

On the individual side, Davis’ Andrea Wong captured first place with an impressive eight-under 208 for the tournament. Davis dominated the individual leaderboard, placing in four of the top five spots.

Hawaii’s Raquel Ek trailed Wong by just one stroke heading into Tuesday, but

ended up finishing five strokes behind Wong in second place.

Defending champion Martina Edberg continued to pace the Titans in the final round. Although Edberg had her worst round on Tuesday (five-over 77), the sophomore still scored the highest finish among the Titans (12th) with a score of nine-over 225. After another impressive campaign that included a win at the Juli Inkster Spartan Invitational, the Swedish native was named to her second straight All-Conference First Team Tuesday.

Brittany Farrell was the second-best finisher for the Titans with a total score of 11-over 227. The freshman got better with each round.

After carding a six-over 78

in the first round, Farrell followed up with a four-over 76 and finished with a oneover 73 on Tuesday to jump nine spots into a tie for 14th place.

Senior Makayla Mier also moved up the leaderboard on the final day. The Righetti High School product carded a three-over 75 on Tuesday to jump eight spots into a four-way tie for 22nd place. Mier ended the tournament with a 16-over 232.

Nadine Rivera, however, took a backstep in her final round. After her even-par 72 second round boosted her into 23rd, the junior struggled in the final round with a 13-over 85 and dropped down to 36th. Rivera finished the tournament with a 23-over 239.

Graphic Designers

Wanted Work for the Daily Titan’s production team in advertising

Senior Tisha Alyn Abrea was off her game all weekend, carding scores in the 80s in every round. Abrea finished strong with a eight-over 80, but it wasn’t enough to avoid finishing last in the tournament. Despite her 34-over 250 in her final tournament as a Titan, Abrea still earned an honorable mention on the All-Conference team due in large part to her win at the Rose City Collegiate earlier this season.

CSUF bids farewell to two seniors after the tournament. The Titans will miss the production from Abrea and Mier next season, but Fullerton will be welcoming back two talented young stars in Edberg and Farrell.

The future looks bright for the Titans.
