Men’s soccer shows no signs of slowing down

The CSUF men’s soccer team are finally gelling. The Titans squad put an offensive clinic in a 3-0 shutout win against the University of San Francisco. They have now won three games in a row.
Titans make it 3 wins in a row against USF Dons RUDY CHINCHILLA Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team made its third consecutive win after defeating the San Francisco Dons Sunday at Titan Stadium.
On a 90 degree afternoon, the Titans recovered from a sluggish start to come away with a 3-0 victory and move their regular season record to 3-2-0. Fullerton head coach George Kuntz fielded a formation resembling a 4-2-3-1 at times, and a 4-4-2 diamond with a withdrawn striker at others. Robert Coronado, who played as a central midfielder last season, offered little going forward on the left
wing. Left-back Carlos Troncoso, too, rarely made any darts into the opponents’ final third. Ronaldo Pineda offered some creativity in the center, but the Titans were playing narrow soccer. “I think that the midfielders that we have this year are not necessarily ‘get behind’ type wide players; if they have the opportunity to come inside, they’ll come inside and look for the ball,” Kuntz said. The wingers’ defensive
focus indicated that Fullerton managed to monopolize possession, but had a hard time creating any clear-cut chances. San Francisco, meanwhile, also did little going forward. Only until the ninth minute did CSUF manage to truly trouble the San Francisco backline. Right-back Ricardo Covarrubias played a ball over the top to Pineda, who managed to chest the ball down on the 18-yard line to an oncoming
Diego Sanchez. Sanchez, however, scuffed his shot wide of the net. The breakthrough finally came in the 14th minute, courtesy of a spectacular strike from Sanchez. On the right, Nicolo D’Amato chipped a rebound into the penalty spot; Sanchez side volleyed the pass past the outstreched fingertips of Dons goalkeeper Andre Glasnovic and into the far post.

Simulated struggle at CSUF School of Nursing held first-ever Poverty Simulation BOBBIE URTEZ Daily Titan Cal State Fullerton’s School of Nursing hosted its first Poverty Simulation in the Titan Student Union Saturday to help students understand the day-to-day realities of impoverished living. The simulation aimed to help nursing students enrolled in a Community Health Nursing course gain a better understanding of the types of patients they will encounter throughout their career. That the class is divided into two parts: a laboratory course, followed by field training where students are split up into different groups,
nursing student Mayra Hernandez, said She added that the groups partnered with county governments to assess family situations and identify which types of assistance they need. “This is not a game. This is a simulation,” said Maria Matza, a Community Health Resource faculty member, to a pavilion filled with nursing students. The students were sectioned into groups. Each group formed a “family” and each family lived out a “month” in poverty. Each situation included a limited or fixed income and a family predicament; difficulties within each family varied. The issues included expulsion, teen pregnancy, dropping out of high school, gang affiliations and imprisoned family members. SEE POVERTY

A student receives the bad news of being robbed during the simulation. The scenario helped to put students in the shoes of people living in day-to-day poverty.
While sipping a cold glass of Coronado’s 19th Anniversary Imperial IPA, Fullerton resident Rebecca Ressler, recounted how she became a Pizza Press regular. “Pizza Press actually holds up the next day,” Ressler said. Ressler made a point that not all guests finish an entire pizza at once and typically leave with leftovers. In her experience with other artisan pizza restaurants, she noticed the dough became stiff and tough the next day, unlike the Pizza Press’ dough. Fullerton now has its very own Pizza Press after the grand opening on Saturday, Sept. 12th, in the space formerly occupied by Jay’s Coffee and Waffles across Cal State Fullerton on Nutwood Avenue. Local pizza lovers came to check out the new eatery, enjoying flavorful pizza and divine craft beer. The Fullerton location, owned by Danny Hon, is the third Pizza Press location and first franchise for the company. The original store was founded in 2012, located across Disneyland Park. The second location opened in March 2015 in Old Towne Orange, both under ownership of founder Dara Maleki. Hon, a Fullerton native, met Maleki two years ago in his former business importing customized disposable soda cups to Pizza Press and other local business chains. Once Hon heard Maleki’s concept of taking two of the biggest, trendiest markets and merging them, he wanted in. Maleki’s vision was to stand out from competitors, so he took the build-yourown-pizza craze and paired it with craft beer, taking things to a whole new level. With this innovative idea, Maleki created a go-to pizza place by doing something different while everyone else was doing the same thing, Hon said. The Pizza Press offers a fun and lively atmosphere as soon as patrons walk in. Throughout the restaurant, there are photos of printing press machinery, old printing shops and paperboys. SEE PIZZA
