Local leaders concerned with homeless shelters

The end of an era for local jazz club Steamers leaves behind decades of iconic history MAHDEE GILL Daily Titan

BREANNA VASQUEZ / DAILY TITAN

Four officials discussed the homelessness issue in Orange County Monday. Around 100 people attended the event at the Fullerton Public Library. The meeting addressed the placement and implementation of homeless shelters, as well as past treatment of homeless individuals in Fullerton.

Issues from citizens addressed at panel discussion BREANNA VASQUEZ Daily Titan About 100 people turned out for a public forum Monday night at the Fullerton Public Library where a

panel of local officials discussed Fullerton’s homelessness issue. The panel consisted of Shawn Nelson, Orange County supervisor of the Fourth District; former Fullerton Mayor and Assemblywoman Sharon Quirk-Silva, Fullerton police Cpl. Michael McCaskill of the Homeless Liaison Unit and Maria Mazzenga Avellaneda, executive director of

the nonprofit Pathways of Hope. There are currently 4,452 nightly homeless individuals across the county, a 5 percent increase since 2013, according to the 2015 survey by the Orange County Commission to End Homelessness. The City of Fullerton has yet to implement a yearround shelter to house the transient population, but it

has taken steps to move forward by approving a zoning ordinance dated Aug. 18 that would allow for such a shelter. “I really am embarrassed, that at this point in my tenure, we don’t already have a facility,” Nelson said. “It’s complicated, but it can be fairly simple.” Council and community members have opposed prior plans to build a shelter

in the city. Some who claim to be proponents quickly buckle when they find out the proposed site is close to them, Nelson said. Although Nelson believes the proposed full-time shelter at 1000 N. Kraemer Place is “a little off the beaten path,” he does believe the city will go forward with the site. SEE HOMELESS

ASI promotes voter registration ASI Lobby Corps bring awareness to potential voters GRAHAM MCTAGUE Daily Titan Students gathered in the central quad Tuesday for an event held by Associated Students Inc. celebrating National Voter Registration Day. “We really want the students to feel like they have a voice and feel like it’s important and heard,” said Veronica Kdeiss, strategic coordinator for Lobby Corps. “One way to do that is registering them to vote and also informing them why it’s important to be a registered voter,” she said. “A lot of students are not registered to vote because they think their vote doesn’t matter, or maybe they just never had the opportunity,” Kdeiss said.

Students might also not know where to go or how to register, Kdeiss said. “Every student’s vote counts, their voice counts,” she said. In the 2014 election, a mere 38.3 percent of West Coast Americans ages 18 to 24 reported being registered to vote, according the the United States Census Bureau. This is significantly lower than the next age demographic, 25 to 44, which tallied a 56.5 percent registration rate. On a larger scale, 18- to 24-year-olds ranked the lowest in total registered voter percentages across all regions of the United States; only 13.9 percent of registered voters in that age range voted in 2014, according to the bureau. The Lobby Corps event not only promoted voter registration to students, but also encouraged them to voice their opinions by writing about their passions on a poster. SEE VOTER

After entertaining audiences for over 21 years, the historic Steamers Jazz Club and Café in downtown Fullerton has officially closed. Although many may lament the loss of Fullerton’s only jazz venue, there is a plan to keep the music alive. Evans Brewery Co. is in the process of replacing Steamers. It’s a modern gastropub that will offer music of various genres and continue to maintain the influence of jazz in their lineup. “We’ve always talked about still doing some jazz … but also bringing in some rock ‘n’ roll bands, classic rock bands and country bands,” said Evan Rapport, owner of Evans Brewing Co. There’s a promising chance that musicians who have previously played at Steamers will continue to make appearances in the future at Evans Brewery. Its management has reached out to numerous bands and talent who have performed on the stage of the historic venue. “We have a list of the people who have played here and we have sent out letters to all of them that we’re still interested in playing jazz music,” Rapport said. Despite the closing of Steamers, there are artists who continue to practice, play and pursue the art of jazz. “My aspirations are to complete my bachelor’s in music education and to get a credential so I can teach K-12, and then focus on getting a position to teach at a local school,” said Steve Layton, trombonist and Cal State Fullerton education major. When considering what can be done to preserve jazz in Orange County, several factors could improve the likelihood of this endeavor, Layton said. “We have to educate the audience. The musicians need to forge new frontiers and get some new clubs started...the music programs in schools are being gutted,” Layton said. While some artists may have never played at Steamers, others can recall the lessons they learned while performing there. SEE JAZZ 5

“One of the things we’re really focusing on this year in Lobby Corps is the students,” Kdeiss said. “We want to know what they care about.” While some students wrote about their extracurricular interests, like film or travel, some expressed their passion

for the vote. “I want to be a consistent voter,” said Hailey Pietz, theater major. “I’m most interested in education and healthcare.” Students were also invited to snap a picture with school mascot Tuffy or grab a slice of pizza at the event. Volunteers, celebrities and

nonprofits organize events across the country to celebrate National Voter Registration Day in hopes that unregistered voters would register and make their voices heard. For those who were unable to attend the event on campus, voter registration is also available on the National Voter Registration Day website.

The CSUF Study Abroad office will hold two fairs this week to showcase opportunities for students to expand their educational experience overseas.

Study Abroad fairs to be held this week Two fairs will be held to expose students to opportunities abroad JENNIE VU Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton Study Abroad Program will host two fairs this week to showcase international opportunities available to students. A small fair will take place Sept. 23 at 11 a.m. in front of the Gastronome. The main target for the “mini fair” will be first year students, said Jack Hobson, director of the program. “We really wanted to make sure that they were thinking about study abroad early,” he said. “You have a lot more options if you think early and plan early.” The mini fair will give students an idea of what the

Study Abroad Program is about. At the mini fair, the Study Abroad Office will set up booths where staff and study abroad alumni will encourage students to attend the main fair on Thursday. The main fair, starting at 11 a.m. Sept. 24, will take place in the central quad, where over 40 booths will be set up. Representatives of programs and departments that work with the Study Abroad Program will be present to give students more information about studying abroad, Hobson said. Attendees will also get a chance to ask study abroad alumni about their oversea experiences. International students who are currently studying at CSUF will also be attending the event. Other on-campus programs and offices from CSUF, such as the American Institute for Foreign Study and

the Education Abroad Network, are also expected to join the fair. The Office of Financial Aid will also be there to answer budget-related questions. The fair will include booths from CSUF partner schools that offer study abroad programs for CSUF students. Schools such as John Cabot University in Rome, Nanzan University in Japan, ChungAng University in Korea, University of Guadalajara and Heidelberg University of Applied Sciences are expected to attend the event. The study abroad program’s goal is to “promote our university’s goals of having a more internationalized campus,” said Charity Kuczynski, study abroad advisor. The university also aims to show students the benefits of adding an international experience to their course of study, she said.

Homeless: Public involvement wanted CONTINUED FROM

1

During the Aug. 18 Fullerton City Council meeting, homeless advocate Crystal Sims of the Legal Aid Society of Orange County said that the placement of the shelter was discriminatory. The zoning requirements “unlawfully segregate shelters from the public for discriminatory reasons and with discriminatory effect,” Sims said. There are no essential services such as grocery stores and pharmacies or medical and social services within the emergency shelter zone, Sims said. “Testimony at planning commission hearings makes the city’s intent clear to keep homeless residents from other city residents based on unjustified fears and stereotypes,” Sims told the council. “This is a difficult and complex issue. Our residents are very afraid about living with the homeless among them,” Councilwoman Jan Flory said. “For those people who oppose such shelters, I have to remind them that the homeless are among us whether we have shelters or not.” The council then voted unanimously to move forward with the shelter. “No one else is taking them, and unless we do this, we’re going to continue to see the population increase,” Quirk-Silva said. The Fullerton Police Department created the Homeless Liaison Unit to help the chronically homeless who suffer from mental illness or drug and alcohol related problems get off the street by offering mental health services, drug rehabilitation and job training, McCaskill

said. “I think we have to work together as a community,” Avellaneda said on how nonprofits could combat the homeless issue while also dealing with the private sector. “The majority of them want to be housed, but it’s not a choice. It’s difficult when we don’t have anywhere to place them.” Stephan Baxter, a Fullerton advocate for the homeless, asked for McCaskill’s view on the criminalization of homelessness after McCaskill was caught on camera arresting a 65-year-old homeless woman who recovering from recent hip surgery. “I did arrest a lady for warrants when she didn’t show up for court and as a result she started engaging with us,” McCaskill said. “It may seem very harsh when we have to do enforcement,” he said, “but what it actually did for her in the long run was to encourage her to take housing.” It was not the best way to use enforcement, but it worked, he said. “It’s not us being mean, it’s us trying to solve the problem,” McCaskill said. The beginning step to offering more shelters and services begins with the proposed shelter on Kraemer Place, Quirk-Silva said. “The ideal model would be that every city, or at least two or three cities have one,” she said. “I don’t think it was political talk, I think it was from-the-heart-talk,” said Ron Thomas, father of Kelly Thomas, a homeless man who died in 2011 after he was severely beaten by Fullerton police. “They really mean this, so I’ll hold them to it.”

Ex-dean reflects on innovations Fred Zandpour made inroads with Titan Communications SULEY RECINOS Daily Titan Fred Zandpour, Ph.D., former associate dean for the College of Communications and emeritus professor, has spent many years serving Cal State Fullerton and the surrounding community. During his academic career, Zandpour received a B.A. in economics from the National University of Iran, a Master of Arts in communication from University of Portland and a Doctorate in education from the University of Washington. Zandpour’s academic research on international advertising led him to become one of the top 10 most cited researchers from the years 1992 to 2002, according to the Journal of Advertising. “This was a joint publication with the students among the top most cited articles based on social science index,” Zandpour said. “It’s one of the top journals in the United States.” From 1997 to 2008, Zandpour was associate dean at CSUF, along with then-dean Rick Pullen. “My work is a combination of service to students and the university when I was associate dean,” Zandpour said. Zandpour and Pullen made efforts to implement more technology and international study abroad opportunities for students within the curriculum. “We agreed there were two major areas (Pullen) wanted me to pursue at the time. One was the technology and the other one was the

internationalization of the curriculum,” Zandpour said. “So as part of that I helped create the Hong Kong program, which was a graduate program that lasted for about 10 years.” During Zandpour’s time as associate dean, the entire College of Communications was relocated. The Daily Titan, Titan Radio and Titan TV all came together under the entity of Titan Communications. The programs were designated with specific work spaces and updated equipment. “With the technology we brought in, we were streaming to this campus way before Windows came out,” Zandpour said. “We created this entity called Titan Communications in those days, and we did a streaming of President Gordon and things on campus at that time, which I thought was pretty good. And then we created the Internet radio as a result of that.” Before the relocation, the Daily Titan had no computers. Zandpour said he worked to increase the amount of technology available to the school newspaper. “My wish for the Daily Titan was to get more into electronics,” Zandpour said. As a service to the surrounding communities, he served as co-chair of the annual Orange County e-business education conference at CSUF for 10 years. He has also worked alongside various ethnic business owners by setting up workshops and working alongside various boards of Asian business associations and Asian women entrepreneurs. “I’ve always been interested to promote

communication, especially to ethnic businesses. They really should always think of themselves as mainstream,” Zandpour said. He has gained recognition and honor from Sen. Dianne Feinstein for his community service. The cities of Fullerton and Anaheim and the County of Orange have also awarded him with certificates of recognition. Zandpour currently teaches a graduate capstone course for advertising and branding. “I just want to emphasize that nobody alone in a large organization can do anything without the support and enthusiasm of others,” Zandpour said. “So the most important thing is to get other people involved.”

Zandpour ensured that all sectors of Titan Communications, such as the Daily Titan, Titan TV and Titan Radio, had plenty of access to modern equipment.

Art alters reality for viewers

Artist Fred Tomaselli’s unique art inspired by altered mental state ERICA BUESA Daily Titan

Cal State Fullerton alumnus Fred Tomaselli returned to his alma mater on Sept. 12 to debut his latest exhibition in the Begovich Gallery. This is Tomaselli’s second show in California this year. The exhibition titled, “Fred Tomaselli: The Early Works or How I Became a Painter,” displays work which “has not been seen on the West Coast.” The exhibition showcases a range of pieces that were created shortly after Tomaselli graduated from CSUF through his early years in New York, where he currently lives. All the works being showcased had been in storage and some pieces underwent restoration in order to be displayed, Begovich Gallery director and curator Mike McGee said. “When McGee proposed that I do this show, I just thought it was too weird to say no to, seeing that I went to school here and I think a lot of my basic unhinging occurred in this area,” Tomaselli said. “And I thought it would be interesting to bring it back to the scene of the crime.” Fred currently creates mostly paintings, but his early pieces are constructed of pills, cans, plant matter and lights. One of his earliest works being showcased in the Begovich Gallery, “Current Theory” uses his “escapism” approach, featuring styrofoam cups, strings and a fan. It is best experienced in a dark room. McGee, who is also a friend of Tomaselli’s, explained that the use of pills in his work is symbolic of the altered state of

reality that inspires him. McGee explained that ingesting a pill physically can make you feel one way and looking at a pill can visually make you feel another way. That’s why Fred incorporates the pills into pieces such as “Hornet’s Nest,” which can be seen in the show. Tomaselli, an Orange County native, described examples of altered states of reality that influenced him, such as growing up near Disneyland, watching actor Ronald Reagan play president in the White House and his state of mind under the influence of marijuana. “I really did want to deliver a kind of mind blowing ‘oh wow’ experience to the viewer. But I also wanted them to sort of think about what that experience was. So that became a sort of genesis of the work and those issues, though they’ve changed formally through time,” Tomaselli said. Tomaselli describes his art as a mashup of California funk assemblage, punk rock sensibility and light and space methodologies. He incorporated cheap, everyday items into his spontaneous creations. Tomaselli’s early works mixed media and feature interactive pieces that should be experienced rather than seen. The cover of his book, “Fred Tomaselli: Early Work or How I Became a Painter” features one of these pieces. The faculty and student-produced book is for sale through the gallery or through Amazon. It features photographs of the art featured in the exhibition and essays from Mike McGee and peers. The book was printed by CSUF’s Grand Central Press. The exhibition ends Dec. 17. The gallery is open from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday, as well as Saturdays.

“Hornet’s Nest” is one of Tomaselli’s art pieces on display. It’s made out of commerical objects such as an old coffee can and pill capsules. Both legal and illegal pills were featured in his creations. The “altered state of mind” theme runs central to his exhibit.

The building that was formerly Steamer’s Jazz Club and Café is being transformed into Evans Brewing Co. While it is currently boarded up, musicians and patrons are hoping the new establishment will mean the return of a place to enjoy live jazz once again.

Jazz: expanding upon traditions 1

Terrence Love opened Steamers in 1994 as a place where people of all ages could come together and enjoy an evening of live music. Throughout the years, Steamers has hosted musicians of all calibers, from talented local artists to Grammy-winning performers.

Some of the best concerts I have seen in jazz were there and it is a real loss for the jazz community and the city of Fullerton.” Although it’s sad to bid farewell to the iconic Steamers, both musicians and jazz-lovers can look forward to what Evans Brewing Co. has in store. Hopefully, the new venue will carry on the tradition Steamers has left behind while preserving the art of jazz in Orange County for many years to come.

With all the rush and hullabaloo that the new semester brings, finding good food with quick service and high nutritional value becomes a real challenge. Luckily for Titans the search for delicious healthy food has never been easier with the recent addition of the Fresh Griller, on the corner of Chapman Avenue and State College Boulevard. Fresh Griller brings much-needed variety into the monotony of daily lunches. The restaurant’s exterior is inviting, featuring bright colors mixed with a combination of wood beams and concrete walls that immediately set the tone for a hip eatery with a modern feel. Upon entering, guests are met with an enthusiastic greeting from the establishment’s cashiers and food preparers. Fresh Griller utilizes a newly popular cafeteria style of service, similar to that of Chipotle or a build-yourown-pizza restaurant. Guests line up and head down the lengthy counter, section by section, with an opportunity to choose between a salad, a wrap or a bowl as the base to their dish. The healthy eating theme

doesn’t restrict tastebuds with bland flavors. An assortment of grilled chicken, tofu and steak are offered as the tasty entreés. The aroma of fresh vegetables permeates the senses as the patron is faced with choices such as green beans, cucumber salad and Fresh Griller’s fajitas. Topped off with a signature sauce, such as their famous garlic-based aji verde, or their creamy wasabi ranch, the customer’s perfect dish is tied together with the creamy center of a softboiled egg mixed with the perfectly cooked basmati rice. For students who need to chow down while finishing up last-minute homework, a common space equipped with convenient charging ports is provided. The restaurant has ample seating for families, couples on dates or friends who want their own spots surrounding the center space. Time can pass quickly here as people of all ages talk with friends over healthy food and enjoy unique 100 percent sugar cane sodas. With an assortment of fresh ingredients sizzling on the grill, customers have the opportunity to get creative and spice up their dishes by customizing them. Fresh Griller’s authentic ingredients, bold flavors and tasty food proves it is here to stay. Their hours of operation are from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week.

OPINION An Apple car is sure to be a game changer

PAGE 6 SEPTEMBER 23, 2015 WEDNESDAY

With Apple’s large finances, its car should be impressive CONNIE LEE Daily Titan Apple already rules the electronic world, but now it’s getting its hands into automobile manufacturing. With the negative attention the company has received concerning its finances, it seems inevitable for it to do something to shift the public eye; but in doing so, it’s actually changing history and the way people will look at cars forever. Apple has been under fire lately for the amount of

money the company has taken in, withholding money from shareholders and returning capital instead of investing it. With the company’s cash flow standing at about $202.8 billion, according to Forbes, it had to do something to keep critics happy. What better way to break boundaries than to create its own electric car of the future, or Project Titan as Apple calls it. Only rumors and reports have been circulating about the car, but an Apple-branded car shouldn’t be shocking to anyone. Apple isn’t completely new to the auto industry. The company has already developed a new iPhone interface, CarPlay, that comes standard

with newer BMWs, Fords and Hondas. Why stop there when there’s major competition from companies like Google and Tesla? Apple hasn’t publicly spoken about the car yet, but knowing how fast it upgrades phones, televisions and computers, this car will be one of the game changers of the future. Cars are like a home away from home. When drivers travel, they want something that they can feel comfortable in. Apple is sure to take into account consumer needs and make something jaw-dropping, especially with the budget it has to work with. IPhones and iPads are made to accommodate users’ unique

likes and dislikes, and if these cars are similar, then they will be worth the wait. Although critics may be wary because Apple doesn’t have any car building experience besides its CarPlay project, that doesn’t ensure its new project’s failure. Apple enlisted a team to assist in developing the Apple Watch; it can afford to get some of the best technicians and engineers to make this car come to life. With Apple’s release date being projected for 2019, four years to create something from nothing is a big deal. It wouldn’t be surprising if Apple misses its deadline, but it is sure to be something that will turn heads.

(Mar. 21 - Apr. 19)

Today you might be so intent on your work that you don’t hear what someone says to you, Aries. No matter how important your task, take the time to listen and pay attention to what someone tells you, however trivial it may seem now.

LEO

(Jul. 23 - Aug. 22)

A friend may have some outrageous, unworkable ideas for making money, Leo. No matter what they involve, you’ll probably start by listening just to be polite and then end up wondering if your friend is still on this planet.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

Usually your mind is sharp and centered, Sagittarius, but today you’ll probably feel like you can’t think straight. Your thoughts might be vague and disjointed. If there’s something you need to do immediately, either make a great effort to focus on the task at hand or get some help.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20 - May 20)

Have you recently purchased something you wanted that’s more of a luxury than a necessity? Today you might feel guilty about it. It may have temporarily strained your budget. Don’t even think about taking it back! Sometimes luxury items can lift the spirits.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23 - Sep. 22)

Your level of concentration generally tends to be strong, Virgo, but today you could be temporarily at a disadvantage. Your thoughts seem vague and disjointed and you’re less able to express yourself clearly and precisely.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

You generally tend to be intuitive, Capricorn, but today your sensitivity might approach the level of an oracle - or seem to! You might have some good luck picking up the thoughts and feelings of others, but your premonitions, while plentiful, are off track.

GEMINI

(May 21 - Jul. 20)

Are you working at home today, Gemini? This won’t make your efforts any less intense, especially if your work involves writing or speaking on the phone. Whatever you’re doing will probably seem urgent. You need to do things carefully.

LIBRA

(Sep. 23 - Oct. 22)

Today you might intuit some strange and unsettling thoughts and feelings from a brother, sister, or neighbor, Libra. This person isn’t likely to want to talk about what’s bothering them, even if you express concern. Sometimes people have to work themselves.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

A decision may need to be made today that requires logic and practicality. You might find that your feelings get in the way. Sometimes it’s best to step back and discern why your emotions are interfering. Is there a hidden factor you may not be considering?

CANCER

(Jun. 21 - Jul. 22)

A strange letter or phone call could come your way today, Cancer, and the information you receive could seem rather garbled. It may be good news or bad, or possibly neither, but don’t accept© thewordsearch it at face value. Somewhere along the line someone misinterpreted.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Some disconcerting information you receive today from a group you’re affiliated with could have you wondering if you have a future with this group, Scorpio. This might be disillusioning for you, but this isn’t a good day to make any decisions.

PISCES

(Feb. 20 - Mar. 20)

Today a charismatic, artistic woman could visit your home, Pisces. She could have a lot of ideas to discuss, perhaps proposing that you work on a project together. This might be a good idea, but don’t commit to it now. Your friend has a way of getting people all excited and clouding their judgment. VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

RENZY REYES / DAILY TITAN

Robert Coronado and the rest ofthe Titans were airtight in last weekend’s game against UTRGV. The Titans upcoming weekend games will provide plenty of chances to refine any kinks in the system.

Titans looking to improve their form

Men’s soccer set for last pair of nonconference games AARON VALDEZ Daily Titan

The Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team prepares for the Big West season to get underway, as it heads into its final two non-conference games against Utah Valley and Grand Canyon University this week. With conference play on the horizon, the Titans hope to win the next two games to carry some momentum going into the Big West. The past weekend saw CSUF split two games,

losing to the University of San Diego 3-1 and beating the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley 1-0. The Titans are looking forward to taking both games this week and starting a new winning streak. Head Coach George Kuntz said that his team has not played as smoothly as he would have hoped, but he is optimistic as the Titans have won four of their last five games. However, while the offense has done well to open up chances, the Titans must produce a better goal ratio by capitalizing on as many opportunities as possible, Kuntz said. Currently, the team is netting an average of 1.6 goals

and 12.1 shots per game, producing a .129 shot percentage. In total, the Titans have put away a respectable 11 goals while allowing only eight in seven games. This season, a handful of players have performed well by providing the Titans with some much-needed firepower. Sophomore midfielder Diego Sanchez has been the offensive catalyst for the Titans. Not only does he lead the team with three goals and one assist, but his prowess in the midfield has created multiple opportunities for Fullerton. Forward Brandon West has also been productive up front, causing a slew of problems for defending teams. So far,

Women’s golf puts on steady performance Titans finished in 6th place on the final day of the Cougar Cup ALAN BERNAL Daily Titan A top-five finish in the first day of the Cougar Cup put the Cal State Fullerton women’s golf team in great position to make a dent in the tournament. However, after the three-round affair, the Titans lost a bit of ground, slipping to sixth place. Although the tour did not yield great results for the team, individual play shined on the links as Martina Edberg broke course and cup records. Freshmen talent provided material on which to improve moving forward in the season. With a good start to the first day in Washington, the Titans were able to maintain a middle-of-thepack standing after they saw rounds with all five players going 5-over par or lower. Fullerton’s highlight of the two-day affair was

on

Edberg’s dominating performance on the fairway. She tied for second place among the 60 competitor. Edberg sank three birdies on the second day, giving her a tournament best of 15. Though Edberg’s third round did not hold up to her previous record-breaking day, her 2-over 74 performance was still enough to give Edberg her sixth career top-five finish. Additionally, the 2014 Big West Women’s Golf Freshman of the Year’s overall score of 213 tied for the second best 54-hole performance in CSUF’s history. Her third round 18-hole run had a mixed performance. Although two birdies alleviated some extra strokes from the day prior, three bogies in the seventh, eighth and ninth hole closed any progress made. Edberg’s third round performance was consistent, as she started the back nine with her last birdie of the day, but her pace slowed with two bogies on the 13th and 15th hole.

As for the rest of the team, the Titans ended the third round with a score of 18-over 306. Freshman Felicia Medalla gave the Titans a preview of her potential for tournaments to come. Finishing the tournament 16over 232, her performance did not go a long way in bringing the Titans back to fifth place, but she managed to tie for 41st along with teammate Brittany Farrell. Farrell’s double-bogey in the eighth hole marred what was otherwise a steady performance on the day. She was the only Titan on the team to par the 13th hole, and only sank four bogeys in the last round. Senior Dakota Brown and freshman Pauline Welker both completed their first tournaments as Titans, tying for 27th and 38th, respectively. The Titans will head to their third tournament of the season this weekend for the Wyoming Cowgirl Desert Classic. The action begins Sept. 26 and ends Sept. 27 in Classic Club Golf Course.

the freshman has netted two goals, one of them an unassisted game-winner against UTRGV. Defensively, the Titans have been steady thanks to the leadership of senior goalkeeper David Elias. On the season, Elias has recorded 19 saves, averaging 1.14 per game. Despite his stellar play, the game against UTRGV was the first time this season that Elias did not record a save. This feat was actually a good sign for the Titans’ back line, as they denied their opponent’s shots throughout the game. The Competition The Utah Valley Wolverines boast a formidable record of 6-2, but are coming off a tough 2-1 overtime loss

to the then No. 15 University of Denver. The Wolverines have scored a total of 14 goals with seven assists in eight games while only allowing their opponents to score five times. Utah Valley’s .125 shot percentage stands slightly lower than the Titans’ .129, whereas the Wolverines’ goals per game average is higher at 1.75. Fullerton’s biggest worry lies in Wolverines midfielder Aaron Meyer, who has recorded three goals and three assists thus far. Forward Karson Payton also poses a huge threat, as he has performed well for the Wolverines with two goals and two assists on the season. As of now, the Grand Canyon University Antelopes’

record is 3-2, but they will compete against the University of the Pacific this Friday before their game against the Titans. The Antelopes have netted a total of nine goals off of five assists while allowing seven goals in five games. Their shot percentage comes in at .132, which could explain their 1.8 goals a game. The Titans must keep watch for GCU’s Alberto Sanchez Garcia, as he’s made a name for himself for recording three goals and two assists on the season. Fullerton will travel to Utah Valley on Thursday and return home to play against Grand Canyon on Sunday at Titan Stadium.
