Cal State Fullerton base-ball moved into a three-way tie for first in the Big West Conference as they swept UC Riverside in three games at the Riverside Sports Complex.

The Titans (26-20 overall, 11-4 Big West) came alive offensively in their weekend series against the Highland-ers (13-32 overall, 2-13 Big West). Fullerton outscored Riverside 35-4 over the weekend, including a 19-0 victory Saturday. The Ti-tans also won 9-0 Friday in the opener, as well as 7-4 in Sunday’s series finale.

More than 100 Cal State Fullerton students chose to be homeless Friday night, sleeping inside cardboard boxes on campus as part of an event intended to bring attention to homelessness.

The event, Box City, was put on by Master of So-cial Work students to raise money and awareness for homeless people in Orange County.

The event lasted through Friday evening and into Sat-urday morning, and featured activities and speakers Fri-day night.

Over 4,000 students swarmed the intramural field Saturday afternoon for the Associated Students, Inc. an-nual Spring Concert, which sold out in one day, setting an Associated Students record.

Associated Students fell under pressure after origi-nal headliner, Wiz Khali-fa, cancelled his appearance just nine days before the concert.

However, Associated Stu-dents rushed to find a re-placement of equal caliber, Spring Concert coordinator Shannon Franklin said.

Fortunately, Associat-ed Students received confir-mation that dirty-south At-lanta rapper Ludacris was available to do the show,

N. Korea detains U.S student

Tel Aviv protests turn violent

Baltimore mayor lifts curfew

An American stu-dent was arrested and detained in North Ko-rea after crossing into the country illegally, CNN reported.

Won-moon Joo, a New Jersey resi-dent and student at New York University, reportedly crossed the Yalu River to go from China to North Korea.

He was arrested April 22 and the North Korean news agency reported that he ad-mitted that his entry into the country was illegal.

Joo was not tak-ing classes this se-mester, according to a statement from the university.

The South Kore-an Unification Minis-try said it is working to determine the facts behind Joo’s detain-ment, but believes that he is being detained in North Korea.

Protests over the mistreatment of Ethi-opian Jews in Tel Aviv turned violent Sunday, and 57 police officers and 12 protesters were injured, CNN reported.

The protests stemmed from a video showing an Israel De-fense Forces soldier of Ethiopian descent being beaten by police officers.

Protesters gathered together in Tel Aviv’s Rabin Square, where they chanted, “a violent cop should be in jail” in response.

Authorities used horses, water canons and smoke to disperse the crowd.

The protest fol-lowed on the heels of a peaceful protest of more than 1,000 in Jerusalem.

The curfew imposed on Baltimore following violent riots in the city has been lifted, and the National Guard is preparing to leave the city, CNN reported.

The National Guard is exiting the city be-cause conditions have improved after days of rioting.

Monday’s protests resulted in the loss of 200 businesses, many of which were minority-owned.

Since April 23, more than 480 people were arrested at protests and more than 110 police officers were injured.

The protests and ri-ots were sparked af-ter Freddie Gray died in police custody of a severe spinal injury.

The six police offi-cers involved in Gray’s arrest and death will be charged by the state attorney.

Robert Brassaw, Master of Social Work student said he is very passionate about the Box City event and remembers what Bailey told him about the importance of what they are doing, he said.

“For the families being af-fected by this, they are basi-cally being told that there are 100 people that are willing to spend their time, their energy, their money, their blood, sweat and tears to say ‘you matter,’” Brassaw said.

This year, individuals

associated with the event add-ed a dozen neighborhoods showcasing different facets of the homeless population.

These included one neigh-borhood representing home-less veterans, another for homeless people with mental illnesses, a third represented LGBTQ homeless people, and another neighborhood housed people representing homeless single parents.

In Orange County there are about 4,000 to 6,000 people each night with no home to sleep in, said Casey Crosbie, executive director of Family

Promise of Orange County. Crosbie helps lead the Or-

ange County chapter of the national organization and pro-vides food and shelter for the local homeless community.

CSUF’s master program in social work is directly con-nected to Family Promise of Orange County, an organiza-tion which seeks to stabilize the lives of homeless families and provide them with tem-porary housing and other sup-port. All of the program fund-raising from Box City goes to the organization for it to help the homeless.

Thousands of developmen-tally disabled students from schools in Orange County are to spend Friday at Cal State Fullerton for the annual Kath-leen E. Faley Memorial Spe-cial Games.

Athletes from roughly 85 schools participated in the games, and students from 23 high schools volunteered their time and to spend the day with an assigned special needs bud-dy at various activities.

“The kids were all just teamed up with high school aged buddies … they had a blast,” said Patricia Mon-toya, special education teach-er at Grandview College

Preparatory Academy. About 2,500 special ath-

letes were expected to attend, and each was paired with one of 4,000 volunteers, according to the special games website.

The efforts of volunteers didn’t escape the notice of spe-cial education instructors, in-cluding Paul Unga from Eti-wanda High School.

“Some of my kids didn’t even know how to swing a bat ... to see the kids trying to help them with their batting tech-nique was kind of cool,” Unga said.

The CSUF intramural field, North of Titan Gym, was filled with non-competitive activities, including a football throw, basketball hoop toss, soccer goal kicks, T-Balls, bean bag toss, 50 yard fun dash, volleyball, frisbee toss, wiffle ball and more.

Maurice Davison, senior at Servite High School, was paired up with a buddy and the

two participated in basketball, football and soccer together.

“I’m just glad to see smiles on kids’ faces,” Davison said.

The whole festival was fo-cused on creating special memories for disabled stu-dents, who might not nor-mally get these types of experiences.

Zoya Mota, a special games athlete from Travis Ranch Middle School, said her fa-vorite part was petting the Pet Prescription Team therapy dogs.

“We did kickball, we did the baseball over there, we ran around, and we definitely did the dancing because our class loves the dancing,” Unga said.

The event was created as a class project by Dan Faley, Lisa Whaley and Dan Bohen in 1986, as a unique day where disabled students can play, be themselves, and get lots of love and attention.

Samuel Lopez was convict-ed to 26 years in prison for the 1994 murder of Cathy Torrez,

according to a release from the Orange County District Attorney.

Before he was sentenced, Lopez admitted to the murder for the first time, apologizing to the family of Torrez, who were present in the courtroom, according to the release.

Lopez was convict-ed March 3 of one felo-ny count of murder with a

sentencing enhancement of the use of a deadly weap-on, according to a release from the Orange County District Attorney.

In 1994, Samuel Lopez pro-posed to Torrez, then a student at CSUF, who refused.

The following week, Sam-uel attacked Torrez with a knife in her car after an argu-ment. He proceeded to chase

her after she exited her car to flee, stabbing her repeated-ly in the face, torso and head before moving her body to the trunk of her car, according to the report.

Samuel Lopez then drove to another location and, us-ing a newspaper and plastic bag to lift her up, cut Tor-rez’s wrists and throats, ac-cording to the report.

Her car was found sever-al days later by a Placentia police officer.

In 2007, Samuel and his cousin, Xavier Lopez, were arrested for Torrez’s murder.

Xavier is charged with a felony count of special cir-cumstances of murder in-volving torture, he faces a maximum sentence of life

in prison, and will appear in court May 29, according to the release.

Samuel’s brother, Ar-mando Lopez, is also charged in Torrez’s murder with one count of acces-sory after the fact and dis-suading a witness from re-porting a crime, according to the release. Both charges are felonies.

The group performed up-beat, dancey singles like Terraforming and I Don’t Recall from their new LP, Neat!, to create an energet-ic and fun set.

CSUF student and win-ner of 2015 Battle of the DJs, DJ Casio, graced the turntables with euphor-ic electro dance and trap mixes. He opened the event and stayed mixing throughout the concert, maintaining the hype.

Cascio loved seeing the crowd jump up and down to his mixes, he said.

“I will never forget my night at Cal State Fuller-ton, it was mind-blowing and I will always remem-ber for the rest of my life,” Cascio said.

After a lengthy wait, Cal-ifornia native rapper Tyga, also known as “T-Raw,” graced the stage wear-ing gold chains around his

neck, a diamond encrust-ed watch, flashy rings and bracelets.

He started off rocking the crowd with Dope and Young Kobe. Tyga then turned it up a notch, testing the crowd during his per-formance. He turned the concert into a sing along

when he delivered flawless flow to his most recent ra-dio hits Loyal, Hookah, Hijack and Ayo. The crowd also embraced his older party tracks, Lap Dance, Rack City and Aye Ladies, where Tyga had the whole crowd bouncing and clap-ping to the catchy twerk hooks.

Closing out the show,

hip-hop veteran Ludacris dominated the stage with his hype man performing dirty south bangers South-ern Hospitality, Move B***h and Rollout. Luda-rics’ rapping and interac-tions with his hype man made for a crowd-pleasing performance.

Ludacris’ well-known DJ, DJ Infamous, spun a quick mix for the crowd, showing west coast love with Tupac’s Hail Mary and Dr. Dre’s Next Epi-sode. During the perfor-mance, Ludacris took some time to appreciate the di-versity within crowd and united them all through their love of hip-hop.

Cinco de Mayo is Tues-day, and it is a great oppor-tunity for students to go out and celebrate.

No celebration would be complete without food, and this Cinco de Mayo will be a great opportunity to try regional Mexican food in Orange County.

Most Mexican food in the United States has been heavily influenced by the cuisine of Northern Mexi-co. This arid region proved ideal for raising cattle and wheat, but less so for fruits and vegetables. North-ern Mexican cuisine tends to focus on outdoor grill-ing of meat, a wide vari-ety of cheeses and flour tortillas.

For those seeking to stick to their basic authentic fa-vorites, like burritos and flat steak, El Nopal restau-rant in Anaheim is a smart choice.

The menu offers a wide range of quesadillas, tacos, burritos and fajitas, as well as traditional dishes like molcajete. The fajitas al res burrito with grilled beef, onions, bell peppers and a mild sauce in a fresh flat-top grilled flour tortilla is excellent.

While many Americans have grown to love North

Mexican cuisine, Califor-nians are lucky to have lo-cal Mexican restaurants that cook dishes from Southern Mexico as well.

These dishes offer a stark contrast to their northern counterparts, thanks to in-fluences from Mayan and European cultures.

The state of Oaxaca in Southeast Mexico is known as the birthplace of mole, a layered sauce that often requires hours of labor to complete.

The mole negro is one of the most well known moles—it tends to be slightly smoky, chocolatey and indelibly smooth.

Casa Oaxaca in Santa Ana wholeheartedly em-braces its traditional roots; the interior is heavily influ-enced by Mexican culture.

In traditional Oaxacan style, tamales served by Casa Oaxaca are wrapped in a banana leaf, rather than a corn husk, and are filled with shredded chick-en, fine masa and drizzled with mole negro.

While both El Nopal and Casa Oaxaca offer ex-cellent Mexican food at an equally excellent price,

there are a few restaurants in Orange County that of-fer more nuanced Southern Mexican cuisine for more money.

Gaby’s Kitchen in Or-ange offers a wide variety of dishes influenced by the cuisine of Yucatan, Vera-cruz and Chiapas.

One of the more difficult dishes to find in Orange County is a well executed pozole verde—a hominy soup with meat and veg-etables from the Chiapas region.

Gaby’s serves a pozole verde that has swordfish, littleneck clams, shrimp, arugula, radish and avoca-do. Drinks can also be pur-chased but can get pricy, with most cocktails priced at $12 or more.

For a blend of Yucatan influences and French cui-sine, look no further than Anepalco’s Cafe near The Block in Orange. Along with a slew of delicious dishes, Anepalco’s offers Yucatan’s most famous dish—the cochinita pibil.

The cochinita pibil is a suckling pig wrapped in banana leaves and cooked for hours, making it in-credibly tender and is of-ten paired with achiote, the regional spice of Yucatan. Anepalco’s offers cochinita pibil on a cuban sandwich, in enchiladas, or even sprinkled over Anepalco’s chilaquiles.

All of these restaurants can be found on Yelp, and have no less than a four-star overall rating.

Local brunch spot Rialto Café is a success

With summer just around the corner, lazy mornings and cocktails before noon are just at our fingertips.

Although downtown Ful-lerton is known mostly for its nightlife, there are also plenty of restaurants for those looking for some-thing to eat earlier in the day.

Among them is Rialto Café, on the corner of West Wilshire Avenue and North Harbor Boulevard.

Owned by a father and daughter duo, the cute lit-tle café is buzzing with lo-cals, all on a first-name ba-sis with one another.

The café is full of chat-ter, with everyone catching up over Rialto’s amazing organic coffee. This place is the epitome of a local gem.

The café is a bit small, with only a few tables for outdoor seating, a six seat-er bar and six tables inside, but their extensive menu makes up for the cramped venue.

The menu is divided be-tween breakfast on one side and lunch items on the other.

With their usual hours

being 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., on most days, the busiest hour is around noon—per-fect for brunch.

Their breakfast menu sat-isfies both savory and sweet cravings, including every-thing from simple eggs and pancakes to huevos ran-cheros, a smoked salmon breakfast crostini and of course, their incredibly de-licious crepes with nutella

and strawberries.The lunch menu has all

the tasty classics we love from a café including burg-ers, paninis, soup de jour and a selection of salads.

The most exciting item by far on their lunch menu would have to be their southwest panini.

A panini itself is enough to make your mouth water, but adding fresh ingredients

like pico de gallo and avo-cado on just-baked sour-dough bread elevates the sandwich to perfection. A must-try for sure.

Although they are most-ly known for their brunch menu, Rialto does serve dinner, but only on Fridays and Saturdays from 6-10 p.m.

Their dinner menu is small, but definitely does

not disappoint. Serving items like chick-

en cacciatore, balsamic top sirloin and ahi salad, Rialto Café shows it’s more than a one-trick pony.

Rialto Café is absolutely scrumptious and delivers in both hospitality as well as cuisine.

The only criticism I can make is that their menu is a bit on the pricier side.

But in all fairness, the price is reasonable consid-ering the freshness of the food and the quaint, lively atmosphere. Rialto Café is a great place to stop by before or after class.

With great service, amazing food and a charm-ing atmosphere, this local gem is worth a trip the next time you’re looking for a tasty bite.

This local gem is perfect for hosting friends and family

Located in the heart of downtown Fullerton, Rialto Café serves up a tasty brunch and dinner menu. The spot is a local favorite, where guests and servers are on a first name basis. Although it’s small, the delicious food is worth the wait. The diverse menu serves everything from omlettes and paninis, to salads and chicken cacciatore.

Sophomore pitcher Still-wagon got a chance to swing the bat for the Titans Saturday and picked up his first career hit.

Fullerton complet-ed the sweep with a 7-4 win against UC Riverside Sunday.

The Titans set a school record, pitching 30.2 con-secutive scoreless innings dating back to the seventh inning against USC Tues-day night. The record-ing-breaking streak was broken up in the seventh

inning as the Highlanders’ Cody Sporrer flied out to cash in Adonis Morrison from third base.

For the third consecutive game, the Titans’ starting pitcher picked up the win. Freshman John Gavin (6-1) pitched five innings, allow-ing four hits, four strike-outs and finished the game with no walks.

The Titans got out to a 3-0 lead in the first in-ning thanks to three hits and a walk. The Titans would never relinquish the lead.

Bravo, who got on

base via a walk, has now reached base in 27 consec-utive games.

The Titans elevated their record to 11-4 in the Big West Conference, which ties them with UC Irvine and the No. 11-ranked team in the nation, UC Santa Barbara.

The Titans are riding a five-game winning streak since their bats and pitch-ing both caught fire over the past week.

Fullerton will need to continue their solid play this weekend; they will take on fellow conference

leaders and one of the top teams in the nation in UCSB (34-10 overall, 11-4

Big West). The Gauchos will make

the trip down to Goodwin

Field to take on the Titans this weekend. First pitch will be Friday night at 7 p.m.

Track sets new records in two-meet weekend

School records fell, victo-ries were accumulated and impressive showings were had throughout for the Cal State Fullerton men’s and women’s track and field pro-grams over a weekend two-event span.

The Titans enjoyed most of their success at Satur-day’s four-team Cal State Northridge Challenge a day after competing in the larger field at the Steve Scott Invita-tional at UC Irvine.

A historic Saturday after-noon belonged to a pair of Ti-tans, sophomore Ty’Jalayah Robertson and junior Joshua Gordon.

Robertson broke a 17-year school record in the high jump when the Walnut High product won the event with a leap of 5 feet, 8 inches. The mark eclipsed the program’s previous-best effort of 5-7 3/4, set by Loren Gualco in 1998.

Robertson was not done, however, as she also set

another personal-best mark of 38-9 1/2 (11.82 meters) in tak-ing silver for the triple jump.

As for Gordon, the junior also turned in a stellar effort.

The Northridge native thrived in his own backyard as he set a school record in the 400-meter dash with a silver-medalist time of 46.93. The time just surpassed the school record mark of 46.98, which had been held by Bran-don Campbell since 2000.

The accolade came on a day in which Gordon was also second in the 200-me-ter dash (21.65) and helped pace the men’s 400-me-ter and 1,600-meter re-lay teams to victories with times of 40.98 and 3:15.43, respectively.

Perhaps lost in the fervor over school records was an-other outstanding perfor-mance by Tyler Hardge.

The freshman was a two-time individual champi-on, winning the women’s 100-meter hurdles in 14.13 seconds, while also claiming the 400-meter hurdles victory in 1:00.10.

Additionally, Fullerton boasted five more individual victors Saturday, including se-nior Tejera Dial winning the 800-meter run in 2:10.67.

On the men’s side, Nick

Sole clinched the 100-me-ter (10.78), Shelby Hernandez won the 800-meter (1:52.17), Daniel Walker was the top javelin competitor with a throw of 54.05 meters (177-4 feet) and Steven Williams won another high jump com-petition with a jump of 2.10 meters (6 feet, 10 inches).

Prior to Saturday, the Ti-tans took part in the Steve Scott Invitational hosted by Big West Conference rival UC Irvine on Friday.

While no victories were posted, Fullerton still came away with some positive results.

Sophomore David Ramirez posted his squad’s top fin-ish when he placed third in the men’s 3,000-meter stee-plechase in a personal-record time of 9:05.70.

Tim Reed also competed in the steeplechase and was not far off Ramirez’s pace, taking fifth in 9:15.90.

On the women’s side, Pa-mela Pelayo was fourth in the steeplechase in 11:19.85, while Arianna Fuentes took fifth in 11:32.35.

Both weekend meets served as final preparation for Fullerton before the Big West Conference Combined Events, which begin Friday at UC Riverside.

JOKES OF THE WEEK

Q: Where does bad light go?

A: To prism!

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19):

Plans need revision. Pay household bills and get organized. Stash away any surplus. Don’t get goofed up on the deadlines. A conflict about money could waste valuable time. Follow through on what you said you’d do.

TAURUS(APRIL 20 - MAY 20):

Avoid someone who’s all talk. A lucky break propels your actions farther. Let your imagina-tion run wild. Dress up; you never know whom you’ll run into. Make plans with friends.

GEMINI(MAY 21 - JUNE 20):

You’re energized. Cultivate inner peace. Imagine your future. Make a commitment you’ve been considering, to take advantage of an opportuni-ty. Provide information with a marketing spin. A public meeting holds a surprise.

CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22):

Don’t spend your savings on a whim. Choose priorities carefully, and review details, especially at work. Ask probing questions to get the full picture. A friend connects you with the perfect person.

LEO(JULY 23 - AUG. 22):

Listen to your conscience before committing to a fantasy. Only buy what you need. A surprise announcement could catch you off guard. Reas-sure a skeptic.

VIRGO(AUG. 23 - SEPT. 22):

Nebulous dreams could tempt you to distrac-tion, but required chores interfere. Get everyone in on the action... many hands make light work. Invest in efficiency. Demand explanations. Start imagining life outside your rut.

LIBRA(SEPT. 23 - OCT. 22):

Don’t buy toys or goof off today. Do what you promised before indulging in treats. Make plans, confirm reservations and pay bills. Up-grade work technology. You get a bright idea, but don’t over-extend.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23 - NOV. 21):

Controversy arises. Don’t fall for a trick. Explain your secret weapon to your team. Others help out, in an amazing development. There’s no need to rush.

SAGITTARIUS(NOV. 22 - DEC. 21):

You spot an antique you want. Give up some-thing you don’t need. Collect any money you’re owed. In some cases, study is required. Share information, and review what you’re learning with a partner.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 - JAN. 19):

Be careful about spending money you don’t have yet. Let a big decision sit overnight. Talk it over, and consider your health and work com-mitments. Don’t get singed.

AQUARIUS(JA. 20 - FEB. 18):

Envision sharing fun with family and friends, and getting something done at the same time. Generate the funds. Choose a new paint color. Listen to your intuition.

PISCES(FEB. 19 - MARCH 20):

Power past old fears. Use your secret resource to upgrade your home. You’re gaining skills... re-veal what you’ve learned. It could get confusing. If so, wait and try later. You’re admired for your clever imagination. Don’t press a controversial point, though.

ARE YOU A FAN OFONCE UPON A TIME?

Thanks to a four-run sev-enth inning, the Cal State Fullerton softball team ral-lied for a stunning come-from-behind 7-6 victory in Sunday afternoon’s se-ries finale versus host UC Davis.

The win clinched the Ti-tans’ three-game series versus the Aggies, with a 4-1 defeat Saturday after-noon offset by a 3-1 tri-umph in the second leg of the doubleheader.

With the series victory, the Titans improved their season record to 32-21 overall. Fullerton is 10-8 in conference and tied with Hawaii (29-22 overall, 10-8 Big West) for third in the Big West Conference.

A defeat seemed a fore-gone conclusion for Fuller-ton Sunday, as the Titans entered the seventh inning trailing 6-3.

Fullerton’s rally began with a walk and stolen base for Gabrielle Rodas, who then trotted home on a run-scoring single from Sydney Colenzo.

A two-run single from Courtney Rodriguez fol-lowed a double from Mis-sy Taukeiaho and knotted the score at six. Rodriguez eventually scored the go-ahead run due to a field-ing error to give Fullerton a 7-6 lead.

CSUF redshirt junior pitcher Desiree Ybarra (10-6), who entered the game in the fourth inning, recorded

three quick outs in the sev-enth to secure the win.

Overall, Ybarra tossed 3.1 innings of relief, allow-ing two earned runs on four hits and a walk. Taukeiaho finished 2-for-3 with two doubles and one run batted in.

While late offense was on display Sunday, it was pitching that took center stage for the Titans in Sat-urday’s second game of the doubleheader.

Fullerton starting pitcher Christina Washington was masterful in the Titans’ 3-1 victory and improved her record to 16-6. The soph-omore allowed one run on two hits with three walks in a complete-game effort.

UC Davis actually held a 1-0 lead after three in-nings, but Fullerton ral-lied for single runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings.

Lexi Gonzalez singled in Brooke Clemetson in the fourth, Sarah Moore sin-gled in Samantha Vandiv-er in the fifth and Vandiv-er singled in Kylie Padilla in the sixth to account for Fullerton’s scoring.

While Fullerton’s pitch-ing was stout in game two, UC Davis’ pitching was also strong in game one. In Saturday morning’s open-ing game of the series, the Aggies showed off some of that tough pitching.

In that contest, a 4-1 vic-tory for the Aggies, UC Davis pitcher Leah Mund-en improved to 10-12 by al-lowing only one run on six hits over seven innings.

Fullerton briefly held a 1-0 lead in the contest when Vandiver singled to lead off the third and then scored two batters later on

a double from Courtney Rodriguez to center.

The Titans could have tacked on more runs in the inning, but Rodriguez was thrown out while run-ning the bases. Immedi-ately after the play, Titans teammate Moore doubled. Moore was stranded at sec-ond, though.

UC Davis responded to the deficit by taking a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the third on a three-run blast from Kelly Zboralske.

Up next for Fullerton is the final season series of the year versus con-ference-leading Cal State Northridge (40-13 overall,

15-3 Big West).The Matadors have al-

ready clinched a share of the Big West Conference crown and can take the ti-tle outright with one victo-ry over Fullerton.

The teams get underway at Anderson Family Field on Friday at 5 p.m. before closing out the season with a doubleheader Saturday.

A series victory would establish a new high mark

for victories for Head Coach Kelly Ford during her three-year tenure at CSUF. Fullerton enters the series with 32 wins, one fewer than last year’s total of 33.
