The Becker Amphitheater at Cal State Fullerton will be filled with the sound of mu-sic once again, as Associated Students Incorporated Pro-ductions’ Wednesday Concert series gets underway.

The free concerts, which have happened weekly for several semesters, will now occur on a bi-weekly basis.

Doris Munoz, who is in charge of ASI Productions concerts, said the decision was made to switch from a weekly format to a bi-weekly one to provide students with “bigger and better” bands and artists. She said not having a concert at the Becker every week will give ASI Produc-tions larger budgets for book-ing individual talent.

Munoz said there are al-ready a number of artists slat-ed for the upcoming semester and that those artists repre-sent a wide variety of musi-cal genres. There will be ska bands, folk bands and bands with a latin flair.

The first of the bi-weekly concerts took place Thursday, Aug. 27 and indie band Sea-side Audio took the stage be-fore a gathering of students. Munoz said she was surprised by the turnout for that first

concert. “It’s crazy because that’s

the biggest turnout we’ve had in a long time,” she said. “We had over 500 students attend that event, so that was amazing.”

Next up on ASI Produc-tions schedule for Sept. 10 is These Pilgrims, a folk band from Whittier who has fre-quented local venues such as

the Night Owl in Downtown Fullerton.

“They’re a really tight-knit folk group,” Munoz said. “So I’m really excited about that because we haven’t really seen folk on campus.”

Indie band Naive Thieves and dream-pop band Mono-gem will be taking the stage to belt out some tunes on Sept. 24 and Nov. 5, respectively.

Munoz said fans of music from classic animated Disney films will not want to miss out on Suburban Legends, who will bring their infec-tious and energetic ska covers of Disney songs to the Becker in December.

While Munoz was excited to share some of the bands that will be rocking the Beck-er, she was tight-lipped about

others. She said ASI’s biggest

booking will play on Oct. 8, and the announcement for that band will not come out for a while. She said the band will play during ASI’s collaboration with the As-sociation for InterCultural Awareness.

Cal State Fullerton will host a symposium on hy-draulic fracturing on Sept. 23, the first event of its kind held in Fuller-ton. Experts will discuss the impacts of the pro-cess—commonly known as fracking—in North Or-ange County.

Fracking is the process of injecting sand and flu-ids at high velocity into shale rock formations, al-lowing the natural oil and gas trapped in them to be extracted. It has sparked controversy in recent years as questions over possible pollution and seismic ef-fects have surfaced.

Earlier this year, a 5.1 magnitude earthquake struck the city of La Hab-ra and was felt in nearby cities including Brea and

Fullerton. Since then, the community has questioned whether fracking could be increasing seismic activity along with other hazards.

The community will gather to learn about po-tential environmental im-pacts related to frack-ing, including air quality, earthquakes and contami-nation of groundwater and drinking water.

There are many legit-imate concerns that the community has the op-portunity to address, in-cluding the usage of water during oil extractions in a time of a serious drought.

David Bowman, interim dean of the College of Nat-ural Sciences and Mathe-matics, will moderate the panelists and direct ques-tions to the appropriate experts. The symposium is expected to have a high attendance rate with 430 RSVP’s so far, Bowman said.

“Universities are more than just a place where

students go to get an ed-ucation,” Bowman said. “We’re a resource for the entire community. This is part of what our role is, particularly as a public institution.”

The goal of the sympo-sium is to provide impar-tial information and allow residents and policymak-ers to gain a better under-standing of what is hap-pening in the community regarding oil drilling to make informed decisions, Bowman said.

Event organizers were able to get academic ex-perts from independent agencies, including the Trent Rosenlieb, the asset manager for Linn Energy, a major oil and natural gas company in Brea.

“Our job is to tell people what is actually happen-ing, so you have the facts behind what’s going on to understand the hazards,” Bowman said.

CSUF to host fracking symposium

Woman falls from Eastside structure

OLLIlecture series resumesWednesday concert series returns

A 53-year-old woman fell from the Eastside Parking Structure at Cal State Ful-lerton in an attempted sui-cide Wednesday evening, according to University Police.

The woman, who is not a student, staff or faculty member was conscious and breathing but unresponsive, police said. She was trans-ported to Western Medical Center. Her current condi-tion is not known.

This is the second time someone has fallen from the Eastside Park-ing Structure in the past three weeks. On Aug. 22, an unidentified male stu-dent died after he fell from the same structure. Police could not confirm his fall as a suicide.

If you or somebody you know are experiencing suicidal thoughts, contact Counseling and Psycholog-ical Services at (657) 278-3040. Suicide prevention resources can also be found at www.suicide.org.

A series of lectures that aims to tackle issues affect-ing the university will re-sume Tuesday.

The Tales of a Great Uni-versity series will host speak-ers from one of Cal State Fullerton’s eight colleges and from Associated Stu-dents Inc. The series will also host CSUF’s head finance administrator.

The series has been facil-itated by the CSUF chapter of the Osher Lifelong Learn-ing Institute (OLLI), a pro-gram that encourages retired or semi-retired people to be-come engaged in campus life and campus learning activ-ities, OLLI president Mark Stover said.

Stover said the unique ben-efit of the series is that it isn’t limited to individuals in their golden years. People of all ages are welcome to attend as each Tuesday speaker ad-dresses another issue affect-ing a college on campus.

He thinks it’s important for people of all ages to be engaged with lectures like those provided by OLLI be-cause they’re informative and can often lead to important discussions.

Ukraine gov. signs ceasefire

Metrolinkusageplummets

Immigration decision delayed

DTBRIEFS

- SAMUEL MOUNTJOY

- CYNTHIA WASHICKO

Ukrainian Presi-dent Petro Poros-henko announced a ceasefire agree-ment with pro-Rus-sian rebels in the country, although there is skepticism as to how long the truce will last, ac-cording to the Los Angeles Times.

Igor Plotnitsky, a negotiator for the separatists, said the ceasefire does not mean the rebels will end their drive for independence from Ukraine.

Ukraine has ac-cused Russia of supplying arms and supplies to the reb-els, although the Kremlin disputes that claim. More than 2,900 peo-ple have been killed and almost 600,000 have been displaced over the course of the five-month long fight.

Metrolink has seen its annual rid-ership decrease by almost 595,000 passengers since 2008, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The loss of riders has also impacted the commuter line’s annual revenue, which has resulted in the hiking of fares or paring down of service locations.

Metrolink officials mostly blame the re-cession – the worst since World War II – on the downturn.

The recession has exacerbated the un-employment rate, meaning fewer rid-ers are using the train to commute to work.

More residents living in Los Angeles adds to the reduc-tion in riders.

President Barack Obama has decided to delay any execu-tive action on immi-gration reform until after the November midterm elections, he said in an inter-view with NBC’s Chuck Todd.

The immigration debate, Obama said, has shifted as a re-sult of the influx of u n a c c o m p a n i e d children from Lat-in America in recent months.

His decision to de-lay comes as part of an attempt to pre-vent the issue being used to score politi-cal points during the coming elections. Despite the delay, Obama has said he will take action on the issue by the end of this year.

Glass on vending machines broken

Robert Graves, Ph.D, Southern California Co-ordinator for the Earth-quake Hazards Program of the U.S. Geological Survey, will be attending the symposium to discuss the possible relation be-tween earthquakes and oil extractions.

Southern California sits on a boundary between tectonic plates, making earthquakes part of our lives, Graves said. It is un-likely that fracking was the cause of the quake in March, Graves said.

The university hopes to provide enough expertise on these issues to educate the community and city officials.

The public and policy-makers planning to attend are encouraged to sub-mit their questions in ad-vance to avoid duplicate questions.

Questions can be sub-mitted via Nsm.Fullerton.edu/Fracking.

The symposium will be held in the Titan Student Union (TSU) on Sept. 23 starting at 6 p.m. It will also be streamed live on the Internet.

Two separate but apparent-ly related vending machine vandalisms were report-ed on Wednesday, Aug. 24, University Police confirmed Friday.

Glass was broken on the two machines, but items did not appear to be stolen in both cases, said University Police Capt. John Brockie.

The first of the two in-cidents occurred outside Langsdorf Hall, Brockie said.

The outer layer of glass on an Aquafina vending ma-chine was broken, but the lay-er underneath the first layer remained intact.

The other vending machine that was vandalized was lo-cated near the Humanities Building. The outer glass on that machine was also broken.

In both instances, a vend-ing machine company was called and both machines were repaired, Brockie said.

At this time, police officials are not investigating the inci-dent to determine who might have broken the glass.

“We’re always search-ing for people who commit crimes, but we don’t have any

leads at this time on either of these,” Brockie said.

Vending machine vandal-ism is a rare occurrence on campus and it’s likely that the perpetrator who caused the first vandalism was also re-sponsible for the second, giv-en the method of operation and time period for both van-dalisms, Brockie said.

Students who see vandal-isms occurring are encour-aged to call 911 so police officials can arrive in time to apprehend the suspect, or to stop a vandalism or break-in.

Anyone who has informa-tion regarding the vandalisms should call University Police at (657) 278-2515.

“All of us wear many hats,” Stover said. “We’re students, but we’re also voters and tax-payers, and we interact with other taxpayers and voters. And it’s good sometimes to heighten the level of conversa-tion about things affecting the university.”

Provost Jose L. Cruz, who spoke of the importance of higher education, discussed Cal State Fullerton students who have been the first in their families to go to college and achieve great things af-terward. Former dean for the College of the Arts, Joe Ar-nold, discussed deviating from a CSU mandate for a large performance facility and how that has actually been good for that college, Stover said.

“It’s those types of insights that really make the presen-tations interesting,” Stover said.

Tales of a Great University in a Period of Unprecedented Change will take place from 10 a.m. -11:30 a.m. every other Tuesday, with the exception of one lecture, at the Mackey Au-ditorium inside the Ruby Ger-ontology Center.

Brown, Kashkari face off in debate

Check out our daily Instagram posts!Including exclusive photos,

behind-the-scenes shots and previews of stories before they go to print.

@theDailyTitanfollow us on

Incumbent Democrat-ic Gov. Jerry Brown faced down Republican opponent Neel Kashkari in a fiery de-bate Thursday.

Heading into the debate, Brown was ahead of Kash-kari in a Sacramento Bee poll by 16 points.

Kashkari, an aerospace engineer from Ohio, grew up in a middle-class family as a first-generation Amer-ican. The story of his start in bagging groceries to now running for California gov-ernor is his inspiration. He said his story can be any-one’s story.

Brown, who has served as California’s governor in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, is running for his fourth term in office. He takes credit for reducing the state’s debt and increasing the number of jobs.

“We lost 1.4 million jobs. Since I’ve been elected, al-most 1.3 million have come back to California,” Brown said.

Kashkari’s main focus is rebuilding the middle class. He said California is not the booming economy it once was and not the recovering

state Brown claims it to be. Taking a tip from the 1980 Reagan campaign “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” Kashkari repeatedly asked, “Is your family back? ... I don’t think we’re back.”

A favored comeback from Brown was “I feel like I’m getting a sales pitch.”

One hot topic during the debate was rising univer-sity costs. Brown pointed out that under his adminis-tration, community college students rarely have to pay tuition under the Board of

Governors waiver. Kashkari focused on

universities as well, argu-ing that since California’s schools are funded per stu-dent, the incentive to accel-erate graduation is lost.

“They are incentivized to collect students, hoard them on campus, not to

just graduate them, not to move them along and get the classes that they need,” Kashkari said. “So the first thing I would do as gov-ernor is change the incen-tives so the universities

are focused on student out-comes. We have to put stu-dents first.”

On another topic, Cali-fornians voted to fund the high-speed rail in 2008. Brown argued that the rail

will “create jobs where they need it most.” Kashkari, however, argued that fund-ing the rail will affect gas prices.

Contrarily, Kashkari said he’d cancel the rail and use

the voter-approved money towards building up Cali-fornia’s water storage.

“Vote in this election. It really matters,” said John Myers, moderator of the debate.

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) of Cal State Fullerton has partnered up with Steam-ers Jazz Club and Cafe for their annual Saturday Jazz Series.

The sixth annual Jazz Series began on Saturday, Sept. 6, and continues on Saturday, Sept. 13. Both

of the two-part public se-ries will be featuring per-formances by the event or-ganizer Joe Lawton, Mike LeVan and The Docs.

The event attendees can expect a group of profes-sional musicians covering jazz music under particular themes.

The first Saturday Se-ries theme featured pop-ular contemporary music by both Ella Fitzgerald and Diana Krall.

The musicians provid-ed their spin of 20th cen-tury icon jazz vocalist and

piano player Fitzgerald, and 21st century jazz vo-calist Krall. The audience will also have the oppor-tunity to participate in a historical recital discuss-ing the two musicians in depth.

The goal of both the affiliates is to create a “semi-educational” jazz class that will both play and deliver a knowledge-able history of the music they are performing for their audience.

“All of the players in the group will be playing and

improvising on this music (I’ll be leading). And basi-cally that’s what jazz is all about, it’s about taking an underlying piece of music, playing it and then impro-vising around it. And that’s what we do. That’s what I do,” Lawton said.

The series was originally organized by Lawton, who is a saxophone player and a medical school graduate. Lawton played the saxo-phone in his high school years over 50 years ago. Since then, he has been in-terested in jazz, and for the

sixth year has had the op-portunity to organize this event and present his work at Steamers.

OLLI and Steamers cu-rate the event once every month during the fall and spring semester, and once during the summer.

“I would hope that may-be some students from Cal State (Fullerton) would come. It’s free and it’s open to the public. I think it might be interesting for students to hear this kind of music. You don’t hear it very often unless you have

a peculiar interest in jazz,” Lawton said.

The Jazz Series at Steamers will take place on Sept. 13 from 12:30-2:30 p.m. at Steamers Jazz Club and Cafe in Fullerton. It is a free event and chil-dren are welcome.

OLLI will also be pre-senting musical perfor-mances by members of OLLI and the CSUF School of Music in the Ruby Gerontology Center’s Mackey Auditorium on Sept. 16, Sept. 30, Oct. 14, Oct. 28 and Dec. 2.

Cal State Fullerton’s Begovich Gallery is host-ing an art exhibition that will bring awareness to the homeless from Sept. 6 through Oct. 11.

There are 22 national and international students participating in the exhibi-tion to advocate for those individuals living on the margins of society.

The outcome of the ex-hibition is to highlight the social activism and coopera-tion to open the discussion on homelessness and the need to make a social change.

The artists will put on an array of different me-diums including video, print, installations and sculptures.

The art displays will portray the difficult chal-lenges these homeless in-dividuals face on a daily

basis, and give an inside look to life on the streets.

On the exhibit’s opening night, Sept. 6, the gallery put on a preview and an open discussion with art history professor and Act-ing Gallery Director, Jo-anna Roche, and curator

Joanne Mace.The art exhibit hopes to

reduce the stigmas and la-bels that are attached to a majority of homeless indi-viduals, and to reduce or eliminate the prejudice as well.

The exhibit wants to ed-

ucate and actively unite the community to help end homelessness.

While the exhibition is open, they will be accept-ing donations in order to help the homeless.

Donations of new or gently worn clothing,

blankets, sleeping bags, bus passes, toiletries and gift cards will be accepted at the gallery.

There is a high demand for socks to be donated for the cause.

These donations will be distributed to the lo-cal homeless individu-als by the Coast to Coast Foundation.

Seeing the Invisible: Life on the Streets is open Monday through Thursday from 12-4 p.m. and Satur-day from 12-2 p.m.

Parking is free on week-ends or after 5 p.m. during the week. A daily parking permit can be purchased for $8.

The art exhibit is free to all who are interested in attending.

The organization will be hosting a multicultur-al foods festival during the concert, Munoz said.

Putting together such a lineup took some work from Munoz. The concert orga-nizer said there’s a process she goes through to make sure a band will be a good fit for the Wednesday con-cert series.

“I’m just heavily involved with the local music scene, so I hear about different bands all the time,” Munoz said. “When I get a band, I get a list going, and I just go through all of their music.”

Munoz said she does this in the hopes of giving stu-dents a quality concert experience.

“I try to find live videos to see what their feel is so that way we can really put on a good event for our stu-dents,” she said. “So that way it’s a good vibe and people will want to sit there and eat their lunch and not plug their ears. That’s some-thing we’re hoping for.”

The fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri by police officer Darren Wil-son highlights the serious race problem in America as it pertains to police bru-tality and its prevalence in African-American commu-nities across the nation.

Brown was killed by Wilson after Brown al-legedly reached for the of-ficer’s gun and attacked him. Eyewitnesses, includ-ing Brown’s friend Dorian Johnson, claimed Wilson tried to pull Brown into his car by his shirt; after Brown got away he began to run while Wilson fired multiple shots, ultimately resulting in Brown’s death. For the African-American community, the tragic sto-ry of Brown is becoming a story all too familiar.

The racial divide over this case is strikingly ev-ident. About four-to-one (80-18 percent), Afri-can-Americans say the shooting in Ferguson rais-es important issues about race that merit discussion, according to a recent Pew Research Center poll. This racial divide is indicative of the lack of understand-ing and experiences faced by whites and blacks.

Oscar Grant, Sean Bell, Eric Gardner, John Craw-ford, Ezell Ford and Mi-chael Brown are all clear examples of how the words unarmed and black are be-coming synonymous with police shootings. In Gard-ner’s case, he was choked to death, but the concept remains the same.

Far too often; black men who are unarmed and pose no threat, are killed by un-necessary police violence.

A FBI report cited by USA Today revealed that be-tween 2006 and 2012, a white police officer killed a black person nearly twice a week. This star-tling trend needs to be ad-dressed. There also needs to be more advocacy for community policing in black neighborhoods in a way that will produce actu-al changes.

Brown’s death gained na-tional press, even prompt-ing President Barack Obama to issue a statement on the incident. Addition-ally, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is opening an independent federal inves-tigation into the matter.

Brown’s death sparked interminable amounts of outrage and public un-rest within the Ferguson community. Protests last-ed for more than 10 days in the city, with protest-ers demanding justice and more importantly answers; something the Ferguson Police Department have been reluctant to give since day one. It took a week for Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson to release the name of Wilson. When he did release the name, Jack-son also released a sur-veillance video, allegedly showing Brown shoplifting some cigarillos at a conve-nience store.

Many perceived this to be a character assassina-tion attempt and as an at-tempt to justify Brown’s death.

The fact that Jackson came out publicly and stated that Wilson had no knowledge of the robbery Brown was allegedly in-volved in, and it wasn’t the reason he stopped Brown in the first place, angered many people and added fuel to an already burning fire in Ferguson.

The aftermath of Brown’s death, while secondary, is a story in itself. Hundreds

of protesters were arrested, tanks were on the ground and many protesters were shot with tear gas canis-ters. The National Guard was even called in to calm the quarrel.

For Ernest Bridges, a 71-year-old Cal State Ful-lerton African-Ameri-can Studies professor, the sight of tanks and tear gas during protests is nothing new.

“That’s not the first time in my life I’ve seen that. I’ve seen it in the ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s. Each generation since the ‘50s have experienced some kind of retaliation by our police; local, state and fed-eral,” Bridges said. “In the ‘50s you had the boycotts with local police, local National Guard and state militias.”

Bridges said he does not believe blacks are becom-ing desensitized to police killings, and thinks there are some deeper rooted issues that need to be ad-dressed in the Ferguson community.

“Why is it that a com-munity like Ferguson that’s 65 percent black, has only three black police officers on the force. What is it about that community that feel blacks can’t govern or police themselves. Right there is some breakdown of communication,” Bridg-es said.

Whether it’s with Russia, or the tensions between Is-rael and Gaza, America al-ways seems to play the role of international police and preach to the other coun-tries about fair treatment of its citizens.

However, in the same breath we also have guns, tear gas and tanks aimed towards peaceful protesters who were simply exercis-ing their First Amendment rights. It’s a terrible double standard America has ex-hibited in Ferguson.

Last week, American journalist Steven Sotl-off was videotaped being beheaded by Islamic ex-tremists, making him the second American to be be-headed this past month.

Three weeks prior to this incident, James Foley was videotaped being beheaded by a member of the same group, Islamic State of Iraq and Syria(ISIS).

After two beheadings caught on tape, there is no question that ISIS is a threat to America.

If ISIS were not a glob-al terror organization but instead a madman running around beheading U.S. journalists, there would be no question what our policy would be in that scenario.

On Aug. 28, almost two months after ISIS entered Iraq, President Barack Obama, in a news confer-ence, admitted that he has yet to come up with any real plan for ISIS.

“We don’t have a strat-egy yet,” said President Obama.

This statement was made before the second beheading.

How many more times does this have to happen before it’s worth develop-ing a strategy?

Those men were sons, brothers, and friends to people.

The execution of any American by a terrorist or-ganization should be con-sidered an act of war.

The terrorists are send-ing us a message.

Meanwhile, a more pro-active Britain isn’t holding its breath waiting for an-other terror attack.

British Prime Minister, David Cameron, is already taking precautions.

Last Monday, Cameron raised his country’s terror threat level from substan-tial to severe, as both Ji-hadists responsible for the beheadings had British ac-

cents and are believed to be British citizens.

British police now have the power to seize pass-ports of suspected Jihadists traveling to Iraq or Syria.

Although such a strong executive response would probably be met with deafeningly loud oppo-sition here in America, it wouldn’t be the first time we’ve given up such liberties in the name of security.

After all, the U.S. did pass the Patriot Act.

Cameron has also given the United Kingdom’s law enforcement the power to place travel bans on any citizens who are flagged by their intelligence.

All these efforts are made in hope to track their own home-grown terror-ists.

It appears that Britain has taken all the expect-ed precautions one might expect a nation to take, whereas the U.S. appears to be caught on their heel.

White House Press Sec-retary John Earnest said we are not at war with ISIS when asked on MSNBC’s

show, All In with Chris Hayes, last Tuesday.

This denial that we are not at war with ISIS needs to stop.

The action taken by ISIS clearly shows that not only are they hostile towards the U.S., but clearly want to inflict harm in the most brutal fashion possible to the U.S.

ISIS’ violent ways can be

compared easily with the logic behind school shoot-ings. The object of the shooter is mass murder.

The authorities have no choice but to take the shooter down.

Why would this concept be any different on a glob-al scale?

When President Obama was in Estonia, he spoke at a news conference and said some words of assurance.

“It’s not only that we’re going to be bringing to jus-tice those who perpetrated this terrible crime against these two fine young men,” he said.

“More broadly, the Unit-ed States will continue to lead a regional and inter-national effort against the kind of barbaric and ulti-mately empty vision that ISIL represents.”

However, at this mo-ment, the President hasn’t made any executive actions against ISIS.

Time is of the essence, and hopefully President Obama will take a more decisive stance when he addresses the nation about ISIS on Wednesday.

The home opener of the George Kuntz era did not go as planned, as two goals from San Francisco’s Mi-guel Aguilar sunk the Ti-tans 2-1 on Friday night at Titan Stadium.

The game was riddled with more than 40 penal-ties, including one red and five yellow cards.

The Titans surrendered two penalty kicks on the night, one of which proved to be the difference maker.

While Titan goalkeep-er Jeff Salt was able to save the first attempt, the sec-ond was buried by Aguilar as the Dons held on to take down the winless Titans.

The game-winning penal-ty kick was set up when Ful-lerton defender Colin Okirie was ejected from the game following a red card in the

72nd minute after a foul was whistled in the box.

The untimely penalty forced the Titans to play a man down for the re-maining 18 minutes of the match.

Despite the disadvantage for the latter part of the game, the Titans still out-shot the Dons 11-6 in the game.

Both teams had five cor-ner kicks in the match, but San Francisco was able to cash in on more of their op-portunities than Fullerton.

The Titans got on the board first in the 18th min-ute when junior Julian Okai scored on a free kick just two yards outside of the box.

Okai’s shot was blast-ed past senior goalkeeper Chase Hauser into the upper right corner of the net.

San Francisco responded just minutes later, netting the equalizer in the 21st minute after a free kick by David Romney was direct-ed across the goal by Davi

Ramos, who set up Agui-lar for his first goal of the game.

The game was also a homecoming for San Fran-cisco head coach and for-mer Cal State Fullerton All-American Eddie Soto.

Soto was a two-time All-American selection during his time as a Titan.

After the tough defeat, the Titans traveled to San-ta Barbara for a neutral site match against Northwestern University.

The Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team com-bined for 10 shots, four on goal, against the Northwest-ern Wildcats Sunday af-ternoon but were unable to

finish the job, resulting in a double overtime 0-0 tie.

The Titans (0-2-2) are still seeking their first win of the young 2014 season.

Salt was one of the few bright spots of the match, using all of his 6-foot-6-inch frame to save six po-tential goals, putting him at 20 saves for the season.

The foul-plagued game saw the referees call 21 in-fractions, six on the Ti-tans and a substantial 15 on Northwestern, including one red card from senior de-fender Nikko Boxall.

Although Fullerton end-ed the game with two more shots overall, the Wild-cats were by far the more

aggressive team, being able to attempt 10 corner kicks to the Titans three.

Half of the Titans’ offen-sive production came from the dynamic duo of Okai and junior forward Dyllan Stevens.

Both had two shots and one on goal respectively.

Six other Titans also had opportunities at the goal, but were unable to reach the back of the net.

The Titans are averag-ing a little more than 10 shots per game in their four games, but have only scored a sorrowful three goals, giving them a shot percent-age of 7.3 percent.

The Wildcats were led by

junior midfielder Cole Mis-simo, who scorched the Ti-tan defense with three out of three shots on goal.

Fortunately for Fuller-ton, Salt was able to come off his line on each attempt, racking up half of his total save opportunities for the game.

Although the Titans did not end up with an ideal re-sult, they were able to hold their own against a tough team which should serve as a confidence booster lead-ing to this weekend’s Nike UNLV Invitational in Las Vegas where they will face Detroit on Friday and the University of Maryland, Baltimore on Sunday.

The Cal State Fullerton men’s golf team will get their 2014-2015 season un-derway in Westlake Village at the Southwestern Inter-collegiate on Monday and Tuesday.

This will be the Titans’ first appearance in this tournament since the pro-gram was reinstated in 2009-2010.

With multiple Pac-12 and Big West opponents in the field, the Southwestern Intercollegiate should be

one of the more challeng-ing events for CSUF this season.

The Titans ended last sea-son ranked No. 66 in the nation according to Golf-stat.com, making them one of six teams ranked in the top 75 heading into the tournament.

The highest ranked team in the field is Stanford, com-ing in with a No. 3 ranking, while Pac-12 rivals USC, Arizona and Washington State come in ranked 33, 82 and 98, respectively.

Big West rivals UC Davis and Cal State Northridge will be in the tournament field, entering at No. 64 and No. 175, respectively.

San Diego State (No. 41), San Diego (No. 71), Pep-perdine (No. 97), Loyola Marymount (No. 115) and Hartford (No. 159) round out the field.

“It is a great opportuni-ty to be among the top-tier field at the Southwestern In-tercollegiate,” Head Coach Jason Drotter said.

“Tournaments such as those can really build character for our stu-dent-athletes as we ma-ture toward the Big West Championship.”

The Titans will look to build on their second con-secutive Big West Confer-ence title this coming year.

Drotter hopes to maintain

the success he has helped establish in recent years.

“We have a very strong schedule from top to bot-tom,” Drotter said. “Al-though we have much of the same goals and potential as last season, the elite level of competition during the fall will give us a good evalua-tion of where we will be as a team.”

Fullerton will hope to de-fend their title without the help of record-setter Mark Anguiano.

During his senior cam-paign, Anguiano tallied nine top-five finishes, in-cluding two individual med-alist honors and a tie for sec-ond place in the conference

championships. He was also the only

golfer to earn Big West golfer of the month multiple times (September, February and March).

Without Anguiano, the Titans will lean heavi-ly on senior Ryan Tetrault, who had 18 rounds of par or better in his 2013-2014 campaign.

Tetrault was a 2014 All-Big West member, totaling six top-10 finishes during the season.

Kyle De Silva and Josh Park also return for the Titans.

De Silva recorded six scores of par or better while Park had five.

The Titans will remain in the West for the entirety of their season, visiting Ari-zona, Colorado and Wash-ington for tournaments, while traveling all through-out California in the 2014 campaign.

The opening Southwest-ern Intercollegiate tourna-ment could prove to be the toughest test of 2014 for the Titans, but it will also serve as an important measuring point going into the heart of their schedule.

If the team can continue to build on their recent suc-cess, then a third consecu-tive Big West Conference crown will be within sight.

Women’s soccer continues to misfire

Volleyball splits at San Diego tournament

The Cal State Fullerton women’s volleyball team won two of four games at the San Diego State Univer-sity/University of San Diego 2014 Classic last weekend.

Game one did not go as planned for Head Coach Carolyn Zimmerman’s squad as the Titans fell to Northwestern in four sets. The Wildcats entered the game undefeated.

Northwestern had a bal-anced attack as four play-ers tallied double digit kills. Senior outside hitter Ye-wande Akanbi led the way with 17.

The only Titan to record double digit kills was fresh-man standout Niki With-ers, who had a game-high 20. The Titans had just a .139 hitting percentage, but Withers had a game-high .227.

Sophomore McKenna Painton led the way for the Titans defensively with 15 digs.

Junior setter Macken-zie Olsen matched a season high with 35 assists. Olsen is third in the Big West in assists per set with 10.04.

The Titans dropped eight of the first nine points in the first set and the Wildcats never looked back.

They lost the first set 25-12 and dropped the second set 25-19.

The third set was domi-nated by the Titans. Junior Holland Crenshaw recorded

four of her five kills for the match in the third set and Withers had six in the frame. The Titans hit an im-pressive .379 and ended the set on a 10-3 run.

The Titans had an early lead in the fourth set, but Northwestern went on a 7-0 run and took control of the match.

The Wildcats won the fourth set 25-18, and kept their undefeated streak alive.

Saturday was a more suc-cessful day for Fullerton.

They opened the day with a four set victory over Villa-nova at Aztec Court.

Despite winning in four sets, the Titans never domi-nated the match. Their larg-est margin of victory was just five points in the second set.

Villanova had four of five points to end the first set and score a 25-23 win. The Titans trailed 10-8 in the second set, but put togeth-er a 12-1 run to take control and win the set 25-20.

Crenshaw set a ca-reer-high with 18 kills in the match. She recorded the fi-nal kill of the match and hit .385 overall. Four Titans re-corded double-digit kills.

Freshman Stephanie Buss had a breakout game for the Titans with 13 kills and a .571 hitting percentage. Her five blocks led the team.

Olsen had her first dou-ble-double of the young 2014 season, recording a season-high 43 assists and 12 digs.

The Titans swept Brown in match two on Saturday.

Crenshaw led the way again for Fullerton with a

.591 hitting percentage and a team-high four blocks.

Her 13 kills were the sec-ond highest for the Titans behind Withers’ 14.

The Bears shot just .165 compared to the Titans who shot .337. Olsen had 36 as-sists along with five digs and two service aces.

The Titans dropped their final match of the weekend to San Diego State in four close sets at Aztec Court Sunday.

Painton and sophomore Rachel Brown led the de-fense with 11 and 10 digs respectively. Painton leads the Big West Conference

with 4.52 digs per set. Olsen tallied another 36 assists in the finale along with four kills and five digs.

Aztec hitter Kaja Sand-berg had a career-high 15 kills and a .519 hitting percentage.

Senior setter Chloe Mathis was aiming for

her fifth consecutive dou-ble-double for the Aztecs.

She came up short, but had a career-high 50 assists in the match.

The Titans (4-3) will trav-el to South Carolina this weekend to compete in three matches in the Col-lege of Charleston Classic.

The Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer team failed yet again to record their first victory of the season, after a 0-0 tie against Ore-gon State on Friday night at Paul Lorenz Field.

As has been the trend throughout the season, the Titans failed to put the ball into the back of the net despite creating a plethora of goal-scoring opportunities.

Against the Beavers, the Titans had 18 shots to Ore-gon State’s 12.

The first shot of the match came from Titan striker Christina Burken-road, who recorded six shots during the game.

Her first effort, in the third minute, went wide of the net, failing to trouble Beaver goalkeeper Bella Geist.

In the 15th minute, Na-talie Higgins’ shot sailed over the Fullerton cross-bar, failing to trouble Titan goalkeeper Jennifer Stuart, who was making her first appearance of the season.

The first save of the night came in the 26th minute, when Burkenroad tried for goal again, this time put-ting her shot on frame.

Geist was equal to the striker’s effort and con-tinued to keep her goal intact.

For her part, Stuart had to wait until the 41st min-ute to make her first save of the night.

Oregon State’s effort came off a corner kick, but Maddie Misi could not get the ball past Stuart, who also made the final save of the first half after deny-ing Betty Forlin in the 44th minute.

In the 58th minute, Titan midfielder Amanda How-ard tried to succeed where her teammates had failed, but she too had her shot blocked.

While her teammates struggled up top, Stuart prospered in the back.

She made another save in the 68th minute, preventing Kayla Latham from putting the Beavers ahead.

Chapman tried again to produce on the attacking end for the Titans, but her shot in the 81st minute went high, and her attempt in the 83rd minute was blocked once again.

In an effort to get the im-portant go-ahead goal and to prevent another game from going to overtime, se-nior Colleen Ortega tried her luck in the 88th minute, but Geist again saved for the Beavers.

The second half of reg-ulation ended scoreless, forcing overtime.

The first half of overtime produced three shots, but no saves or goals. Oregon State’s Emma Jones fired wide in the 91st minute, while Fullerton’s Morgan Batcheller and Burkenroad also failed to shoot on goal, seeing their respective 97th and 99th-minute strikes go high and wide.

Geist ensured that the Titans did not score in the second half of overtime either.

She saved sophomore left back Jazzmin Mancilla’s attempt in the 107th minute of the game to ensure the draw.

The Oregon road trip continued to Eugene where the Titans battled the Ore-gon Ducks.

The Titans found their scoring boots again, but that could not help them as they suffered yet anoth-er loss, this time a 2-1 over-time defeat against the Or-egon Ducks at Papé Field.

The Ducks (4-1-1) went ahead in the 14th minute after senior midfielder Lil-ly Archer entered the Titan box down the left side.

Archer was able to get past Titan defenders Batch-eller and Mancilla, who was playing as a right back instead of her usual left back role. Stuart did well to time Archer’s touch and

was subsequently able to slide tackle the ball away.

However, the ball stayed in the box as both teams scrambled to recover possession.

Unfortunately for the Ti-tans, the ball struck strik-er Rebecca Wilson in the hand and the referee blew the whistle for the penalty.

Archer stepped up and converted the penalty shot to put the Ducks up 1-0.

The Titans quickly re-sponded to the deficit.

Burkenroad got off a shot on the other end, but

Oregon’s goalkeeper Abby Steele seemed to get the slightest of touches on the ball, deflecting it to the corner.

Wilson atoned for her earlier mistake in the 19th minute by scoring the Titans lone goal of the game.

She received a perfect pass and immediately ran past the Oregon center backs.

Steele tried to close the angle, but Wilson remained composed and shot low and to her left, bringing the

score to 1-1.The Ducks tried to get

ahead in the 35th min-ute through Kira Wagon-er, who found herself in the Fullerton box.

However, Stuart saved the Titans again, this time doing well to get low and palm Wagoner’s close-range shot into the corner.

Neither team was able to score for the remainder of regulation.

The Titans were once again forced to go to overtime.

Both teams failed to

trouble their opponents’ keeper in the first half, and the score remained 1-1.

The Ducks piled up the pressure in the second half of overtime, forcing the Titans to play on the counter.

The writing was on the wall for Fullerton, whose defense finally conceded the golden goal off junior forward Brooke Strawn in the 108th minute.

The Titans (0-4-2) will play again Friday, Sept. 12 against the Fresno State Bulldogs on the road.

After winning both matches Saturday, the Titans lost to co-host San Diego State Sunday
