The CSUN baseball team will be playing this afternoon at Matador Field against the UC Irvine Anteaters at 3 p.m. The team has had a rough season, with a conference record of 2-10 and overall record of 14-33. The Matadors did not have a successful April, having just two victories and twelve losses during that month.
The Matadors were able to end the season with a victory on Sunday after losing the first two games of Mountain Pacific Sports Federation tournament. CSUN women’s water polo team was able to come back and beat the UC Santa Barbara Gauchos 11-6. The team ended the season winning four out of their last six games, to improve their record to 16-19, which put them in 11th place in the MPSF.
The 2007 Major League Baseball season has finally begun, and so has the countdown to Barry Bonds breaking the all-time home run record. As of Sunday, Bonds has 735 career home runs, needing only 21 more to break Hank Aaron’s all-time record of 755. If Bonds stays healthy, there is little doubt he will break the record and become the all-time leader in home runs.
There is no doubt CSUN is a university that lacks something other institutions such as UCLA and USC have. Yes, we do not have a football team or a prestigious sports program, but those are not it. It is such a problem that the University Student Union and Associated Students have gone to great lengths to do something about it.
It is once again March, the month of madness in sports. It is a month in which every university basketball team is fighting for an invitation to one of the biggest parties in sports. It is the month where everyone, all of a sudden, becomes an expert in “bracketology” and knows the weaknesses and strengths of every team (mainly thanks to ESPN).
There is no place like home for the Matadors, as they got another home victory on Wednesday against the UC San Diego Tritons. The Tritons left Norhtridge without winning a single game, as the Matadors won 7-0, dominating the match winning all three doubles matches and six singles.
After a promising start on Friday, the Matadors dropped their last two games of the series against the Washington State Cougars and now have an overall season record of 8-6. After a 5-3 comeback victory on Friday and a tough 10-12 loss on Saturday, the Matadors struggled to connect with the ball on Sunday, managing just three hits and one run in a 1-6 loss to the Cougars.
