Game over: Matadors 90 Titans 64

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

Well. I don't think anyone expected a blowout as the Matadors' first road win of the season. But you know what they say: Eight time is the charm. CSUN is now 1-7 away from The Matadome. More importantly,...

Winding down

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

Not even Josh Akognon, the nation's third best scorer in games played through Dec. 21 (averaging 25.5 ppg.), has been able to get it going tonight. Minutes ago he was 3-of-11 from the field for eight points. The...

Great band

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

Fullerton's got the spirit, the cheerleaders and the band. Definitely some tunes I'd like in my ipod being played tonight by the Titan band. I'm going deaf, but in delight. Imagine if their team was...

Deon Tresvant…

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

Tresvant has given the Matadors a 59-42 lead with back-to-back three-pointers, even quieting these riled-up Fullerton fans. (Jenkins' three makes it 62-42). A small group of CSUN fans have made their...

Legends night at Fullerton

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

Ok so they're not so legendary right now, but the TItans also have brought out some former players. Scott Cuttley, whom last year led CSUF to the NCAA Tournament, is in attendance. Jonathan Heard tapped...

No problems in Fullerton at halftime

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

The Titans seem to have no business being on the court tonight. CSUN leads 40-24 at halftime and the home team doesn't even have any momentum going into the locker room. Their fans are spirited despite...

Matadors lead big in Fullerton

Alonso Tacanga December 30, 2008

CSUN seems to be in total control of the actions and leads 35-20 with 3:58 to go in the first half. Former Matadors Jayme Miller, who now plays in Holland, and Jonathan Heard (now a pro in Finland) just...

Matadors get blown out on the road

Alonso Tacanga December 23, 2008

The non-conference season is over and the Matadors (3-7) have unanswered questions and unexpected struggles to show for the 10-game, two-month span. San Diego State had little difficulty pushing them aside...
