Look out Omaha! The TITANS are coming!
Haha, okay it’s a bit early to really say whether the CSUF Titans will be going to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.  Yesterday, Utah got a taste of the Titan offensive power with a 18-2 win in the Regional opening game. On his own, Jered Clark had four hits and 3 runs driven in!
This year, CSUF is going for its 7th consecutive Regional Championship. I am confident that going for lucky number 7 wont be too hard for the Titans! We currently …

I’m not as politically savvy as I want to be.  My opinions aren’t well educated enough to tread above water in a great debate.  I’ll get there someday, still navigating the tides, I switched parties for November’s election and I’m still trying to figure out what ideals I truly believe in, as opposed to what I was raised on.  However, I do pride myself on being a patriot.  Among the many perks of turning 18, I thought I’d be happiest about the clubbing part (well, not in OC, but in LA!  I …
