I posted earlier that perhaps Fullerton should be ranked, based on how they pasted us in game two of our series, and the one run victory for us in game one. CSUN is not ranked, and to lose 9-3 based on our pitching and hitting is surprising. Further, as has been posted earlier, Fullerton and LB State have been tough opponents for us. It wasn't too long ago when Fullerton went to CWS at our expense.

Understood. But CSUN has a win over UCLA this season.

Anyone who played Div 1 baseball gets my respect. Sounds like your team was pretty good. Did you make it to the postseason?
BTW I taught economics at CSU East Bay for 37 years.
