What to Know
The Cal State Fullerton Titans and the Long Beach State Beach are set to clash at 11:30 p.m. ET March 12 at Dollar Loan Center in the fourth round of the Big West Conference Tourney.
The Titans earned some more postseason success in their contest this past Friday. They took down the Hawaii Warriors 58-46. It was another big night for Cal State Fullerton’s forward E.J. Anosike, who posted a double-double on 16 points and 13 boards.
Meanwhile, the Santa Barbara Gauchos typically have all the answers at home, but this past Friday Long Beach State proved too difficult a challenge. Long Beach State skirted by Santa Barbara 67-64 thanks to a clutch half-court bomb from guard Jadon Jones with 0:01 left to play. Guard Colin Slater took over for Long Beach State, finishing with 30 points (a whopping 45% of their total).
Barring any buzzer beaters, the Titans are expected to win a tight contest this past Saturday. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a two-game streak of ATS wins.
Cal State Fullerton came up short against the Beach when the two teams last met earlier in the regular season, falling 71-61. Can Cal State Fullerton avenge their loss, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll soon find out.
