CS Fullerton Loses, Feuds at Utah State
LOGAN, Utah — Five minutes after Cal State Fullerton lost again, 59-50, to Utah State, Coach Brad Holland could be heard screaming in the closed locker room.
Ten minutes passed. Twenty. The game officials emerged from their locker room, showered and packed. Still no Titans.
It wasn’t until 25 minutes after the game ended that the Titans, 2-10 overall and 0-4 in the Big West Conference, grimly walked out.
“We had a team meeting, no comment,†Holland said.
In a very winnable game, Fullerton managed season lows in points, points in a half (17 in the first), field-goal percentage (31.8%), rebounds (22) and offensive rebounds (five).
Holland and forward Winston Peterson (11 points, four rebounds) had words on the bench during a timeout at the three-minute mark, with Utah State (6-7, 3-2) leading, 47-39, and the game slipping away.
The Titans had pulled to within two, 39-37, with 6:33 left, but managed only two points in the next four minutes.
