Cal State Fullerton 76, San Diego 70
San Diego Coach Brad Holland, who resigned as Fullerton’s coach after two seasons, was booed when he walked on the court for his first game back in Fullerton, but that was no more than a minor irritant compared to the loss in front of 1,025 in Titan Gym.
Ike Harmon scored 27 points to key the victory, which avenged a one-sided loss the Titans suffered last year in San Diego and gave Fullerton its fourth victory at home this season without a loss.
It didn’t come easily even though Fullerton (4-2) had a 19-point lead three minutes into the second half. San Diego (3-3) cut the deficit to 72-68 with a minute to go, but reserve guard Dane Plock intercepted a Torero pass and drove for a layup with 36 seconds left to assure Fullerton’s victory.
