Thursday December 6, 2018 The Student Voice of State University, Fullerton Volume 104 Issue 43 Lions maul Titans 59-49 in Titan Gym Wednesday marked the first home loss for men’s basketball this season.

JARED EPREM Sports Editor

Cal State Fullerton basketball suffered its first home defeat of the season Wednesday night, losing to Loyola Marymount University 59-49. Since the start of the 2017 season, the Titans have failed to score 50 points on only two oth- er occasions: last season’s road opener against USC and the NCAA Tournament first-round game against Purdue. “(Loyola Marymount) played a different brand of team bas- ketball. The shots that they took were the shots that they wanted to get. The shots that we took were non-aggressive ... versus working to get the kind of shots that we know we can take and make,” head coach Dedrique Taylor said. CSUF shot 34.8 percent from the field and hit only two of its 19 3-point attempts.

RILEY MCDOUGALL / DAILY TITAN SEE DEFEAT 8 Guard Kyle Allman led Cal State Fullerton with 14 points. He was one of two Titans to reach double figures in the game.

Mateo Tannatt grew up in as a “by-product of UCLA,” where he was raised in student housing by his parents, who attended the university. “My dad studied literature and I believe some linguistics, and my mom (studied) psychology and child development. She got her Ph.D. while I was in elemen- tary school at UCLA,” Tannatt said. He went to Seeds University Elementary School, an exper- imental school with an uncon- ventional approach to teaching that was located on the campus grounds. The teachers were not referred to by titles like Mr. or Mrs., and students weren’t given grades, he said. Tannatt is now Cal State Ful- lerton’s newest faculty member in the art department where he teaches sculpting. He said he found his passion for art at a very young age, even though art classes were limited at his school. Students had to be nominated to take the class, and he was chosen.
