The Cal State Fullerton men’s basketball team played their Eighth annual Blue/White Scrimmage Sat- urday at Titan Gym. The blue squad dominated the first half as they went on to a 94-36 victory. The blue came out firing on all cylinders and the white just could not match their intensity. Head Coach Bob Burton was sur- prised the game was so lopsided. “I think we are not ready to play a scrimmage yet, we only had seven days of practice,” Burton said. “The most important thing is that they got to play in front of some people. Last season, the Titans relied on Big West Conference Player of the Year Josh Akognon’s scoring, but this season they will have to find points from all sources. One of them is sophomore point guard Jacques Streeter, who led all scorers with a total of 22 points and seven assists. “Jacques really set the tempo, he controlled the whole game at the point,” Burton said. “I thought he was the difference.
