A.B. Miller/UCLA's Curtis Shines in Super Regional
By Jon Gaede

The Titan's mighty bats and consistant pitching were too much for for the UCLA Bruin baseball team as they were swept in straight games. This means Fullerton will go to the College World Series in Omaha, for the 15th time.

Friday's first game was a 12-2 blowout as the ping of the aluminum bats could be heard from every Titan who walked to the plate. Game two was close until Matt Wallach (son of former Titan and Dodger Tim Wallach) hit a sharp single to put Fullerton ahead and on the road to Omaha.

UCLA's starting 3rd baseman Jermaine Curtis is a young team leader and future star.The AB. Miller (Fontana) graduate hit .500, 7 for 14 to get to the Super Regional. Curtis was named to the ALL-Regional team and also named the MVP.

Jermaine wears number 42 on his wrist band in honor of Jackie Robinson. Curtis, a multi tooled player with great speed, looks forward to earning a coveted UCLA degree and getting his team to the College World Series.
