FULLERTON, CA - Quotes from players and coaches following Cal State Fullerton's 5-4 victory over UCLA that clinched a berth into the super regional round next weekend.

CAL STATE FULLERTON HEAD COACH Dave Serrano
"This win came the same way the season has... we had to fight and claw. When they got the leadoff man on in the ninth, I said what I've been using the last month and a half... 'if it was easy, everybody would be good'."

"I'm very proud of these guys. They handled a coaching change and stayed together. Now they have us where we wanted to be, in a Super Regional."

CAL STATE FULLERTON SENIOR RIGHTHANDER Jeff Kaplan
"This feels much better (than Saturday night). I struggled Saturday night and got hit pretty hard. I was hoping my teammates would give me a chance to get some revenge."
