FULLERTON, Calif. – After a runner-up finish in the Big West Tournament, the Cal State Fullerton men's soccer team will host three spring matches at Titan Stadium in March, the coaching staff announced on Sunday.
The Titans kick off their spring homestand against the United Soccer League's Phoenix Rising FC this Thursday at Titan Stadium.

On Feb. 5th, Fullerton began its spring schedule with a 2-1 comeback victory against Toronto FC at Anteater Stadium in Irvine, Calif. The Titans trailed 1-0 through the first 45 minutes but went on to score two goals in the second half to beat the MLS club and start the spring off with a win.
Five days later, the Titans played another quality opponent in the USL's LA Galaxy II. The preseason scrimmage resulted in a 3-0 win for LA Galaxy II with Fullerton gained some top-notch experience by playing one of the better teams in the USL.
