FULLERTON, Calif. - The Cal State Fullerton Titans women's soccer team drew 3-3 with California Baptist on Saturday afternoon at home at Titan Stadium in their Big West regular season finale.

The Titans finished the regular season with a 10-3-6 overall record and 7-1-3 record in Big West play and will be the three seed in the upcoming Big West Championship.  The Titans and Tritons both finished with 24 points for the season, but the Tritons held the tiebreaker over the Titans after winning 2-1 over them on October 24th. 

The Titans were all over CBU in the first half, outshooting them 10-to-2 and holding the ball on their side of the field for most of the first 45 minutes.

The Titans struck first and struck early in the 3rd minute of the game.  Riley O'Brien won a ball at midfield and played a quick pass to Camryn Cruz.  Cruz dribbled up the field and sent a through ball to Kayalily Penn who beat the keeper's near post to put the Titans ahead.

The Titans led 1-0 heading into halftime.

After a couple shots from the Titans, the Lancers took the lead in the 69th minute.  There was a freekick on top of the box after a foul by the Titans defense.  Anja Jestrovic scored on a freekick to the upper 90 to give the Lancers a 2-1 lead. 

The Titans found an equalizer nearly four minutes later in the 73rd minute.  After a successful var review in the box on a possible handball, Cayla Oliveira stepped up and blasted a shot above the CBU keeper to make it a 2-2 game on her first goal fo the season.

The back-and-forth continued between both sides as the Lancers once again went ahead in the 77th.  After a defensive clearance went across the middle of the field to Anja Jestrovic.  She hit a knuckling ball to goal that Allison Craycroft mishandled and the ball trickled into the net to once again give the Lancers the lead. 

However, the Titans kept attacking and were rewarded in the 85th minute.  Isabella Contreras played a ball up the field that Shannon Nettekoven headed to Sail Bozinovic.  Bozinovic dragged two defenders to her side and sent across a ball a wide open Camryn Cruz who slotted it to the far corner to make it a 3-3 game.
