The hardest thing to take was the way it ended for the Toreros (3-2), who don't play again until Dec. 17 when they host Seattle Pacific. USD trailed by as many as 11 points early in the first half and led by as many as 14 early in the second. Then USD watched the Titans score 14 unanswered points late in the game before taking the lead again. USD had a 66-64 lead with 1:31 remaining. And the Toreros had the ball. Then Fullerton turned a steal by guard Wayne Wil- liams into a 66-66 tie even though the ball never went in the basket. Bell was called for goal-tending on a jump shot by Titans forward Derek Jones. USD brought the bait up court once more, but Williams got another steal with 40 seconds left when Dottin at- tempted a bounce pass to senior guard Danny Means. Fullerton called time .with 33 seconds to play, then ran

Tribune Sportswriter USD's gaffle last night was a character builder. It was a chance to grow. It was a step in the right direction. It was a learning experience. It was all of those things. Euphemisms aside, it was also a heartbreaking, last-second 68-66 loss to Cal State Fullerton at the USO Sports Center. "Every game we take another step forward," said USO sophomore center Dondi Bell, whose 15 points were equaled by freshman teammate Gylan Dottin. ''Even though we may lose, it's still a learning experience. I think with every game we imP,rove more and more. 'For instance, we've had a problem throwing the bait inside and with execution. But I thought today we did a lot better job with execution. I think this was the game where we all came together and tried the hardest."

down the clock before Jones hit a 14-foot jumper with two seconds remaining. USD called time with one second left to set up a play. Toreros junior forward Craig Cottrell threw a halfcourt inbounds pass to Means, whose 28-footer was short at the buzzer "It's hard to take when you lose one like that," said USD coach Hank Egan, whose team has lost two straight after opening the season 3-0. "We showed some charac- ter. We got back in it, then got up. We just couldn't get it put away." Means, who had started 63 straight games dating back to his freshman season, was replaced in the lineup by senior guard Efrem Leonard. "I was a little upset, but Efrem deserved to start as far as the first four games are concerned," said Means. "I just wanted to start shooting better. I had _been in a

shooting slump. Tonight, I felt a lot better." Egan took Means out of the starting lineup, but he never took Means out of the game. That wasn't by design. Leonard picked up two fouls in the first minute. He was immediately replaced by Means. In addition to scoring 14 points for USD, Means tried to be a calming influence for the young Toreros. "I just felt we got a little excited when they made a run at us;" Means said. "I was trying to keep everything settled because even though they were making a run I thought we were m control. "But it got out of hand. There was a stretch where we didn't score any points." So what did the Toreros really learn from all this? • · "We can't relax at any time," said Means. "We had a big lead and we just settled in and thought we had the

Fullerton coach John Sneed said the Ti- tans' plans for the last shot called for it to be taken by Ceballos. But when USD kept the ball away from Ceballos, Jones t~k the opportunity to go one-on-one against Woods.

on baskets by Bell, Cottrell, Danny Means and Dottin in the first 2:41 of the second half, and the lead stayed at 10 or more until Fullerton em- barked on its 14-0 run. "It was all about defense," Sneed said. "This time of year the defenses are ahead of the offenses, and the team that was th~ sharpest on de- fense was going to win " Fullerton seems to be making a habit of coming back from second- half deficits. The Titans overcame a 13-point disadvantage to defeat Utah in their opener, and nearly gained the lead after falling behind Pepper- dine by 15 Tuesday. USD's next game is Dec. 17 against visiting Seattle Pacific.

"We took away Ceballos and we took away their other shooter (Hill)," Egan said. "The kid who hit it, Jones, hadn't hit that much before the last one." Jones was 5-for-9, and the Titans shot 51.9 percent (28-for-54) as a team. Bell, a 6-9 sophomore, made six of eight field-goal attempts, and USO shot 45 percent (27-for~O) over- all.
