DAVIS, Calif. - Cal State Fullerton scored six runs in the final three innings to overcome a 2-1 deficit on its way to a 7-2 victory over UC Davis, Saturday, in a Big West Conference softball game at La Rue Field.

Gonzales had an RBI-single in the top of the first to put the Titans up 1-0 before the Aggies came back in the bottom of the inning with two runs. With one out, Julie Stauder singled before advancing to third on an Emde double. With two outs, Harman provided the timely hit with a two-run single to give UC Davis a 2-1 lead.

It would stay that way until the fifth inning when Gonzales tied the game with a solo shot to left center. The Titans came back with four more runs in the sixth inning. Johnson's three-run homer with two-outs capped off the inning and gave Cal State Fullerton a 6-2 lead.
