We weren't able to capture every team but we snapped photos of Fullerton, Utah State, San Jose State, and Middle Tennessee on Saturday at the Titan Classic.

Every January before the first practice, Cal State Fullerton head softball coach Kelly Ford gathers her entire squad and whisks them to a mystery location away from campus for an overnight trip. The players have no knowledge of their destination until they arrive, or even how they’ll travel until it’s time to leave. It’s a chance to bond and promote team-building before the start of a long season. It’s also an opportunity for Ford to observe how each team can discover its personality.

Just like last year, the Titan Classic will serve as the opening weekend tournament for Cal State Fullerton. The Titans will be welcoming seven teams to Anderson Family Field for the four-day tournament, which runs from Wednesday, Feb. 6, to Sunday, Feb. 9.
