Titans’ Williams Is Eligible for Softball This Season

The eligibility of Cal State Fullerton softball player Julie Williams has been approved for this season, Coach Judi Garman said Tuesday.

Williams, a shortstop who has played regularly the last two seasons, was held out of the season-opening doubleheader against Stanford Sunday until her eligibility could be confirmed by the university petition committee. Credit for a class she had taken had not been recorded, Garman said.
