Former Bulldogs receiver Bernard Berrian is drafted

behind one of the sofa cushions that withstood more than eight hours
of
anticipation and restless waiting on Saturday.
Once the phone was dug up from behind the cushion, Berrian answered.
His cell phone had been ringing throughout the day. Each time it

Staff Reports
Fresno State’s baseball team came back from
a Friday loss to Hawaii to win two of three games in the series.
The Bulldogs (19-25, 7-8 Western Athletic Conference) held off Hawaii
in a 13-8 win on Sunday at Beiden Field to move into
a third-place tie in the WAC with Nevada. Fresno State is still one
game behind Hawaii (24-15, 8-7) in the standings. Relief pitcher
Gil Infante tossed three and two-thirds scoreless innings to end
the
game. Infante (1-0) struck out the first
10 batters he faced before a ninth-inning single by Hawaii’s
Rocky Russo with two outs.More>>
