California State University, Northridge wrapped up play at the Easton Classic with a hard-fought matchup against Portland State, falling 8–5 on the tournament’s final day. The Matadors showed resilience throughout the contest, staying competitive against a strong non-conference opponent.

A solid early-season test for CSUN Softball as the team continues to build momentum heading deeper into the 2026 season—and a reminder that high-level college athletics are happening right here in Northridge.

What people are excited 👇

I'm so excited to hear about Sourdough & Co. coming to Northridge.

Fresh sourdough bread and made-to-order meals sound absolutely perfect for our neighborhood. I've been craving a spot with quality ingredients and bold flavors, and this seems like it'll hit the spot.

It's great to see something new and delicious replacing that old Subway location. Can't wait to try their hot sandwiches and crisp salads.

Who else is looking forward to this opening?
