No. 25 San Diego State was reeling early in Thursday’s contest when the Fresno State men’s basketball team opened with 11 unanswered points.
But after Aztecs head coach Brian Dutcher called a timeout, San Diego State proved why they’re one of the top 25 college basketball teams in the country.
The Aztecs went on a 24-2 first-half run while the Bulldogs battled inconsistent play throughout, as Fresno State fell to San Diego State, 67-53.
The Aztecs (16-4, 10-3 MW) now move a half game back of second place in the Mountain West standings, while Fresno State (9-8, 7-8 MW) remains in sixth place.
