Appearing in its 14th straight Mountain West Tournament semifinal, the top-seeded San Diego State Aztecs downed the No. 5 Nevada Wolf Pack 77-70 Friday evening in Las Vegas, Nev.
Friday marks the fourth time in the last six seasons where the Aztecs have ousted Nevada from the Mountain West Tournament. Since the both have been a part of the Mountain West, San Diego State has owned the Wolf Pack — boasting a lopsided 17-3 record (.850) in their 20 meetings.
Friday’s victory extends the Aztecs’ winning streak to 13. They will appear in to their fourth-straight Mountain West title game on Saturday.
