The Mountain West Conference title is coming back to San Diego after the San Diego State men’s basketball team traveled to New Mexico to take on the Lobos in a thrilling 73-71 win that featured some heroics from an unlikely hero.
Lamont Butler is the name to know in San Diego as the junior guard reclaimed at least a share of the Mountain West championship for his Aztecs with his game-winning 3-pointer as time expired.
After the Lobos took the lead 71-70 with 5.6 seconds left, it seemed to be over for SDSU as the New Mexico crowd loudly made its presence felt.
