San Diego State men’s basketball defeated the University of Nevada 69-67 at Viejas Arena Saturday night, sweeping the series and collecting its ninth straight home victory against the Wolf Pack.
What a series it was.
Thursday and Saturday’s contests looked almost identical, with the Aztecs (9-2, 3-1 Mountain West Conference) and Wolf Pack (8-5, 3-3 MWC) going back-and-forth throughout nearly the entire game. The leads were miniscule, and when one team came out on top, the other immediately answered back.
The difference on Saturday was it came down to the final second came down to the final second for the Aztecs to claim the victory, as opposed to Thursday’s 65-60 win.
