LOGAN — Trailing San Diego State by three with just 1.4 seconds to work with, the Aggies rested their hopes on a long-distance connection between two brothers.

But once again, the defensive savvy Aztecs were a little bit too much for Utah State to handle.

A three-quarters-court long inbounds pass from senior forward Grayson Moore to his younger brother, Jalen, was tipped away by SDSU forward Zylan Cheatham to finally secure a 70-67 road victory for the Aztecs Saturday night.
