San Diego State beats Bulldogs for third time this season, will play Colorado State for berth in tournament final
beat Fresno State 53-46 on Thursday night at UNLV’s Thomas & Mack Center to advance to the semifinals of the Mountain West Tournament.
The Aztecs iced this game at the free throw line, but, really, it was won at the other end of the floor with Nathan Mensah, who showed why he was defensive player of the year in both postseason media and coaches awards. Adam Seiko and Chad Baker-Mazara, the Mountain West’s sixth man of the year, each had 11 points off the bench to lead the Aztecs . Trey Pulliam had 10 on a night when Matt Bradley had seven points and six turnovers after being national player of week with 80 points in his previous three games.Robinson had 25 points but five turnovers. His teammates totaled 21.
Midway through the half, one Aztecs assistant coach screamed, “Wake up, wake up,” at their players. After Aguek Arop and Adam Seiko muffed a handoff for yet another turnover, Dutcher called timeout and screamed as they walked to the huddle: “What are you doing???”
