COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Utah State Aggies have been eliminated from the NCAA Tournament.
An 8-seed facing the 9-seed Washington Huskies on Friday evening, the Aggies cut a 12-point halftime deficit to one at 54-53 with 9:51 remaining, but the Huskies flexed their muscles the rest of the way to get the win.
