Maddi Utti’s late game heroics clinches share of MW title for ‘Dogs

The Fresno State women’s basketball team clinched a share of the Mountain West (MW) regular season championship thanks to the late game heroics by forward Maddi Utti, whose late steal and game-winning shot in the final seconds gave the Bulldogs a 78-76 win over San Jose State.

The game’s final minute was a back and forth affair between Fresno State (21-4, 14-0 MW) and San Jose State (15-9, 9-4 MW) and Utti was just one of many heroes for the ‘Dogs on Wednesday.

With 1:19 left in the game, San Jose State guard Fieme’a Hafoka knocked down a go-ahead 3-pointer to give the Spartans a two-point lead, 76-74.
