The San Diego State Aztecs held off the Nevada Wolf Pack with a nail-biting 65-63 win at Viejas Arena Sunday. Nevada has now lost five straight for the first time all season and has suffered its first five-game conference losing streak since 2014-15.
In their last four meetings, San Diego State has outscored the Pack by just 16 points.
The shorthanded Wolf Pack, who without two of its top players for the third straight game, trailed by one with 5:14 remaining. A pair of Matt Bradley free throws followed by Nathan Mensah’s slam widened the Aztec advantage to 62-57 with 2:59 remaining.
