Senior Abby Prohaska stood near midcourt with a confident semi-smirk, shrugging as teammates rushed to join her while UC San Diego desperately signaled for timeout.
The guard’s steal then transition feed for a layup by fellow senior Mercedes Staples made the moment, highlighting a 10-0 run to end the game as SDSU rallied to top the host Tritons 72-60 on Thursday night, at LionTree Arena.
Down by four entering the fourth quarter, the Aztecs outscored UCSD 26-10 to close out their seventh straight win. Prohaska scored 9 of her 23 points in the final frame, netting both the team’s individual season high as well as her career best.
