Aztecs thump UNLV, 14-5, to win MW tournament

SDSU celebrates on the field following its 14-5 win over UNLV on May 26 at Tony Gwynn Stadium.

San Diego State baseball entered Saturday needing just one win to clinch a championship.

Undefeated through two Mountain West Conference tournament games, a loss would have forced SDSU to play a winner-take-all game against University of Nevada, Las Vegas on Sunday.

The Aztecs did not have to wait until tomorrow to celebrate.

SDSU exploded for a five-run sixth inning to pull away from UNLV for the second time in as many nights, securing its fifth MW tournament championship in the past six years and dog piling on the field following a 14-5 victory on Saturday night at Tony Gwynn Stadium.
