Kell and Pope come full-circle for one last tournament dance

Malik Pope and Trey Kell embrace after the Aztecs won the Mountain West Conference tournament championship, 82-75, over New Mexico on March 10 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

San Diego State men’s basketball seniors Trey Kell and Malik Pope have been to the dance before.

The two co-captains came in together as freshman back in the 2014-15 season, which was also the year that the Aztecs made it to the NCAA tournament.

Both players averaged just over five points per game that year, and were right alongside their teammates as SDSU lost to Duke in the Round of 32.
