San Diego State men’s basketball improved to 3-0 with a 86-61 win over Grand Canyon University on Nov. 13 at Viejas Arena. The game marked the Aztecs’ first-ever win over the Lopes dating back to 1980.
Here are three observations from the game.
GCU played tough defense from the beginning
From a defensive standpoint, GCU started the game with high energy by double-teaming the Aztecs. However, SDSU’s offense was efficient enough to combat those efforts.
Senior guard KJ Feagin said SDSU was able to adjust to the Lopes’ defensive efforts after the first timeout of the game.
