Aztecs Beat


SAN DIEGO (SDSU) - In a game that turned into a roller coaster ride over the final three innings, San Diego State came from behind to defeat Houston, 7-6, Saturday afternoon at Tony Gwynn Stadium. It was a contest that saw SDSU rally late to tie and go ahead, fall behind in the top of the ninth, then score twice in its final at bat to win for the fifth straight time. In the process, the Aztecs improved to 16-10 while the Cougars dropped their second game of the weekend series to fall to 16-9.


Track & Field Wins
The San Diego State track and field team won its second consecutive Cal-Nevada Championships team title, fifth since 2001 and fifth in the last six seasons in which it competed at the event. As a result, head coach Rahn Sheffield was awarded his fifth Cal-Nevada Coach of the Meet award. SDSU finished with 175 points, ahead of preseason No. 6 and second place UCLA, which finished with 124 points.


Tennis Rebounds
Following Friday's heartbreaking defeat to Harvard, the 48th-ranked San Diego State men's tennis team displayed tremendous resiliency on Saturday, posting a big 5-2 victory over No. 64 UC Santa Barbara in a non-conference dual at the UCSB Recreation Center Courts. The Aztecs (10-6) swept through doubles competition and captured four of six singles contests to halt the Gauchos' (9-5) six-match winning streak.
