Aztecs Beat

SAN DIEGO (SDSU) - Nick Romero singled home Troy Hanzawa in the top of the 10th as San Diego State defeated Air Force, 5-4, Saturday afternoon in Colorado Springs. Romero's game-winning hit would not have been possible without the heroics of Aztec right fielder Pat Colwell, who hit a two-out solo homer in the top of the ninth to send the game to extra frames. The win allowed SDSU to keep pace with the league leaders as it improved to 27-21 overall and 12-7 in the Mountain West Conference.
