Source: TheNewsTribune.com (Original Article)
GAME NOTES: Fresh off their biggest win of the season, the San Jose State Spartans try to keep up the effort as they entertain the New Mexico State Aggies in Western Athletic Conference action at The Event Center.
Having lost three of the previous four outings, the Spartans appeared to have their hands full against a streaking Louisiana Tech program on Thursday night, but as luck would have it SJSU was ready to play and logged an 87-76 win to halt a lengthy win streak by the Bulldogs. The victory was the second in the last three games for the Spartans, who are now 7-1 at home in 2009-10.
As for the Aggies, they are tied for first place in the WAC with Louisiana Tech because of the efforts of the Spartans. NMSU was also in action two nights ago out in Honolulu and needed a minor miracle to come up with a 71-69 win in the final moments to move to 5-1 in conference. The win was the fourth straight for the program and the ninth in the last 10 outings overall.
NMSU has dominated this series in recent years, winning nine in a row over the Spartans. The most recent victory, an 89-81 triumph last season, pushed the Aggies to a 27-10 mark all-time against SJSU.
Tied at 69-69 with the clock running down, Jahmar Young knocked down a running jumper with just 0.9 seconds remaining to give the visiting Aggies the two- point win at the Stan Sheriff Center two nights ago. Young finished the night with a game-high 26 points on 11-of-23 shooting from the floor, followed by Jonathan Gibson who tallied 19 points and logged four steals. Wendell McKines registered a double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds and Hamidu Rahman almost did the same with 12 points and nine boards in the win.
