Neemias Queta had 18 points, 12 rebounds, two assists and three blocked shots, and Brock Miller added 20 points on six 3-pointers to help the Aggies to their 11th consecutive victory, 83-64 over Colorado State in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum in Logan.
The Aztecs shot the lights out in the first 10 minutes, hitting nearly every shot they took. The onslaught was led by senior guard Terrell Gomez, who had 14 points in the game s first 12 minutes. The Aztecs led 28-4, then 38-12 and looked like they were going to run Colorado State out of the gym.
As it turns out that was just the first of several runs back and forth. The Aztecs didn t score for seven minutes and CSU went on a 21-2 run that cut the lead to single digits. SDSU led 40-33 at halftime.
Early in the 2nd half SDSU found its shooting touch again. Senior guard Jordan Schakel hit 3-pointers on back-to-back possessions to push the lead to 50-35, an outburst that was followed immediately by a 14-0 Rams run capped by an Adam Thistlewood layup that cut the lead to one at 50-49.
