Aimaq made 1 of 2 free throws to tie it 63-63 with 1:42 left and cap a 9-0 run.

Cal scored the first five points of the game before the Aztecs took their first lead at 10-8 on a slam dunk by Saunders.

A 10-3 run by the Aztecs gave them their biggest lead of the first half at 30-24 with 6:09 left before the break.

The Golden Bears managed to get back within a point before San Diego State eventually took a 39-34 lead into the break on a turnaround jumper by Trammell with three seconds left.

San Diego State point guard Lamont Butler picked up two early fouls and played just five minutes in the first half. The Aztecs were leading by seven when Butler picked up his third personal 1:49 into the second half, and he went to the bench shortly afterwards.

San Diego State didn't slow down, however, taking its first double-digit lead at 52-42 on a basket by Parrish with 13:37 left.
