Aztecs fall late to Utes in MWC Tournament Championship match
LAS VEGAS — It was the proverbial “dagger.” Utah guard Morgan Warburton’s 3-pointer with 2:57 left in the second half put the Utes up by one, giving Utah its first lead of the second half. The shot threw off the San Diego State women’s basketball team’s rhythm and confidence for the remainder of the game. Though SDSU was ahead for the majority of the game — leading by seven with less than nine minutes to go — the Aztecs were not able to reclaim the lead in the final minutes as SDSU fell to Utah, 63-58, in the finals of the Mountain West Conference Tournament at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

In head coach Beth Burns’ first season back on Montezuma Mesa, the San Diego State women’s basketball team won just three games and failed to draw a crowd of more than 1,000 for any home game during that 2005-06 campaign.

The Aztecs are 14-5 overall, with a 5-2 conference record and have yet to lose a single game at home. SDSU is averaging crowds of more than 1,000 at Cox Arena, where it is 10-0 after narrowly defeating Colorado State on Saturday.
