The Boise State men’s basketball team flexed its defensive muscles to earn a 62-52 comeback victory Thursday afternoon over San Diego State in a Mountain West Tournament quarterfinal. The fifth-seeded Broncos (23-9) out-scored No.

UCSD won five of the seven awards handed out by the league. UC Irvine’s Jurian Dixon, a St. Augustine High School graduate, was named the Big West Freshman of the Year and Cal State Bakersfield’s Jemel Jones, a transfer from South Suburban College, was named Newcomer of the Year.
