Fresno St. 81, SJSU 63

The score was 37-31 after 20 minutes so San Jose State University was within striking range of Fresno State. The Spartans then got the deficit down to three before falling back 81-63 last night.

The Bulldogs played small ball, not playing anyone over 6-foot-7 and that may be stretching it an inch.

Although San Jose won the boards 32-27, elsewhere it was a different story: 3 steals to 14 and a corresponding 19 turnovers to just eight.

Rashad Muhammad tallied 16 points and four assists but shot 3-12 overall. His 8-11 at the foul line was a very pleasing number of attempts. Isaac Thornton shot 5-7 overall on his way to 14 points. He passed out three assists. Jaleel Williams finished with 10 points plus seven boards. Ivo Basor nabbed a very solid and team-leading eight rebounds in 27 minutes of play.

One third of SJSU's shot attempts were from beyond the arc and the squad earned 23 free throw tries.
