SD State 77, SJSU 62

It was a 40-27 second half that provided the difference as San Diego State hosted and defeated San Jose State University on Wednesday 77-62. The Spartans got big games -- 23 points apiece from Princeton Onwas and Ryan Welage -- but Frank Rogers was below his usual average and finished with just three points in 30 minutes of play. He shot 1-6.

The SJSU starting five consisted of three freshman, a junior and a senior.

"[Spartan Coach] Dave Wojcik said he challenged Welage, a freshman from Greensburg, Indiana. "I said, `You're going to walk out there and they're not going to respect you. They're going to look at you and see 190 pounds. You just be aggressive.' He knows how to play. He's from Indiana. He knows what to do with the ball. I'm really proud of him. He was aggressive from start to finish."
