🔼 Back Home Ballers. The men’s basketball team is back at home tomorrow after a three-game stretch on the road. They’ll host New Orleans at 2pm — you can get your tickets here, watch on the Mountain West Network, or listen on 860 AM KTRB. The two teams have not played each other since 2013 and have only met twice overall. The Spartans are undefeated at home so far, while New Orleans is just 1-4 on the road.

Speaking of home, Spartan fans can get SJSU's first four home Mountain West Games, including national runner-up San Diego State, for only $64. It's 4 for $64 in '24!

🔼 Earned It. Men’s track & field athlete Jacob Lopez was named a Dr. Pepper Tuition Award recipient! Go Teach and Dr. Pepper have been giving tuition money to student-athletes looking to become teachers or coaches. Jacob will receive $2,500 in tuition as he works towards a kinesiology degree. He’s a thrower for the Spartans and finished sixth in shot put and 11th in the discus at the 2023 Mountain West Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
