🔼 Battled. The men’s basketball team fell to No. 25 Utah State 85-78 last night. Donavan Yap Jr. scored 22 points and a career-high six three-pointers. Latrell Davis scored 20 points with three three-pointers. The Spartans shot 42% from beyond the arc. San José State will travel to Air Force on Saturday for a noon matchup.

🔼 Home, Sweet Home. The women’s basketball team returns home to take on Fresno State! They’ll tip-off tonight at 6 p.m. on the Mountain West Network. Both teams are looking for their first Mountain West win of the season. The Spartans rank second in the conference in rebounding margin, offensive rebounds per game, and offensive rebound percentage.

🔼 Movin’ On Up. Spartan football has promoted Billy Ray Stutzmann to wide receivers coach! He previously served as a senior offensive analyst and helped coach the Spartan offense to 4,183 passing yards. That number is good for third in San José State’s single-season history.
