The SDSU men are traveling to Providence, Rhode Island to take on 6th seeded Tennessee. D.J. Gay and Kawhi Leonard join 619 Sports to talk about their seeding:
Paul Wright had a goal and four assists, Kraig Chiles scored a hat trick, and the San Diego Sockers withstood a furious rally from La Raza de Guadalajara, prevailing 9-8 at the Del Mar Arena to claim the PASL-Pro North American Championship.
For the second consecutive year, both the SDSU men and women have reached the finals of the Mountain West Conference tournament. The Aztec men did it in heart-stopping fashion for a second-straight day, knocking off No. 8-ranked New Mexico, 72-69, to not only reach the championship round, but also — more importantly — all but officially clinch a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
CBS lead college basketball analyst Clark Kellogg thinks there’s a strong possibility the Mountain West Conference can get four teams into the field of 65. But could a team from the Pac-10 steal away SDSU’s bid? Kellogg joined 619 Sports to preview the selection of the 2010 NCAA tournament field:

The Mountain West Conference tournament is getting started in Las Vegas, and for the San Diego State basketball programs, the only sure path to the Big Dance is to cut down the nets. Craig and Chris break down the Aztecs’ at-large hopes:
After capturing the Mountain West Conference tournament in dramatic fashion over UNLV, the San Diego State Aztecs had nothing to sweat about during Selection Sunday. The only questions were: seeding, location, and opponent.
The answers: #11, Providence, Rhode Island, and Tennessee.
It’s not a fan-friendly trip for Aztecs supporters, but the Volunteers present a challenging but beatable opponent.
After learning their fate, members of the SDSU basketball team met with the media to talk about their amazing tournament championship, and the quest to pick up the Aztecs’ first win in the NCAAs.
Aztecs’ point guard D.J. Gay joined 619 Sports’ Craig Elsten to discuss his clutch, ironman performance in Las Vegas:
