San Diego State Looks to Stay Perfect in West Coast Classic Action with Second Road Game in Three Days at Pacific
San Diego State (3-1), winners of two straight, will put its winning streak on the line with its second road game in three days when it takes on an undefeated Pacific squad (3-0) Wednesday night at Alex G. Spanos Center. The contest will pit the only two remaining unbeaten West Coast Classic teams. The Aztecs are 2-0 in Classic action, while the Tigers are 1-0 after their game at Northern Arizona was suspended in the second half due to a power outage last Thursday.

The non-conference game is set for 7:00 p.m. PT on the campus of the University of the Pacific and can be heard in Southern California on AM 600 KOGO with Ted Leitner providing the play-by-play.

SDSU enters the game ready for its third road tilt in its last four outings and is coming off a gritty 62-58 victory at old Western Athletic Conference rival Fresno State on Monday. The Aztecs battled back from a four-point halftime deficit and were carried by Billy White and Tyrone Shelley. White, a preseason all-Mountain West Conference selection, scored 18 of his game-high 22 points in the second half and grabbed a team-best eight rebounds. Shelley, meanwhile, knocked down four three-pointers and made all three free throws, including two with less than three seconds to play and SDSU nursing a two-point lead, en route to 17 points.

After its game at Pacific, San Diego State will take a break for Thanksgiving before game-planning for Northern Arizona. The Aztecs and Lumberjacks will tangle at Viejas Arena on Saturday, Nov. 28, in SDSU's final West Coast Classic game at 3 p.m. PT.

Game Tidbits
* Billy White enters the game having made 20 of his last 28 field-goal attempts (.714 FG). The streak dates back to the second half of the Saint Mary's game (5-7) and the entire Santa Clara (7-11) and Fresno State games (8-10).

* SDSU will look to continue its dominance over the Big West Conference. The Aztecs have won seven straight over the league and have not dropped a game to a member institution since losing an overtime affair vs. UC Santa Barbara on Nov. 19, 2004. Even with the loss to the Gauchos, San Diego State has won 13 of its last 14 against the conference.

* The Aztecs' last road loss to a Big West school occurred on Dec. 6, 2000, at UCSB in three overtimes.

* San Diego State will look to continue its solid play during the month of November as the team has posted a record of 22-3 since the beginning of the 2006-07 season.
