The Aztecs are coming! The Aztecs are coming! (Pt. 2)

Not satisfied with taking down the Longhorns in December, San Diego State skewered the Lobos (#23), winning 57-52.

You want firsts? First victory at New Mexico in nearly 14 years (and New Mexico's first loss at home this season).
"(The win) means a lot for this team," Aztec head coach Beth Burns said. "For our team, we've taken care of (the games) we're supposed to have taken care of, but to take the next step, we have to beat the New Mexicos, the Utahs, the TCUs and the BYUs when we get to league (play). This was just a huge, huge confidence booster. There aren't too many places in basketball that are more fun to win at than The Pit."
