The San Diego State women's basketball team plays host to the San Diego Surf `N Slam Classic for the fifth straight year, starting Dec. 28, at Viejas Arena. The Aztecs will face Wake Forest (8-3) in the first of two games on Monday at 5 p.m. PT, followed by the Auburn vs. Valparaiso contest at 7 p.m. The consolation (5 p.m.) and championship (7 p.m.) games will follow two days later on Wednesday.

SDSU has played just one outing in a 17-day period, defeating Loyola Marymount, 75-54, on Dec. 21, in Los Angeles to improve to 6-4 overall. The Aztecs, who will play their final two non-conference contests of the season, are seeking their second Surf `N Slam title in the tournament's five years of existence. The team finished as runner-up in 2006, before pulling off one of the biggest upsets in program history, defeating No. 4 Texas, to claim last year's title. SDSU ended up in third place in both 2007 and 2005.
