SDSU Men's Basketball Preseason Accolades in PDF Format | Purchase Tickets
The San Diego State men's basketball team is the preseason favorite to win the Mountain West Conference championship in 2011, according to the Blue Ribbon forecast.
The preseason publication has the Aztecs atop the nine-team league and has selected senior Billy White and sophomore Kawhi Leonard as all-conference selections.
The Aztecs return nine letterwinners and all five starters from last season's 25-9 team. Head Coach Steve Fisher's team is one of just four 2010 NCAA Tournament teams that returns its entire starting lineup in 2010-11.
SDSU enters the 2010-11 season fresh off one of its most successful efforts after winning the MWC tournament crown, advancing to the NCAA Tournament. The Scarlet and Black have won 20 or more games and advanced to the postseason five consecutive seasons. San Diego State inches toward the `10-11 season with much anticipation as it is ranked No. 22 in Lindy's Sports preseason magazine, No. 23 in Dick Vitale's preseason poll and No. 24 in Andy Katz's rankings. ESPN.com's Pat Forde and FoxSports.com's Jeff Goodman, meanwhile, have tabbed the Aztecs as one of their top teams heading into `10-11.
San Diego State men's basketball season tickets are currently on sale at GoAztecs.com and start at $99 for reserved chair back seats. For more information, please contact the Aztec Ticket Office at (619) 283-7378.
