MEN’S BASKETBALL Rams ready to shake off Aztecs loss following their bye week By Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

There’s only one team left in the Mountain West Conference men’s basketball circuit that has yet to win a game: San Jose State. Despite a single-digit loss at the hands of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas in their most recent contest, the Spartans are not going unnoticed by Coach Niko Medved. “A couple bounces go (the Spartans) way, they probably beat UNLV,” Medved said. “We know they’re going to play well and play hard… you gotta expect it to be a tough ball game.” The biggest problem for the Spartans this year has been their youth. The Spartans rank dead last in the conference in both scor- ing (64.6 points per game) and scoring defense (79.4 points al- lowed per game). Those marks are buoyed by seven under- classmen on the roster. Though they have battled typical youthful woes, Medved saw consistent improvement. “You look at their team, they’ve been playing a ton of young guys all year,” Medved said. “You can see them getting better and better.” The leader of the novice crowd for Coach Jean Prioleau is sophomore Noah Baumann, a 6-foot-5 guard from Phoenix, Arizona. This season, the former Desert Vista High School stand- out scored 9.8 points per game, good for the third-highest mark Kris Martin looks for an opening during the game against San Houston State Dec. 8, 2018.
