On the San Jose State men’s basketball podcast with Ana:

1. The Spartans lost to the Wolf Pack 80-67 in Reno last Wednesday. They had a single-digit deficit midway through the first half, but they let it slip away. What did Nevada do to stifle the Spartan defense?

2. Despite the Spartans’ loss to the Wolf Pack, the San Jose State men’s basketball Twitter tweeted a sportsmanlike tweet of SJSU’s Jaycee Hillsman and Nevada’s Jordan Caroline side-by-side with smiles on their faces. Can you spare me a few details on two of Champaign’s finest?

3. Spartans junior forward Ryan Welage has come a long way. Athletic director Marie Tuite and head coach Jean Prioleau honored him for his 1,000 points before the San Jose State vs. San Diego State game on Saturday night. Welage was also named to the All-District VIII First Team by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). What else can you say about Welage and his impact on SJSU?

4. Spartans freshman forward Keith Fisher III dominated on the court with 21 points in the Spartans’ 71-59 loss to the Aztecs at home. What’s in store for Fisher’s future?

5. The Spartans upset the Aggies 64-62 at the Event Center on Wednesday night. How did the players and coaches feel after picking up their fourth win of the season?

6. The Spartans football team began spring practice this week. It’s too early to tell, but what are your thoughts on the players and coaches at the moment?
