White, Aztecs roll past Shockers

SAN DIEGO -- Billy White scored 11 points during a 21-3 run in the second half, and No. 17 San Diego State beat Wichita State 83-69 on Saturday night to remain undefeated.

White finished with 24 points, and Kawhi Leonard had 16 points and 12 rebounds for the Aztecs, who are 8-0 for the third time in their 90-year history. They also opened with eight wins in 2006-07 and 1984-85.

Leonard, a sophomore, has six double-doubles this year and 23 in his career.

D.J. Gay had 14 points and Malcolm Thomas 12 for the Aztecs.

David Kyles scored 18 for Wichita State (5-2), which had won four straight coming in. Toure' Murry had 11.

The game was part of the Mountain West-Missouri Valley Challenge.

Wichita State got six straight points from Murry early in the second half, four during a 7-0 run, to take a 47-46 lead with 14:43 left. That was the Shockers' last lead.

San Diego State scored the next 14 points in a span of 67 seconds, to go ahead 60-47. White started the run with a three-point play, followed by Leonard's three-point play and a fast-break layup by White.

White was intentionally fouled by Gabe Blair, and the referees mistakenly had Leonard take the two free throws, making one. After a review, White went to the line and made both shots. Malcolm Thomas made a shot off the inbounds pass, and White had a steal and a slam dunk to finish the run.
