SAN DIEGO — Miles Byrd scored 19 points and made two highlight-reel plays for No. 23 San Diego State, which blew most of a 19-point lead before beating California Baptist 81-75 for its fourth straight win. Byrd made a no-look bounce pass to Magoon Gwath for a slam dunk and a 54-45 lead with 14:40 to go. A few minutes later, Byrd stole a pass and went in for a dunk to make it 66-49. The Lancers cut it to 77-73 on Javonte Johnson's 3-pointer with two minutes left, but Nick Boyd made a bank shot and Byrd hit two free throws to seal the win.
