Arizona State Narrowly Defeats Cal Poly in High-Scoring Game

The Sun Devils overcame defensive struggles and late-game pressure to secure a 93-89 nonconference victory.

Freshman Joson Sanon led Arizona State with 22 points, including key free throws in the final seconds to secure the win.
Cal Poly's Jarred Hyder scored a game-high 27 points, hitting seven 3-pointers to keep the Mustangs competitive throughout the game.
Arizona State's rebounding dominance, with a 44-24 advantage, was a critical factor, highlighted by Jayden Quaintance's 12 boards and four blocks.
Despite holding double-digit leads in both halves, Arizona State struggled defensively, allowing Cal Poly to shoot 51.6% from the field and stay within striking distance.
