LAS VEGAS (AP) Donnie Tillman scored a season-high 23 points and New Mexico State defeated No. 2 seed Utah Valley 78-62 in Friday's semifinal round of the Western Athletic Conference. Tillman scored five points before the game was two minutes old and No. 3 seed New Mexico State (12-7) led comfortably the entire way. The Aggies will take on top-seeded Grand Canyon in the title game Saturday. New Mexico State has beaten the Antelopes for the WAC's automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament in 2018 and 2019.
