Since 2002 the schools have met 12 times, and while the Wildcats are 9-3 three of those wins were by six or fewer points, including the championship of the Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii in 2012 and the 2014 Sweet 16. Arizona and SDSU last met in the 2022 Maui Invitational, an 87-70 win by the UA over an Aztecs team that featured future Wildcat Keshad Johnson and which would reach the NCAA final a few months later. The current SDSU team is 6-3 heading into Saturday's meeting as part of the Hall of Fame Series in Phoenix. The Aztecs opened Mountain West Conference play with an 81-58 home win over Air Force on Wednesday. To better understand Arizona's next opponent, we asked Jeffrey Carter of SB Nation sister site Mountain West…...

16+ hour, 4+ min ago (653+ words) How many times has San Diego-born troubadour and cultural provocateur Robert Lopez " best known for masterminding El Vez, the "Mexican Elvis" " performed at the Casbah? It's a tricky question that he and Casbah co-owner Tim Mays are both unable to conclusively answer. "El Vez has been playing the Casbah going back to our original location in the early 1990's," Mays said. "I cannot count exactly how many times." Neither can Lopez, although he ventured a guess via email from Seattle, where he opened his San Diego-bound 2025 Merry Mex-Mas tour on Dec. 11. "I've played at the Casbah way over 100 times, for sure," he wrote, "as El Vez and with The Zeros, Covid Cola, The Unhappy Hour, The Little Richards and other bands. I've done my Merry Mex-Mas show there more than 25 times!" No matter the tally, it's been 31 years since the…...

Chula Vista's Bayfront is set for a major boost in outdoor recreation as the Port of San Diego and the city of Chula Vista move forward with plans to expand Harbor Park next to the Gaylord Pacific resort. The first phase of the project will transform the existing 12-acre waterfront park into a larger destination, featuring playgrounds, walking paths, a splash pad and trees. Residents have long enjoyed the Bayfront's open space, including beach volleyball, bird-watching, and simple time outdoors. "I love being out amongst nature," said long-time Chula Vista resident Jennie Strangman. "This is the only place really in Chula Vista that we can be amongst the water, the squirrels, tons of squirrels, and ducks." Strangman once worried this space might disappear as the Bayfront development…...

1+ day, 3+ hour ago (1377+ words) When the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA was competing for seed money to finance its $40 million renovation 15 years ago, the letter Dan McAllister sent to California state parks officials certainly didn't hurt. McAllister, the YMCA board member who was also the elected San Diego County treasurer-tax collector, spelled out why the state should invest millions of its limited tax dollars serving young people in south San Diego over other programs. "From a socio-economic standpoint, the neighborhoods served by the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA stand out not for their affluence or low unemployment rates," the career taxman wrote. "On the contrary" McAllister went on to describe the challenges confronting southeastern San Diego communities " and why the local Y deserved $5 million in state parks funds. That vote of confidence helped jump-start the capital campaign that led to the opening of the new Jackie…...

1+ day, 12+ hour ago (1019+ words) If there's a patron saint of cannabis, it's Willie Nelson. For decades, the country legend has been the guy people picture when they think "good weed, good music, good friends." But after years of smoking, even Willie had to admit his lungs were over it. He wasn't done with cannabis, he just needed a new ritual that didn't involve rolling papers or coughing fits. That pivot - to something you can'sip'instead of smoke - brought him straight to San Diego. On the other side of this story is Forrest Dein, a Maui-raised surfer who landed in San Diego with a familiar West Coast checklist: chase waves, build something meaningful, and try not to trash your body in the process. Long before "functional beverages" had their own aisle, Forrest and a few friends were messing around with fermented tea in a dusty garage…...

1+ day, 16+ hour ago (321+ words) You may'look out the window early Wednesday and think, "The fog has swallowed my car. Again." San Diego has resembled London lately, shrouded in some areas by countless droplets of moisture, each thinner than a human hair. Collectively, they can briefly blind you. The gray veil, as some describe it, will be here through Friday due to a phenomenon that's occurring 1,500 miles southwest of San Diego. A massive high-pressure system has spread across the ocean, trapping cool water vapor at the surface, below much warmer air above. The trapped moisture turns into droplets that form fog of varying density. Coastal temperatures were in the 50s early Tuesday, more than 20 degrees cooler than they were 1,000 feet in the sky. The resulting fog was as thick as pea soup in some parts of the city, barely visible in others. In most places, it…...
