MMBOD Mar 09: Aaron Nixon - Long Beach State

By Kyle Whelliston on March 10, 2006 7:09 AM |

Snoop would be so proud. Long Beach has been red-hot streaking into the Big West tourney (winning six in a row), and now they've won their first tourney game in six years... the emergence of a sparkplug guard from Cleveland is a primary reason. Davis led the third-fastest team in the nation (78.9 possessions/40 min.) to the semifinals with a 31 and 10 double-double, which included five points in the last half-minute.

Now Nixon and the 49ers have a late date with UC Irvine for a spot in the Big West final. If he continues to drop it like it's hot, they could go all the way to the Dance.

Having recently completed its fourth season, The Mid-Majority is a blog about the 22 smaller Division I college basketball conferences (and independents) by me, Kyle Whelliston. I write for ESPN.com and Basketball Times, and maintain the Basketball State statistics website as well.

Here's a brief note on who we talk about, and why.
