SALT LAKE CITY — Utah State got its One Shining Moment, even if it wasn’t in the NCAA Tournament.
The school’s men’s basketball Twitter account shared a highlight video Friday set to the NCAA Tournament’s “One Shining Moment” music. The yearly highlight video showcases the unforgettable moments from the NCAAs and a cap to championship night.
There was still work to be done.
