Fans welcomed the San Diego State University men's basketball team home Tuesday afternoon.
The team landed in San Diego from Houston at 2:45 p.m. and then headed to campus. Fans were outside Fowler Athletics Center, located right across from Viejas Arena.
Though the team's loss to the University of Connecticut Huskies in the NCAA Championship game Monday night was disappointing, fans said they are still proud of the team's success this year.
One fan told CBS 8: "This year the culmination of all the effort, all the staff really came out. This is heartbreaking, but we're gonna learn. This is the farthest we've ever gone. So how can you not love that?"
