San Diego State CB corps at full strength again with return of pair who missed spring ball recovering from shoulder surgery
San Diego State cornerbacks Noah Avinger and Dallas Branch were warming up before last year’s game against Nevada when, within the span of a few minutes, both players suffered the same freak injury — a dislocated left shoulder.So two days after SDSU beat UTSA in the Frisco Bowl and two days before Christmas, both players had shoulder surgery.
“Since I’ve been here, we’ve always had the one alpha coming back,” SDSU cornerbacks coach Demetrius Sumler said. “The guy who was clearly the best player in the room, an all-conference-caliber player.is the guy right now, but I think we’ve got a pretty talented room. If we keep working, we’re going to be good.”
Branch is competing with sophomore Dez Malone on one side. Avinger is competing with another Noah, junior Noah Tumblin, on the other side. Avinger came to a similar conclusion while watching his teammates from the sideline during the spring. It was particularly frustrating, though, after making an immediate impact last season.
Avinger, whose brother Lucky is a senior running back for the Aztecs, started three of the 12 games in which he participated, highlighted by an interception against Towson and a fumble recovery at Air Force.“Older guys like Dallas and Noah Tumblin, they had more knowledge and experience,” Avinger said. “Picking up on little things that they have from experience was important.
