LAS VEGAS—Fresno State basketball Coach Justin Hutson announced his resignation after the Bulldogs dropped an 87–75, overtime decision to top-seeded Utah State in a Mountain West Conference quarterfinal game Thursday at the Thomas & Mack Center.

Hutson, 52, had been Fresno State’s coach for six years. The decision was mutual, and he will transition into a different role at the school, Hutson said.
