It wasn’t pretty, but the New Mexico Lobos are finally off the schneid having ended their three-game losing streak in front of 10,082 fans. Makuach Maluach poured in 22 points off the bench, and Anthony Mathis hit three-point baskets on back to back possessions to help the New Mexico Lobos pull away from the Central Arkansas Bears 82-70 on Sunday afternoon.
Both teams struggled shooting early on, and the game was close for much of the first half. The Lobos used an 8-2 spurt near the end of the first half to grab a 40-32 half time lead.
