State bragging rights still mean something to the University of New Mexico baseball team.
In what’s largely been a rough season for the Lobos and first-year coach Tod Brown, there have been some noteworthy highlights. Home wins over nationally ranked Arizona and Texas Tech, road series wins at Wichita State and Air Force and, perhaps best of all, a sweep of New Mexico State.
UNM completed its 4-0 run of the rivalry table Tuesday with a 12-4 victory over the Aggies at sunny Santa Ana Star Field. The Lobos (20-31) cracked three two-run homers – two by Braydon Runion, one by Willie Cano – and outhit the visiting Aggies (18-31) by a 15-7 count.
