University of New Mexico running back Aaron Dumas was named Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Week after rushing for a career-high 143 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries in a 34-7 loss at Fresno State on Saturday.
Dumas, out of Americas High in El Paso, sees his latest performance as the start of greater things to come, and it’s a rushing mark that he aims to surpass.
“As I grow, I’m going to start putting up 200-, possibly 300-yard games,” Dumas said after Saturday’s loss that dropped the Lobos to 3-7, 1-5 in the Mountain West.
