ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The University of New Mexico women's basketball team held off Utah State 73-70 behind a career night from sophomore Cherise Beynon and leadership from the three seniors Wednesday night in WisePies Arena.
"Tonight we learned how to finish," said head coach Yvonne Sanchez. "That was a good team, and we finished. These guys work their tails off. I have a great group. The right players took the right shots. We're just going to keep working on making more of those shots fall."
Beynon finished with a career-high of 24 points, shooting a career-high 6-for-11 from the three.
