With autumn in the air, there is one big thing that comes into the minds of New Mexico sports fans: college basketball.
The UNM men’s basketball team stepped back on the court on Friday afternoon for its first official practice.
The Lobos finished the 2015-2016 season with a 17-15 overall record and went 10-8 in the Mountain West Conference, good for a fourth place finish.
New Mexico’s strength was at home, as the team finished with a 12-4 record at WisePies Arena aka the Pit. The first five games this season will all be at home, which might serve as a confidence builder.
