In the wake of the weekend’s shootout on the University of New Mexico campus that left one UNM student dead, two others in jail and a New Mexico State University basketball player in the hospital, the schools have agreed the heated men’s basketball rivalry can be put on the shelf for this year.
University of New Mexico athletic director Eddie Nuñez announced Tuesday that Saturday’s game scheduled in the Pit will not be rescheduled and the Dec. 3 game between the two teams that was to be played in the Pan American Center in Las Cruces is off, too.
