The Lobos have a date with the top team in the Mountain West on Valentine’s Day, and they are even wearing special outfits for the occasion.
After pulling a 74-67 win at Air Force last week, the UNM men’s basketball team returns to WisePies Arena for Lobos Love Pink, an event that aims to help spread breast cancer awareness. The team will wear white jerseys with pink lettering, which will be auctioned off post-game to raise money for the UNM Cancer Center.
It won’t be an easy match as the opponents for the night are the Boise State Broncos, who find themselves at the top of the conference standings with a 16-7 overall record, including 9-3 in conference.
