ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- The University of New Mexico men's basketball team opened its season with a 21-point victory over Eastern New Mexico on Wednesday evening inside Dreamstyle Arena - The Pit. Five Lobos racked up double figures in the 92-71 win.

The first points of the 2019-20 season came on a steal and a layup when redshirt-junior JJ Caldwell went coast-to-coast to kick off his first outing as a Lobo 1:15 into the first half - and the action didn't stop there.
