The UNM men’s soccer team got back on the pitch on Saturday to kick off its 2017 spring season.
Unfortunately for the Lobos, the result was not what they were looking for, as they ended up falling 2-1 in overtime to the Southern Methodist Mustangs in Dallas, Texas.
The Mustangs were the first team on the board, finding the back of the net halfway through the first period. New Mexico was unable to get a goal of their own by halftime, at which point Southern Methodist enjoyed a 1-0 lead.
But the Lobos kept on trying and their efforts eventually paid off.
