LaTora Duff didn’t grab too many headlines for the University of New Mexico women’s basketball team last season.
She was the only full-time starter not to earn some sort of All-Mountain West honors after the Lobos captured the regular-season championship. It wasn’t necessarily a slight. In her first season as UNM’s starting point guard since transferring from Alabama’s Shelton State Community College, Duff’s numbers were solid but not spectacular. Her twin sister, LaTascya, named MWC Sixth Person of the Year, posted more eye-catching statistics.
Things are different this season.
Through 11 games, LaTora can make a strong case for team MVP for the 8-3 Lobos, who visit No.
