A historic performance on Sunday made for quite the Monday for the UNM Lobos.
Graduate transfer forward Morris Udeze, who on Sunday became just the fourth Lobo player to ever post a 33-point, 14-rebound game in the team’s lopsided 98-74 win over Northern Colorado in the Pit, was named Monday the Mountain West Player of the Week, his first such honor as a Lobo and the first the program has earned since Carlton Bragg was named Player of the Week on Dec. 16, 2019.
And the Lobos, who are off to a 6-0 start for the 15th time in the program’s 119-season history and are one of just 20 undefeated teams remaining out of 363 Division I programs, got a nugget of good news as a team, too.
