Monday’s women’s basketball game at the Pit was not on the original schedule but it played out pretty much as expected.
The Mountain West-leading University of New Mexico had few problems with struggling San Jose State, emptying the bench early and coasting to an 87-57 victory.
Shaiquel McGruder racked up 18 points in 19 minutes before calling it a night as the Lobos (17-4, 8-0) extended their winning streak to nine games. Everyone in uniform played at least six minutes for UNM, and 11 players scored.
It was precisely what Lobos coach Mike Bradbury was hoping for with his team scheduled for a first-place showdown Thursday night at UNLV.
