The Lobos’ newly acquired identity has translated into recent success.
A complete team effort allowed New Mexico to rid of Air Force in a three set sweep in Johnson Center on Tuesday night. With head coach Jeff Nelson’s new lineup, UNM has won four of the team’s last five matches.
“Air Force has been a team that has been tough this year,” head coach Jeff Nelson said. “They’ve given some teams some good matches… They’re a good team when they put it together and they didn’t tonight.”
The Lobos came out of the gates in dominant fashion, making quick work of the Falcons 25-18 in the first set.
