Women's Basketball: Defense leads the way to New Mexico route in Colorado Springs

Redshirt junior center Whitney Johnson charges past two San Jose State players Saturday, Jan. 23, 2016, at WisePies Arena. The Lobo beat Air Force 63-33 Wednesday night.

New Mexico’s defensive prowess was once again on display in one of the best team performances the Lobos have had all year.

Things were clicking on the offensive side of the ball for New Mexico in its 63-33 victory over Air Force on Wednesday. However, holding the Falcons to just eight points in the first half was the main reason why UNM walked out of Colorado Springs with a victory.
