No game is easy to win, even at The Pit. Even though the University of New Mexico women’s basketball team was able to play a near-flawless first-half against the visiting San Diego State Aztecs, basketball is still a game of trends.
And despite a near-comeback from the Aztecs in the second half, which saw them outscore UNM (14-2, 4-1 MW) over the final two quarters, the Lobos turned the tide when it mattered most and sealed their 70-62 victory after scoring the final eight points of the game.
“You’re gonna be tested you’re gonna be tested in basketball and life and all that stuff,” UNM head coach Mike Bradbury said when asked about how he saw his team respond in the final moments of the game.
