Following a ten day break New Mexico turned around and gutted out a 51-47 road win at the Lawlor Events Center in Reno, Nevada.
The Lobos had ample amount of time to think about their 52-47 second half collapse against New Mexico State on Dec. 20. However, head coach Yvonne Sanchez said she liked the way her team responded to the loss.
“I am proud of this team,” said head coach Yvonne Sanchez in a statement. “It is not easy winning on the road. I don’t care what the records are. We are lucky and fortunate to get out of here with a win.
