New Mexico ended its two game road trip on a high note after a 70-60 victory on Wednesday night.
Beating the Broncos on the road is significant as the Lobos are still in the hunt for a finish among the top five teams in the conference and a first round bye in the MW tourney.
“We’ve still got a long way to go,” head coach Yvonne Sanchez said in a postgame radio interview. “We’re still playing for a spot in the tournament.”
A long way to go, but a step in the right direction for Sanchez’s squad that has had its ups and downs all season.
