New Mexico flexed its muscles from the bench on the way to an 83-43 rout over visiting Nicholls State on Tuesday night.
Two minutes into the first quarter, head coach Yvonne Sanchez had to resort to the backups after senior Khadijah Shumpert headed to the bench with two fouls. Sanchez didn’t need to call on her dominant force down low for the remainder of the first half.
The Lobos (3-1) played a total of 13 players, all who contributed over 11 minutes of playing time. All but one of the 13 who played put up at least one bucket as well.
