Women's basketball: Lobos will be among the teams to beat, Sanchez says

The New Mexico women’s basketball team excited its fans with song and dance at the Lobo Howl on Friday. However, Tuesday’s media day was all business.

Head coach Yvonne Sanchez said Tuesday, that she is not looking to build a team that is good for a year. The four-year head coach said she has been building her program up to have a much longer run than the 2015-16 campaign.

However, that doesn’t mean her expectations for this season are low.

“They need to understand that we’re New Mexico again, we’re significant again, we’ve built a program instead of one good team,” Sanchez said.
