TUSCON, Ariz. - Staring a 10-point deficit squarely in the face after the game's first 3:45, the New Mexico State men's basketball team used a 12-5 run powered by the play of senior Trevelin Queen to cut #17/19 Arizona's lead down to three, but the Wildcats answered with a 28-9 run to end the first half and walked away with an 83-53 victory Sunday afternoon at the McKale Center.
Size and shooting were the Wildcats' biggest advantages as freshman Zeke Nnaji finished with a game-high 19 points on 7-of-7 shooting to lead the Wildcats.
