The Fresno State men’s basketball team battled all night but it wasn’t enough as the ’Dogs fell to the New Mexico Lobos 78-73 in their first conference game of the season on Wednesday night inside Wisepies Arena AKA “The Pit.”
Midway through the first half the Lobos jumped out to a 14-point lead but the Bulldogs responded by going on a 13-1 run to close the half and narrow the margin making it 36-34 at halftime.
Fresno State couldn’t capitalize on the way it ended the first half and began the second half on a shaky start.
