New Mexico Beats New Mexico State 79-61, Sweeps Season Series

Foul trouble, injuries, and poor free throw shooting doom the Aggies (5-5) as New Mexico (7-2) takes care of business in the Pit.

The University of New Mexico continues its dominance at home with another victory, this one coming on a season sweep of their Rio Grande Rivals, the New Mexico State University Aggies.

The Lobos shot the ball particularly well, going nearly 48% from the field and 35% from three. Elijah Brown and Tim Williams led the way as they efficiently put up 20 points and 18 points on 7/14 and 9/15 shooting, respectively.
