New Mexico couldn't miss against Oral Roberts as they improve to 5-1 on the season.
Oral Roberts was expected to pose a threat to New Mexico at the Pit. They have a top-ten national scorer in Obi Emegano (who was good for 25 points) and a cast of good three-point shooters. But last night the three-point game belonged to UNM.
Elijah Brown and Cullen Neal led the way early for New Mexico with some crisp outside shooting. They scored 20 of New Mexico’s first 22 points and gave UNM an early 22-9 lead 7 minutes into the first half.
