ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Each week during the Mountain West men’s basketball season, beat writers covering the league’s 11 teams will contribute team-by-team updates, compiled by Robert Gagliardi, senior editor of the Wyoming Tribune Eagle/WyoSports.net.
Here is the first installment for Dec. 28 with more of a preview, capsule type format.
EDITOR’S NOTE: There are no Boise State or San Jose State submissions this week.
AIR FORCE (9-4)
