The New Mexico beach volleyball team split its results on Saturday as it defeated Colorado Mesa 4-1 and lost to TCU 3-2.

The Lobos (2-3) bounced back after falling to two nationally-ranked teams in a previous matchup, and fought off the Mavericks (1-4) in the first match at GCU Beach Volleyball Stadium.

In the second game, the Lobos battled hard against the Horned Frogs (3-1), but could not clinch the deciding match.

“We got better as the weekend went on,” head coach Jeff Nelson said in a release. “We played some really tough teams, played them really tight, and I think it will help us as we go down the road.
