Thanksgiving leftovers will just have to wait.
The University of New Mexico women’s basketball team will lace up its running shoes Friday for the start of a post-holiday hoops marathon. The Lobos face Stephen F. Austin to open the three-day Van Chancellor Classic in Katy, Texas. UNM will take on Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday, then face Texas Tech on Sunday before coming home. After a one-day break, the Lobos host Grambling State on Tuesday.
It’s a full plate of basketball, but the Lobos say they’re looking forward to it.
“It’s exciting,” senior Jaedyn De La Cerda said.
