ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Make it three in a row for the Lobos. The University of New Mexico got a second half game-winner for the third straight game, and for the second time in conference play it was Ruth Bruciaga. Her 18-yard strike 1:34 into the second half was the only tally UNM would need as the Lobos defeated Nevada 1-0 at the UNM Soccer Complex in front of 1,707 fans.
The win jumped the Lobos to 5-5-0 on the season and 3-0-0 in the Mountain West. Only UNM and San José State are a perfect 3-0-0.
