A big performance from Dane Kuiper and a second half resurgence wasn’t enough for the University of New Mexico men’s basketball to pull an improbable upset over No. 23 Arizona Saturday night.

And the 13,207 fans in attendance at Dreamstyle Arena made a lot of noise, but it did not seem to faze the Wildcats as they closed strong down the stretch.ould not will their team back after it fell behind.

Arizona improved its record to 8-3 after enduring a late surge by UNM to secure an 89-73 win, behind big performances from a handful of players and an impressive shooting performance as a team.
