Winners of three straight—including, most recently, its conference opener against Air Force—the University of New Mexico men’s basketball team will travel to Nevada to take on the Wolf Pack in its second Mountain West game this season.
Most recently for the Lobos (6-8, 1-0 MW) was a win over the Falcons, beating them decisively, 87-58, at home. In that game, UNM saw scoring from a wide variety of players—including all of its bench.
Leading the way in that game was junior guard Jachai Simmons, who had a game-high 15 points off of the bench. He put on a show, creating highlight reel dunks, while also, nailing back-to-back 3s.
