Mountain West indoor track and field: Lobo women come so close to title that ‘it stinks’

Oh so close.

That was the takeaway for the New Mexico women’s indoor track and field team Saturday at the Albuquerque Convention Center as its drive to win its first Mountain West indoor championships since 2015 came up just short to Colorado State 125½-124½.

“It stinks,” coach Lobos coach Joe Franklin said. “There are not any other words. They gave everything they had. We had women scoring in places we needed them to score. They did a great job. We knew it would be close. We knew it would probably come down to the relay. It did.
