LAS VEGAS, Nev. — The UNM women’s basketball team went bust at Cox Pavilion on Wednesday night.
The Lobos’ erratic offense never showed up and UNLV eventually thawed out enough to pull away for a 57-48 victory.
Freshman post Jaisa Nunn was the only bright spot for UNM, scoring 14 points on 7-of-10 shooting and grabbing nine rebounds. Nunn’s teammates were a combined 12 of 52 from the field (23 percent), and UNM went just 7 of 17 from the foul line.
New Mexico’s defense was good enough to keep things close for most of the night, but the Lobos’ dreadful offense helped the Rebels out.
