Breakfast at Clune Arena proved nearly unpalatable for the University of New Mexico women’s basketball team Thursday.

Brunch was more to the Lobos’ liking.

Aniyah Augmon racked up 17 points and 11 rebounds, Shaiquel McGruder added 12 points and nine boards, and New Mexico used a strong second half to earn a 70-65 victory at Air Force in a weekday matinee.

LaTascya Duff (15) points and LaTora Duff (11) also reached double figures in scoring for the Lobos, who won after trailing at halftime for just the second time this season. The host Falcons (12-16, 7-9) took a 43-40 lead to intermission and UNM coach Mike Bradbury did not like what he’d seen following an 11 a.
