ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- Ten wins. Zero losses.
No University of New Mexico women's basketball team had ever started that way until Wednesday night when the Lobos in front of a season-high 5,663 loud and enthusiastic supporters defeated Texas Tech handily, 90-56, at Dreamstyle Arena – The Pit.
The victory for UNM (10-0) not only sets a new record for best start in program history (passing the 1996-97 team that started 9-0), it's also the second-most games the Lobos have won in a row ever – only behind the 11-game win streaks of the 2003-04 and 1977-78 teams.
