The New Mexico volleyball team was unable to close out its match against Utah State early after building a two game lead, falling 2-3 in its penultimate home match on Saturday.
The Lobos (14-15, 4-11 Mountain West) won the first two games 28-26, 25-22, then lost momentum and dropped the last three sets 25-21, 25-19, 15-13 to the Aggies (12-15, 7-9).
“I’m not happy with our performance... because our blocking was really poor again,” head coach Jeff Nelson said. “We talked about it, but we were not making any changes — we got beat because of blocking today.
