Volleyball: Lobos sweep Nevada as a milestone is reached

The UNM volleyball team swept Nevada on Wednesday night, and the team hopes to ride the momentum towards closing the season with a winning record.

The Lobos (15-15, 5-11 Mountain West) found themselves balanced in all aspects of the game, defeating Nevada (18-10, 9-7 MW) 25-20, 25-23, 25-21 as one of their players hit a major milestone.

“I was really happy with the way we played,” Lobos head coach Jeff Nelson said. “We played really steady and solid. I thought our team had a lot of fun playing tonight.”

The head coach emphasized technical blocking after the team’s last match, and it paid off; the Lobos were dominant on the net against Nevada.
