That’s how many days it will be officially between the Lobo men’s basketball team’s last game in the Pit – a Feb. 29, 2020, win over Utah State – and the Oct. 30 intrasquad scrimmage the University of New Mexico on Friday announced will be free and open to the public.
It marks the first time Lobo fans have been in the iconic 55-year-old venue to watch college basketball since the COVID-19 pandemic led to restrictions on large gatherings nationwide last year. They carried over in New Mexico to included both UNM and New Mexico State men’s and women’s basketball teams from being able to play their 2020-2021 seasons in the state.
