The University of New Mexico women’s basketball team picked up right where they left off before the Thanksgiving holiday—with a win.
The team moved to a perfect 5-0 record on the season after defeating a capable Wichita State team, 76-62, on Friday evening at Dreamstyle Arena.
The start is the best for UNM since the 2012-13 season, when the Lobos also began 5-0. But still have a way to go to match the record for most wins to open a season, which was set during the 1996-97 campaign, when the team started out 9-0 on the season.
