Colorado State punched its ticket to the conference championship game after Wednesday’s 60-42 win over New Mexico, potentially the Lobos' final game of the season. The victory solidified the Rams' national ranking as they remain undefeated against Mountain West opponents.
The Lobos (17-14) only saw CSU once before Wednesday night’s contest, and the game came down to a final shot which fell to the floor as time expired.
The Rams didn’t allow the semi-final round of the Mountain West tournament to be as close of a contest.
"At the Pit, we played a little better defense, and we hit shots,” head coach Yvonne Sanchez said in her post-game interview.
