Women's Basketball: Lobos still biding for first round bye

New Mexico head coach Yvonne Sanchez said Wednesday night’s 49-48 loss to No. 25 Colorado State still stings.

With just three games left, two of which are on the road, UNM will have to quickly shake off the tight affair in order to obtain a bye in the first round of the Mountain West tournament.

“As heartbreaking as last night was, and still kind of is, we had to move on,” Sanchez said in Thursday’s press conference.

UNM had a chance to pull the upset on Wednesday night. After leading the entire first half, the Lobos’ cooled down on the offensive side of the ball in the third quarter.
