“It doesn’t have to be pretty, but you have to find a way to win on Sundays,” UNM head coach Heather Dyche said.
The Lobos won their second Mountain West Conference game 1-0 against the University of Nevada.
In conference play, teams typically play games on Friday night and Sunday afternoon. Last year, the Lobos only won one of their five Sunday conference games. By comparison, the Lobos performed well on Friday nights last year, winning four of six.
Dyche said she wanted her team to learn from last year’s results — that winning on Fridays meant little if the team could not get a result on Sunday.
