The Lobo women’s tennis team broke through to win its first doubles point of the season in the home opener, but it wasn’t enough as Minnesota came from behind to ruin the homecoming.
New Mexico (1-10) opened the spring season playing 10 straight matches on the road, but came away with just one team victory despite getting close several times.
The team returned to host Minnesota (9-4) and hoped to continue its dominance at home, where UNM went undefeated last season.
Things got off to a good start in doubles competition, even though the Lobos lost the first match.
