LAS CRUCES, N.M. – The Tuesday night bus ride from Albuquerque to Las Cruces was a bitter and quiet one for NM State Volleyball. After allowing the Lobos to come back and win in five sets, the Aggies had less than 24 hours to prepare for round two with their in-state rival. On Wednesday, NM State flipped the script, roaring back to defeat New Mexico in five sets and exacting revenge from the night prior. The victory was the program's first in the series since the rivalry's rebirth a year ago.

Set-by-set: NM State wins 3-2 (25-18, 23-25, 18-25, 25-23, 15-7)
