RIVERSIDE, Calif. – Nail-biting finishes have been the theme for the Aggies all season, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to most that yet another one of their games came down to the wire. NM State (12-10, 7-3 WAC) stole a huge road victory (62-61) from California Baptist (11-10, 7-3 WAC) in front 4,250 screaming kids in a game that was marketed as "education day".
Four Aggies found themselves in double figures this afternoon. Sylena Peterson led the way with 15 points scored on 5-12 shooting, including one made three. Ashlee Strawbridge matched a career-high in scoring after her 13-point outburst.
