DENVER – Less than 24 hours after upsetting No. 6/7 Miami in the semifinal game of the Hawaiian Airlines Diamond Head Classic, New Mexico State men's basketball grad transfer Zach Lofton was named the Western Athletic Conference Player of the Week.
This is the third conference weekly honor for Lofton and the second-straight week the guard has been named player of the week.
The St. Paul, Minn., product opened the phenomenal weekend with 10 points and eight rebounds with a pair of assists and steals as NM State beat Davidson on a late put-back.
