Lobos Brew 7/24: Enchanting Weekend
Today, we're talking TBT basketball and saying goodbye to a Lobo legend.
Good morning! We’re 40 days away from football season, but let’s wrap up talking season with this recap from Mountain West Media Days! Click here to see all the fun Coach Gonzales got into in Las Vegas.
What all is steeping in today’s Brew?
🏀 Former Lobo shines in TBT tournament
⛳️ Saying “farewell” to a Lobo legend
🐺 And much, much more!
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 It Was Enchanting. The Enchantment TBT team full of players from around New Mexico, including former Lobos, had a great run in the TBT tournament, advancing to the Sweet 16. Former Lobo Trey Simons played a huge role in upsetting the home team, the Air Raiders, in the round of 32. His alley-oop secured the win for the team to go to the Lubbock Regional Finals. He finished the game with 15 points, 4-5 on three point shots, and 3 assists. The Enchantment eventually lost in the regional final to Bleed Green.
🔼 Count ‘Em Down. We’re counting down the days until kick-off, there are only 40 days — just in case you missed it earlier. Let’s relive Lamar Jordan’s 40-yard run against UNLV coming out of half-time in 2017. He also scored on a 41-yard carry, he had the speed that night. That game was a back-and-forth thriller at University Stadium. The Lobos will host UNLV again this season on November 4 at 4:00pm.
🔼 Thank You, Coach. Today, we are wishing New Mexico men’s golf head coach best wishes as he was named head coach at Missouri. Coach Glen Millican has led New Mexico for 22 years and was a Lobo golfer from 1994-1998 before taking an assistant coaching position for three years. He is a five-time Mountain West Coach of the Year and led the Lobos to eight NCAA Championship finals appearances and 20 NCAA Regional appearances. The Lobos won eight Mountain West Championships under his leadership. This season, the Lobos set the program scoring record with a 283.14 stroke average.
🐺 ONE BIG THING
On The Road, Again. We’re here to remind you about tonight’s Lobos on the Road event!
