📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Lobo Luck. The men’s basketball team went undefeated in the Ball Dawgs Classic in Las Vegas over the holiday break! They picked up wins over Toledo, Rice, and Pepperdine in dominant fashion. The Lobos had five double-figure scorers in back-to-back games. Tru Washington and Donovan Dent recorded their first career double-doubles over the weekend. They’ll start a three-game homestand when they host Louisiana Tech on Wednesday.
🔼 Seventeen Again. The women’s basketball team fell to Georgia Tech in Cancun over the break, where Aniyah Augmon and Nyah Wilson both scored 17 points. Aniyah had her fifth double-digit game of the season and Nyah had her fourth. They’ll be back in The Pit for a six-game homestand as they host Eastern Illinois on Tuesday.
🔼 Season Finale. The Lobos lost in a double overtime shootout against Utah State.
