📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Straight Down I-25. The baseball team hits I-25 today for the Rio Grande Rivalry at New Mexico State! This isn’t the first time these two have played each other this season. The Lobos took game one in a 14-4 run-rule back in March. Three Lobos hit home runs against the Aggie pitching staff. After tonight, the two will play two more games against each other before the season ends. Game time is set for 6 pm and you can listen right here.

🔼  Not Our Day. The men’s tennis team took their first conference loss of the season at San Diego State, where they fell 4-3. The Lobos were unable to secure the deciding doubles point in a tiebreaker. Arda Azkara and Alex Maggs picked up wins in both singles and doubles. The Lobos move to 2-1 in conference play and will host Air Force and New Mexico State on Saturday.

🔼 Family: First, Last, Always. Defensive coordinator Nick Howell talks about what the theme of Lobo football, “Family: First, Last, Always,” means to him as a father, husband, and a coach. Coaches make family-like relationships with players and their families, while also taking care of their own. Hear more about the overarching theme from Coach Howell.
