Lobos Look to Extend Winning Streak Against Aztecs at The Pit

As the New Mexico Lobos prepare to host the San Diego State Aztecs at The Pit, fans can anticipate an exciting clash. The Lobos have been on a winning streak, showcasing their dominance in recent games with impressive statistics that suggest they're in fine form heading into this matchup.

In their last game against the Spartans, the Lobos cruised to a comfortable 72-51 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot 46 percent from beyond the arc and secured a commendable 87 percent from the free-throw line. Their defense wasn't far behind either, forcing 19 turnovers and converting them into 20 points.

Prior to that, facing off against the Rams proved less challenging for New Mexico's squad as they emerged victorious with a score of 62-46. They maintained consistency in their field goal attempts with a solid 46 percent shooting performance while also dominating rebounds by securing 46 compared to their opponents' 28.

However, it's worth noting that when playing away against San Diego State earlier this season, the Lobos were narrowly defeated by seven points in a tightly contested game where both teams fought hard for every point. Despite outscoring San Diego State in paint points and matching them on assists, turnovers proved costly for New Mexico.

The upcoming game promises to be an intriguing one as both teams are familiar foes with history between them. With home-court advantage and riding high on recent successes, New Mexico will look to leverage The Pit's energetic atmosphere while aiming for another win to bolster their record.

Fans eager not to miss any action can catch this anticipated encounter scheduled for February 29th at The Pit in Albuquerque at local time (US/Mountain).
