Baseball: Lobos keeps Northern Colorado Bears in hibernation

The University of New Mexico baseball team kept the good times rolling as it swept the University of Northern Colorado Bears and moved to 8-0, the team's best start since the 1973 season. On Friday, Feb. 20, it appeared that the Lobos simply picked up where they left off the previous week against the Fordham Rams. The Lobos dominated game one of the series against the Bears with a 16-5 victory that was called after 7 innings, as per the NCAA’s run rule.  That was a productive day all around for the Lobo batters who had 11 walks to just 3 strikeouts to complement the 7 extra-base hits that included 4 home runs in that ball game.
