The Lobos got a much-needed result on Saturday night in its match against #25 FIU. It was a very important result because it allowed the Lobos to keep the seven seed for the Conference USA tournament and, with only one match left at home against last place FAU on Friday, gives them the edge to make the tournament. I was glad to see that the Lobos picked up their play after the match against Charlotte and in a match that I didn’t know how Lobos would respond, the coaches and players came out and played a very good match to get another point in the standings.

UNM Women’s Soccer AT Boise State Preview
New Mexico (3-5-0, 1-0-0) AT Boise State (3-5-3, 1-0-0)
Both the Lobos and Broncos are coming off Conference opening wins on Friday, with the Lobos beating Utah State 1-0 on the road, and the Broncos beating SDSU at home 2-1. This will be an interesting game to see how it plays out the two sides have one common opponent in Idaho State with two very different results, the Lobos won their match against Idaho State 4-1, while the Broncos had a 1-1 draw in their match. It is still early in Mountain West play but if the Lobos can find another great result today against the Broncos it sets them up well for a great conference season.
SDSU Possible Rules Violations: Why it is bad for Lobo basketball
It was announced on Tuesday September 15th by Gary Parrish of CBS Sports that the NCAA has launched an investigation on the San Diego State University Men’s Basketball program. At this point, Parrish reports that the investigation hasn’t become a formal investigation, which means that NCAA isn’t working with SDSU right now with the investigation, but are instead doing the ground work for a potential investigation. I want to make it clear that this post isn’t trying to point fingers at SDSU, but is instead looking at how this will potentially affect and hurt the Lobos men’s basketball program and the other Mountain West basketball programs. We don’t know what sort of timeframe will be involved with this investigation, the penalties (if there are any), and how long those possible penalties will last. This is huge news for Mountain West basketball fans and it shouldn’t be taken lightly, as it isn’t good for the conference as a whole.
