Stevens: Lobos Roll Rams 67-54, Advance To Play Utah UtesIt's New Mexico vs. Utah, Amy Beggin vs. Kalee Whipple, Don Flanagan vs. Elaine Elliott, tradition vs. tradition and a do-or-die situation. The only way this thing could be any better is if it was a Mountain West Conference championship game instead of a MWC quarterfinal tussle. The Lobos won their first-round MWC tourney game 67-54 over Colorado State and Utah pounded Air Force 63-40. The two teams battle Wednesday in the MWC tourney being held in the Las Vegas Thomas & Mack Center.
