Pokes Battle New Mexico In The Pit

Wyoming men's basketball will hit the road Wednesday night in what will begin a difficult three-game stretch.

Wyoming plays New Mexico Wednesday, at UNLV Saturday, then will host #5 San Diego State Wednesday, Feb. 11.

Wyoming is currently 14-7 overall and 5-3 in conference play.  The Lobos sit at 17-4 overall and 8-1 in conference play.  The Cowboys have not won at The Pit since 2003.

Sophomore guard Josh Adams will not be in uniform for the Cowboys after receiving a technical foul Saturday against Utah State.  Adams was slapped with the one game suspension after a punch to the stomach of a Utah State player.

New Mexico is led by senior forward Cameron Bairstow, who averages 20 points per game. Kendall Williams trails not far behind with 17.6 points per game. Junior forward Larry Nance Jr. leads Wyoming at 16.2 points and 9 rebounds per game.

Gametime is 9:00 p.m. Wednesday night from Albuquerque.
