'Topes Honor Lobo Men's Hoops Team
The entire team was recognized on the field before the game and head coach Steve Alford received the honor of throwing out a ceremonial first pitch.
This past season, the Lobos set a school record for wins after posting a 30-5 record and advanced to the second-round of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1999.
Alford, who is in just his third season at the helm of the Lobos, was recognized as Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year for the second straight time after leading his team to a regular-season conference crown, UNM's first outright conference title since 1999.
