NMSU Wins 3rd WAC Title in 4 Years

   Las Vegas, NV - For the third time in four years, the New Mexico State Aggies are going dancing! They defeated the UT-Arlington Mavericks 64-55 on Saturday in the 2013 WAC Tournament Championship game.

The Aggies (24-10) had to fight off a UTA rally at the end, but eventually got it done. NMSU opened the second half up on a 19-8 run to lead 51-38, their biggest lead of the night with 11:27 left.

Freshman Sim Bhullar carried NMSU to victory with a dominating 16 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 blocked shots.

With the victory, New Mexico State has won a total of four WAC titles in eight years since joining the conference prior to the 2005-2006 season.

Sorry for this blog being so short, but I was unprepared to write it. Future blogs will be linked with this one.
