ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico—The UNM men’s basketball team jumped out to a 16–2 lead over Northern Arizona in Thursday’s exhibition but cooled off en route to 64-54 win. Antonio Chol (20 points) and Jake Hall (12) led the Lobos, who shot 36% overall and 31% from three. Coach Eric Olen said the team “regressed” in shot selection and UNM struggled with turnovers and missed free throws. After dominating early defensively, UNM allowed NAU to shoot 45% in the second half. The Lobos will start the regular season next Wednesday at 7:00 pm against East Texas A&M.
