The Lady Raiders travel to Las Cruces for game 1 of a 2 game road trip out West. The ladies are riding a 9 game winning streak, & a 2 game lead over 2nd place FIU. The Raiders go into Thursday night's game confidently playing their best ball of the year.
NMSU will be playing with some renewed momentum coming off a 65-59 home win over the UTEP Lady Miners.
Savannah Wheeler has continued her excellent play after being named CUSA Player of the Week for the 3rd time this year with a 31 point effort against FIU.
The Raiders will need to continue their great play as they look to push their NET Rankings beyond their #40 current ranking.

Bad ESPN+ announcers on this call. Hard to listen to this crap.

Rough game for Whitson so far at 0-4 from deep. Probably would have had over 30 point 1st quarter if she had passed ball. Everyone else nice game.

Feels like you can say that alot of games. We settle for the 3 way too much. If we're gonna chuck it up, then it should be Scott and Wheeler.
 
Comfortable lead going into 4th, but very sluggish offense during 2nd & 3rd periods. Ladies need to crank up offensive effort in the 4th. Good defense all game so far!
 
36 point win tonight. That should help our NET rankings a fair amount I would say. Great win. Whitson's 3 point shooting is line-drive most of the time and shooters will eventually get back on track -- just like Gregory shot so badly to start the year and now is on fire, I think she will make 'em rain again soon. Watch UTEP game for a big shooting night for her.

Much better 4th quarter! Usually on a 2 game road trip we play better game 2 than game 1. Along with the fact we like afternoon games. Saturday we play at 2. Hopefully can finish off the road trip on a strong note.
