NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – The Lobo women’s basketball team took care of business on the road on Thursday night. The Lobos took down Pepperdine 57-48 and are now 2-0 to start the season.

The Lobos also held Pepperdine to 32% from the field and forced 17 turnovers.
Junior guard Aniyah Augmon was all over the floor for the Lobos as she led in multiple categories. She led the team in points (16), rebounds (9) and tied for the team lead in assists (3).
