NMHU was led by Chris Dunn, a native Hobbs player, to its season opener victory over Eastern New Mexico, 81-74.
While USW team members struggle in their season, they look to former Manzano High School star Cesar Cuevas for their first victory.
Game two revisits a battle from the first classic, when Western New Mexico University lost to Eastern New Mexico University 78-72. The game was tied with only 2:30 left in the game before ENMU was able to break away. WNMU, coming off a successful season last year, will be looking to better their one win, one loss record. However, ENMU (0-2) will try to pick up its first win of the season.
The games will be covered by Gallup broadcaster Sammy “Sammy C” Chioda with a play-by-play on www.provewnetworks.com.
Seats are $10 for both games. Game one tips off at 6 p.m. at the Grants High School Gym.
