ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) Sam Logwood scored a career-high 17 points and hit a crucial 3-pointer for New Mexico to defeat Air Force on Wednesday night.
Zach Kocur scored 12 points for the Falcons (8-8, 1-4 Mountain West), but no teammate reached double digits.
Although the Lobos (12-5, 4-1) never trailed in the second half, they could not extend the lead beyond five points until inside five minutes. A 7-0 run that began with five foul shots pushed New Mexico's lead to 49-40. But the streak ended when the Lobos' Devon Williams was called for a flagrant foul, which turned into a four-point Air Force possession, cutting the lead to 49-44 with 2:20 left.
On the ensuing possession, Logwood buried a baseline 3-pointer just before the shot clock ran out and the Falcons did not threaten thereafter.
Hugh Greenwood had 11 points and six assists for New Mexico.
