'The New Mexico Lobos began making noise on a national level when they earned their first NCAA Tournament berth in 1968. Their 15th appearance in the tournament happened in 2014. Since then, the No. 1 goal has always been to get New Mexico back to the Big Dance. The Lobos have reached the Sweet Sixteen round of the NCAA tournament on two occasions. Fans of the Lobos have also had the opportunity to see the team they love accumulate an 18-20 record in 19 National Invitational Tournament appearances. The success of the Lobos begins in their own conference, however. The team has emerged as champions of the regular season of the Mountain West on four occasions. The Lobos have also won four Mountain West Tournament Championships.

'Who is the New Mexico Lobos’ coach?'

'Paul Weir took over as head coach of the New Mexico Lobos in 2007. Weir immediately went to work proving he was the right man for the job and guided a Lobos team that was projected by many experts to finish seventh in the Mountain West Conference to a third-place finish. In his second season, Weir's Lobos crushed the highly ranked Nevada Wolf Pack and went on to appear in the finals of the Mountain West Championship. As the third year of Weir's coaching reign approaches, the New Mexico Lobos are locked and loaded with their eyes on the top spot in the Mountain West. Lobos' fans should have many reasons to cheer the efforts of Coach Weir and get behind their basketball team.'
