NMSU tops rival New Mexico with walkoff 2-run home run, 10-8
LAS CRUCES, New Mexico - The New Mexico State Aggies made it four wins in a row after defeating rival New Mexico, 10-8, Tuesday night in Las Cruces.
With the game tied at 8 in the bottom of the 9th, NMSU's Keith Jones would hit a 2-run home run to cap off the win with a walkoff.
This was the second time this season the Aggies defeated their in-state rival.
NMSU currently leads the four game series, 2-1 with game four scheduled for May 7 in Albuquerque.
But before next week's Rio Grande Rivalry, the Aggies will return to Conference USA play when they host Louisiana Tech for a three game series beginning Friday.
