New Mexico Colleges Open 1969-70 Basketball Season
The 1969-70 season kicks off with NMSU hosting Oklahoma Christian, UNM facing San Fernando Valley State, ENMU at Pikeville, and Western New Mexico meeting Highlands. Henson fears OC’s six-game lead, while UNM’s small lineup relies on Long Becker Gibson Somogyi and Grimes. ENMU defends NAIA title with Hyder brothers and Guymon, but center depth could hurt. Western New Mexico seeks improvement under Dick Drangmeister after a 3-19 season and Highlands’ 0-2 start.
