I have tons of great memories of LB highlights. They include:
1) Jan 7 1993 win over #12 UNLV at the Goldmine. I never heard a louder crowd than down the stretch in that game we won 101-94, later that year, winning the BW tourney at the LB arena over ranked UNLV and NMSU too.
2) Mostly, I have been a MBB fan, though following a variety of sports in a secondary manner. But, I got to see the 2019 National Championship match at the Pyramid, it was very memorable.

3) 1973 over Marquette (I was a child but there)
2) WVB 1998 in Pyramid over Hawaii with Misty.
1) 90s Dirtbags, including CWS. Fun years.

I went to LBSU in the late 80's and early 90's and women's volleyball, women's basketball, and softball was king. My most memorable moment was when wbb beat the Russian national team in the gold mine after they swept through all the other college teams. After that the national champion wins for both WVB and MVB.

Mine is 3-3-1973 at the LB Arena when Tark and the 49ers beat 6th-ranked Marquette 76-66 in front of a sold-out crowd of 12,987. Al McGuire was livid on the bench in the 4th quarter.
