AGGIE UPDATE
NM State turned in a good showing at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Invitational last time out, led by senior Lashira Tremble's efforts on the track.
 
The native of Peoria, Ariz., was in midseason form, setting new personal bests in the 60m dash (7.44 seconds) and 200m race (24.80). She was named the Western Athletic Conference's Indoor Track Athlete of the week, as her performance in the 60m dash was the second fastest time in program history and ranked as the top time in the WAC this season.

Her effort in the 200m, meanwhile, was the WAC's second-best time this year.
