Media B'cast Newswires 2011 49 22 19 4 2 2 Halfway home: Looking back, ahead at Aggies and WAC Project: 2011 Date: 1/24/2011 Media Type: Print Tone: Positive Outlet: Las Cruces Sun-News (NM) Journalist: Jason Groves City: Las Cruces State: NM Jan. 24--While the halfway point is still a game away, we can already see some trends developing for the New Mexico State men's basketball team, as well as the Western Athletic Conference. The Aggies have hovered around .500 all season. Now 10-11, it should come as no surprise their conference record is also average. NMSU sits at 4- 3 in WAC play, but since the Aggies begin their second trip through most league opponents this weekend, it seemed like a good time to look back and ahead. With a new look for the WAC Tournament bracket, which awards the top two teams a bye into the semifinals, there could be cause for concern regarding the Aggies current spot in fifth place. NMSU was the first team with a conference road win, beating Idaho on opening weekend. On that same trip, the Aggies outplayed Boise State for 30 minutes before losing by three. Their home win against Fresno State (who came into the Pan American Center 3-0 in the conference) isn't as impressive, since the Bulldogs have lost their last four. The second-half schedule also provides reason for optimism. NMSU plays five of its last nine WAC games at the Pan Am. Boise State and Idaho make the return trip to Las Cruces this weekend. The Aggies follow that up with a road game at Fresno State (3-4) and back-to- back games against winless Louisiana Tech. The Aggies then make the always challenging San Jose State/Hawaii road trip, which appears easier than in past years. It all sets the Aggies up for meaningful home games against Utah State (March 2) and Nevada (March 5) to close out the season. After an up and down start, that's all the Aggies could ask for. --- From an individual standpoint, NMSU junior forward Troy Gillenwater has been terrific. Gillenwater leads the league in scoring in WAC play and has showed toughness in his first year as a starter, playing through a foot and ankle injury. Due to early-season injuries, young players have been asked to step in right away. Some have responded better than others. It's unfair and unrealistic to expect much from freshmen or sophomores playing for the first time. You take what you can get from young guys. One player who needs to return to form for the Aggies to contend is junior center Hamidu Rahman. Rahman has missed games due to a calf injury this season, but even before the injury, his production was less than what we expected from him entering the year.
