OREM, Utah - Coming off a season-opening draw against Southern Utah, Utah Valley will take to the road for the first time in the 2007 season when the Wolverines head to Albuquerque, N.M. to take on New Mexico and Long Island at the Nike Classic. UV will play the Lobos on Saturday afternoon before facing the Blackbirds Sunday at 11 a.m. "We are looking forward to this weekend, it is a great opportunity to test ourselves against a solid Mountain West Conference team in New Mexico as well as taking on the defending North Eastern Conference Champion," UV head coach Brent Anderson said. "We have trained hard this week and I am anxious to see our improvements since our last match." Utah Valley's Saturday game against New Mexico will have live stats and video coverage.
