ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Some of the best to ever wear Lobo and Aggie uniforms are meeting at Wise Pies Arena AKA The Pit for what is supposed to be a physical game.

“Yeah it’s going to be physical, this is like a sibling rivalry. You know what I am saying, so you get really physical with your siblings so you can let them know who is the big brother,” said former Aggie Wendall McKines.

On Saturday at 7 p.m., faces from the past both older and younger will compete for the first ever Battle of The Rio Grande Alumni title.

“People always ask me if I still can play. Yeah, I still can play, I can still dunk, run and jump, but a lot of these guys here are younger and they still got a lot of pp in their step and they want to show a thing or two,” said Danny Granger.

The mood is set and all there is to do now is see which alumni team comes out on top.

Tickets are still on sale online, and of course walk up tickets will be sold prior to the games 7 p.m. tip off.
