NEW MEXICO STATE AGGIES NEWS

Xavier Pinson - Cleared by NCAA Aggies head coach Greg Heiar said Monday that Pinson (not injury related) has been cleared to play, Jeff Goodman of Stadium reports.

Impact Pinson had been waiting to hear back from the NCAA regarding his eligibility waiver for 2022-23, but it appears the guard has successfully gained clearance ahead of Monday's season opener against New Mexico Highlands. Pinson averaged 9.8 points, 4.8 assists and 1.9 steals across 28.0 minutes per contest last season at LSU, and he should be one of the Aggies' key pieces this season in his final year of eligibility.
