LEGISLATIVE SESSION

In address, Richardson warns of tax hikes by Barry Massey and Susan Montoya Bryan Associated Press

the UNM administration. “There are plenty of other things on campus that money could have gone to that would have been more beneficial,” Wooley said. “Mitchell Hall seemed to me to be, overall, a functional building.” Wooley said he recognizes that the building had lighting problems in the classrooms and the limited amount of technology offered inside, but in this time of budget crisis there is no need to put that much money into the job.

SANTA FE, N.M.— Gov. Bill Richardson warned Tuesday of possible government worker layoffs in the coming year if state agency budgets are slashed, and he opposed reinstating the sales tax on food to deal with New Mexico’s financial problems. On the opening day of the Legislature’s 30-day session, Richardson mapped out an ambitious agenda for lawmakers to pursue in addition to balancing the state’s budget during a time of slumping revenues. “How we respond to tough times like these is a test of who we are as a people,” Richardson said. He proposed a package of ethics and campaign finance reforms, allowing domestic partnerships for unmarried same-sex couples, tougher penalties for drunken driving, a statewide ban on cell phones while driving and measures to promote clean energy development. Senate Republican Whip William Payne said the governor put too much on the Legislature’s plate and controversial issues such as domestic partnerships will slow down legislative proceedings and divert attention from the budget. “These are issues that bring a lot of attention into the Capitol,” said Payne. “Some people benefit from confusion in the system, but I don’t think the taxpayers this year necessarily need that kind of distraction.

Mitchell’s makeover

by Tim Mousseau Daily Lobo

Mitchell Hall is now open – new, improved and odorless. “We believe we got that (the smell) taken care off,” said Jep Choate, an associate registrar. “I have been in the building now for the past two or three weeks and know the restrooms have been used some — still no smell.” Choate attributed the smell problem mostly to old sewage problems and bad ventilation. Technological changes to

Mitchell include improved learning equipment in classrooms, such as wireless Internet access and a computer pod. The renovations took one year and $9.5 million. Mitchell Hall also has a new interior, energy efficient heating, upgraded restrooms, additional seating areas and an Outtake’s Deli. Choate said most of the classrooms are smaller due to renovations. What the University lost in size they hope to make up for in seating, he said. Before the renovation, 500 classes were taught at Mitchell Hall each semester. Choate said Mitchell

Hall now has fewer classrooms but would not specify how many. “There are fewer classrooms and a few classrooms have decreased in size,” Choate said. “However, there is new furnishing in all classrooms, even some tables at the request of teachers. The furniture makes the rooms more flexible.” Despite all the changes, some students do not feel the renovations are worth the $9.5 million price tag. Junior Ryan Wooley said he is excited about the changes made to Mitchell Hall, but does not think they should have been a priority to

Lt. Gov. hopefuls weigh myriad issues by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo

More than 200 UNM students and community members came to the UNM School of Law last Thursday to decide which Democratic lieutenant governor candidate they would support. Students voiced ideas for change to the five candidates — Jerry Ortiz y Pino, Lawrence Rael, Joe Campos, Linda Lopez and Brian Colon — during the Democratic Party of Bernalillo County’s lieutenant governor candidates’ forum. “I just came to see what the different candidates for lieutenant governor have to say. There are so many running, it’s kind of exciting,” said

student Jake Wellman. “The health care debate — that’s a big thing. Also, a huge issue to me is the environment and higher education.” Each candidate was asked five questions with topics including national health care and tax increases. Diane Denish, New Mexico’s lieutenant governor, is running for governor during the November elections. Candidate Jerry Ortiz y Pino — a state senator for five years — said it is necessary to advocate for changes in government that Democrats want. “Most of the other candidates are wonderful people, but they’re very centrist in their views,” Ortiz y Pino said. “I think that if we mimic the Republicans by offering centrist candidates, we’re going to have a hard

time attracting the voters that elected Obama.” Ortiz y Pino said his first priority, if elected, would be to fix New Mexico’s tax policy. He said the tax laws on the books now give cuts to the wealthy and put a burden on the poor. Candidate Joe Campos, mayor of Santa Rosa and a state representative, said his recent trip to Germany solidified the importance of his main campaign platform — renewable energy. He also said he is in favor of national health care. “I am a perfect example of good health care,” he said at the forum. “Just two years ago, I had a disk removed in my back. I was pretty much a cripple. Good health care is able

news in brief ROSEVILLE, Calif.— A driver whose SUV plunged into a northern California creek after he was startled by his hands-free cell phone device escaped the sinking vehicle by blasting out the window with a handgun. The 28-year-old man, whose name wasn’t immediately available, is an armed security guard at Thunder Valley Casino, north of Sacramento. He sustained minor injuries in Sunday’s accident. A spokesman for the Roseville Fire Department said the man was traveling northbound on Industrial Avenue in Roseville when the cell phone device activated. The driver was startled and veered off the road through the guardrail. The SUV landed in Pleasant Grove Creek. He used his gun to shoot himself out, then flagged down a passerby. CHICAGO— Two Illinois men have been charged in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme aimed at killing a federal prosecutor and drug enforcement agent. Charges were announced Tuesday against 41-year-old Jack Mann of Naperville and 39-year-old Frank Caira of Downers Grove. FBI agents say Mann told them he’d been urged by Caira to ask a gang member how much it would cost to have the officials killed. Mann allegedly told the agents Caira wanted the officials killed

because they were involved in prosecuting him on marijuana and methamphetamine charges. Mann’s attorney, Michael J. Petro, says he’s treating the charges seriously. A message was left for Caira’s attorney, Jeffrey Fawell. Court documents refer to the officials allegedly targeted only as Victim 1 and Victim 2. NAPOLEON TOWNSHIP, Mich.— A Jonesville woman was charged with biting off part of her sister’s nose. Bobbie Smith was held in the Jackson County Jail on a $5,000 bond after her arraignment Tuesday on charges including mayhem and domestic violence. Napoleon Township Police Chief Michael Curry said the 27year-old woman bit off “a significant portion” of Sandra Smith’s nose during a fight Sunday. Police recovered the detached piece. Assistant Prosecutor Mark Blumer told the Jackson Citizen Patriot that photographs indicated one-third of Sandra Smith’s nose was bitten off. The 28-year-old woman was to meet with a plastic surgeon at University of Michigan Hospital. Mayhem, defined in part under a 1931 Michigan law as mutilating another person’s nose, is a 10-year felony. Jail records didn’t indicate if

Bobbie Smith had a lawyer. SAN DIEGO— A Guatemalan woman became the second fatality in a boat packed with suspected illegal immigrants that capsized when it struck a buoy, authorities said Tuesday. Marbilia Judith Gabriel Mejia died at Scrippos La Jolla Hospital, said hospital spokeswoman Lisa Ohmstede. She declined to disclose the time of death. The deaths in Saturday’s mishap near Torrey Pines State Beach mark the first fatalities since U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement began noting a spike in sea smuggling off the San Diego shores nearly three years ago, said agency spokeswoman Lauren Mack. Two Mexican men, Fernando Figueroa and Javier Jimenez, pleaded not guilty to immigrant smuggling charges Tuesday in federal court in San Diego. According to the complaint, a survivor identified them as the crew. Jimenez told investigators that he was to be paid $2,000 to help guide the boat to the United States and that he planned to return to Mexico by sea. There were 24 suspected illegal immigrants aboard the 30-foot boat, including the two defendants, authorities say.

to help people become productive citizens in our community. It’s not something that has to be a privilege. It is a right.” Candidate Lawrence Rael said he favors health care for children and seniors. However, he said New Mexico shouldn’t pass a bill for statewide health care until there is action at the national level first. Also, according to Rael’s Web site, he managed and planned the Rail Runner and Explora science center. “When you look at projects like the New Mexico Rail Runner Express, it was a project that has been talked about for 30 years, and I did it in 5 years,” he said. “I’ve managed million dollar budgets.” Candidate Linda Lopez said that as a single mother and caretaker of her mom, she will pursue legislation that will help children and seniors. “I’m not shy. I’m not afraid to take on anybody to debate, whatever the issue is,” she said. “I’m a fighter.” Lopez said she would travel around the state to get a better idea of what New Mexicans need. She also said she would tackle problems like the high school drop-out rate and behavioral health. Candidate Brian Colon said education is his most important initiative. He said graduation rates aren’t always indicative of how well kids are doing in school. Literacy rates and

competency scores are sometimes more important, he said. Colon also spoke about his desire to give back to the state of New Mexico. “I came from a home of poverty. My parents were on welfare,” he said. “I was the first in my family to go to college. I have an obligation to live a life of gratitude and service, and that’s what I try to do every day.” Colon said he traveled to all 33 counties in New Mexico and will use what he learned to make decisions in office. Arman Salehian, president of the UNM College Democrats, said he came to the forum to see which candidate would best represent college students and New Mexico. Salehian said the election for lieutenant governor is important and will affect UNM. “Lieutenant governor has a very influential role on how things are done up in Santa Fe,” Salehian said. “When it comes to budgeting, UNM gets a lot of money from the state House and the state legislature. If we have a strong advocate for lieutenant governor, we can make sure the UNM experience is best for all students.” The Republican candidates for lieutenant governor have no plans to hold a similar forum, said a representative from the Republican Party of Bernalillo County.

From the web In Tuesday’s paper, a staff report titled “How Albuquerque is helping Haiti,” listed three ways members of the UNM community can donate food and money to Haiti after the Jan. 12 earthquake. Readers at DailyLobo.com responded: by ‘Steve Chavez’ Posted Tuesday Why spend billions to move trash to rebuild trash? What percentage of the houses were made of scraps and junk? How many millions will be spent on each building to bring it up to California code standards to withstand another earthquake in a now active fault? Every leader of Haiti has stolen most of all international aid. Most of the progress in Haiti is due to church and humanitarian organizations, but all this will not aid the Haitians in the long run since all aid is welfare and will keep the people dependent on that welfare. by ‘Esther’ Posted Tuesday Do you really think that what Haiti needs are resorts and more slave labor jobs? What kind of an elitist are you? Resorts destroy farm land, pollute the waters and only bring very lowpaying jobs. They also eat up natural resources. Why not encourage them to build an infrastructure that creates good-paying jobs that make them competitive in the world market? Join the discussion at the DailyLobo.com

Letter SUB needs to support campus radio station, broadcast KUNM Editor, All hail KUNM radio! I was glad to see an article in your Jan. 11 issue concerning KUNM radio and UNM students. Yes, more students do need to become aware of the visionary programming that is broadcast on our University radio station. To this end — and at least based on what I was able to glean from the article — it seems that the Keystone International Inc. consulting group (hired to make recommendations to the radio station in terms of its relationship to the University — and I am sure were paid really, really well) overlooked one kind-of-obvious recommendation. Why is it that UNM (an institution that has an award-winning radio station) allows the Student Union Building to broadcast into every nook and cranny of their facility that absolutely nondescript (and somewhat offensive) music/radio that they do? Why is KUNM radio not the soundtrack of the Student Union Building? This would be one way to introduce many students to the joys of quality radio. Bryan Konefsky UNM faculty

Column

MLK’s legacy should inspire social change by Anthony Fleg

Daily Lobo guest columnist The Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday serves as an annual reminder of two of this country’s highest ideals — serving others and the creation of an equitable society. This year, amid the economic turmoil of our country and the suffering of our brothers and sisters in Haiti, the lessons from Dr. King’s life and the message of this holiday provided timely reminders to each of us individually and to society as a whole. “A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom,” King said in 1967. I include this quote not only as a protest against our continued escalation in military spending nationally, but also to bring this closer to home. I had the opportunity to visit a local middle school last week and saw an environment that echoes more of militarism than of social uplift. Bathrooms locked, lockers taken away, field trips cancelled and as the youth told me, “All because of the crime here.” This punitive environment is the best we can do to serve and empower our next generation of leaders? And how many other elements of our society can we think of that fit with this theme — more resources poured into punishment and enforcement than in the social services that could prevent the former from being needed. We criminalize addictions, and instead of treating the addicts, we

toward fair wages (when compared to males and whites, respectively), much evidence would suggest stagnation of progress in this realm as well. The equitable society that King and other social prophets championed comes down to a simple, troubling question: Do we value all citizens, all humans, as equal? At times, it seems that we are satisfied by simply agreeing that all humans should be treated as equal as opposed to working, crying, sweating, teaching and protesting until this becomes a reality. The extensive inequities in America that distinguish us from the rest of the industrialized world clearly show, regardless of the flowery language used (e.g. “land of opportunity”), that we do not value all lives equally. If we do, we sure have a strange way of showing it in our society. We must begin to cure the epidemic of individualism in our country if we are to make true strides toward a more equitable society, replacing individual wealth/power/prestige/degrees with an emphasis on systems that promote success collectively. And we must be able to do this without immediately jumping into divisive political debates (our current default), and we should advance the discourse to a more unified focus on change toward equity. As you enjoy Black History month, do take a day to consider how to strengthen your service and how to more effectively work for equality. Then comes the harder part — to live that change you want to see.

incarcerate them. We continue to see the hospitals in our city chase thousands of citizens into bankruptcy each year instead of creating a system that doesn’t punish people for getting sick. When I think of the service to our community needed to dismantle such systems, it is something much more than soup kitchen service measured in volunteer hours. Using this analogy, what we need is to find out why people are hungry and why certain groups are disproportionately left without food, rather than simply serving up a hot meal. It requires service that makes us thermometers, not merely thermostats — we must be willing to change the temperature ourselves, facing the opwposition and resistance that status quo and its cadre will bring. Dr. King is also quoted to have said, “History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people but the appalling silence of the good people.” Yes, some things have changed since the Civil Rights movement. For instance, more wealth has risen from the hands of the masses into the hands of a few, making America less economically equitable than it was in the era of Jim Crow laws and segregated lunch counters. Educational status, health inequities and poverty rates persist disproportionately in the same populations afflicted half a century ago. And while women and minorities have made some strides

Raising b-ball baskets would improve entertainment value Editor, Here it is once again — basketball season. It seems to last forever. I may be naïve, but I have a couple of observations to make. The regulation height of a basketball hoop is 10 feet whether you are playing high

school, college or pro ball. With a cursory observation, most of the players seem to be over 6 feet tall and some even 7 feet tall. When my daughter was in second grade, she won the honor of representing all the second graders at her school at the “AllCity Hoop Shoot” sponsored by the Lions Club. She made two baskets out of 25 from the free throw line. She was about 3 feet tall. It seems rather ironic that so much ado about nothing occurs when a

6-to-7-foot player makes a basket. It is really ridiculous when they hang on the basket. I suggest raising the basket for college and pro ball about four feet higher to put the “sport” back into the sport of basketball. I realize probably no one will agree with me, but my view will give people something to think about. Patricia Fordney Daily Lobo reader

We need to get it right on our longterm budget.” The budget will dominate the session. Revenues next year are projected to fall $600 million short of what’s needed to cover the current level of services and spending on education and general government programs, including health care for the needy. To balance the budget, lawmakers are looking at spending cuts and possible tax increases to raise more revenue. House Speaker Ben Lujan, DSanta Fe, appealed for a bipartisan effort on the budget, saying, “There must be a collective sacrifice and a willingness to give and compromise so no one bears a heavier burden of sacrifice than the other.” Richardson said most state

agencies “have been cut to the bone.” He cautioned that “any further cuts would mean certain layoffs, closing facilities and ending public services when our citizens need them most.” The governor opposed a proposal by a legislative panel to cut teacher salaries by 2 percent to help deal with budget problems. “Even in a time of shortfall, I insist that education must remain our top investment,” said Richardson. It was Richardson’s final speech to a joint session of the Legislature. His term runs through December, and he cannot seek re-election. The governor has not yet endorsed a specific tax proposal to help plug next year’s budget shortfall, but he told lawmakers he opposed reinstating the gross receipts tax on food.

The tax was lifted in 2005, but the state could gain $228 million if it’s imposed again. “We cannot ask working New Mexicans to pay more for groceries when too many are struggling to make ends meet,” Richardson said. Anti-tax protesters rallied outside the Capitol and among them was former Gov. Gary Johnson, a Republican who prided himself on keeping a lid on state spending during his eight years in office. Johnson was dressed in a heavy down jacket as he stood in a snowstorm, waving a placard, “No New Taxes.” “I am outraged. This does not have to be happening and it is,” Johnson said of the possibility of tax increases.

“(The) $9.5 million is a lot of money when our tuition is being raised, work study was cut, our teachers are underpaid and our economy is still down,” he said. Senior Theresa Rogers said the renovations are worth the cost. Rogers said she has taken five classes in Mitchell and the building seemed old and outdated. “The signature aroma of the building is eliminated,” she said. “There were definitely improvements that needed to be made. The

$9.5 million price tag revamped a critical component in the educational mission of the University.” While the newly remodeled hall will provide more classrooms and create work spaces for students, Rogers said she is still worried about overcrowding. “I’m not sure if the capacity of the classrooms changed at all,” she said. “There was one class I took in Mitchell that was so crowded that I sat on the floor once or twice.” All classrooms are equipped

with a projector, screen, speakers, DVD/VHS player, and wall and ceiling ports to connect to the projector and an instructor’s station. One of the classrooms has been converted into a computer pod with 26 computers and several smaller walk-up stations. Choate said the University is setting its sights on Ortega Hall next. “In the future, depending all on funding, we hope to take a look at Ortega Hall,” Choate said. “We hope to upgrade some of the classrooms.”

high unemployment, industry bailouts, exploding federal budget deficits and partisan wrangling over health care. For weeks considered a long shot, Brown seized on such discontent to overtake Coakley in the final stretch of the campaign. Surveys showed his candidacy energized Republicans, including backers of the grass-roots “tea party” movement, while attracting disappointed Democrats and independents uneasy with where they felt the nation was heading. Turnout was relatively heavy for a special election despite a mix of snow and rain showers across the

state virtually all day. Though he wasn’t on the ballot, the president was on many voters’ minds. “I voted for Obama because I wanted change. ... I thought he’d bring it to us, but I just don’t like the direction that he’s heading,” said John Triolo, 38, a registered independent who voted in Fitchburg. He said his frustrations, including what he considered the tooquick pace of health care legislation, led him to vote for Brown. But Robert Hickman, 55, of New Bedford, said he backed Coakley “to stay on the same page with the president.”

Obama flew to Boston for last-ditch personal campaigning on Sunday. With 100 percent of precincts counted, Brown led Coakley, 51.9 percent to 47 percent, the New York Times reported.

Virginia shooter at large after leaving eight dead by Larry O’Dell Associated Press

APPOMATTOX, Va.— A lone shooter killed eight people in central Virginia, with seven bodies found at one home, police said Tuesday. State police said officers had the suspect, Christopher Speight, 39, circled in the woods late Tuesday near the home and they believed he was still alive. The eighth shooting victim was found on the side of the road and died on the way to the hospital, police said. All the victims were adults and both men and women were killed, state police Sgt. Thomas Molnar said. Police refused to speculate on a motive and would not say what type of weapon was used. Molnar also gave no background on the suspect. The drama paralyzed the rural area as police swarmed forests trying to flush out the suspect who, at one point in the manhunt, fired at a state police helicopter, forcing it to land with a ruptured fuel tank. No police were injured

after one or more rounds struck the helicopter. Canine units and a National Guard helicopter with thermal imaging equipment were being used to search the woods. “They are searching the area and will continue until the suspect is apprehended,” Molnar said. The violence began shortly after noon when the injured man was found on a rural stretch of road. A deputy who went to investigate fled after he heard gunshots, police spokeswoman Corrine Geller said. “When the deputy arrived on the scene, that’s when he heard several shots,” Molnar said. Police did not release the victims’ names or the suspect’s possible relationship to them. Authorities told nearby residents to stay inside and a small Christian school was locked down until state police could escort about 60 children from the building. Resident Bethel Hawkins said police warned families to lock their doors in an area with many senior citizens.

Lobo head coach Steve Alford wants his team to emphasize defense against Air Force (8-8 overall, 0-3 Mountain West Conference) and its Princeton offense Wednesday at Clune Arena in Colorado Springs, Colo. “We talk about defensive patience when you play a team like Air Force,” Alford said. “You don’t usually hear that very much. But you have to have patience defensively, because they are going to run that Princeton offense, and they run it over, and over, and over and over.” UNM is riding a two-game

He played a tailored position as point guard. Inevitably, Iverson’s inability to morph styles led to him being phased out among the modern-day NBA elite.

Era of Iverson, McGrady obsolete in modern NBA Superstars’ demand for the ball render them unimportant, making a rough transition into post-prime abyss by Damian Garde Daily Lobo

If you’ve been paying attention to NBA All-Star voting, you might have noticed a bizarre trend. Alongside mainstays like LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, two legends on the outs are getting quite a bit of electoral attention from basketball fans. Allen Iverson and Tracy McGrady are once-in-a-lifetime talents — one an undersized offensive psychopath

who never met a man he couldn’t score on, the other a stat-sheet stuffer who once put up 13 points in 35 seconds. There’s just one problem: A.I. and T-Mac are essentially washed up. It doesn’t seem so long ago that Iverson, the consummate warrior, was at once baffling defenses and invigorating small-minded pundits who shout to anyone who’ll listen that the league is filled with thugs. Same for McGrady, who used to exasperate opposing coaches with his size, quickness and guile. The fact that they’re getting AllStar votes can be easily explained — McGrady has a sizable Chinese fan base thanks to his gargantuan teammate, and Iverson connected with fans like no other player in the post-Jordan era. But what forced them

Blowout not guaranteed come Air Force clash by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo

Chris Rock once observed the agonizing drudgery of attending dinner as a single man with a married couple. Of it, he said, “Oh, it’s just disgusting!” That about sums up how today’s contest is bound to end up for the Air Force Academy’s women’s basketball team, when the Falcons travel to face the UNM women’s basketball team at The Pit. The Falcons are a making in Mountain West Conference tragicomedy. So the plot goes — tragically, they are among the conference’s most inspired inhabitants, playing with an outpouring of gnash, said Lobo coach Don Flanagan, not seen in more talented, less hard-working teams. Comically, however, Air Force has always been the ganache to — not only the Lobos’ pastry — but to conferences. And, in particular, the Falcons have been tasty morsels for Flanagan, who is a spic-and-span 25-0 against the Academy. Collectively, the Lobos are 26-1 against AFA. Of those 26 wins, all have been decided by an average of 24.3 points per game. The Falcons last win dates back to 1992, a 61-41 thumping

Vanessa Sanchez / Daily Lobo Head coach Don Flanagan said the Lobos can’t take Air Force Academy lightly, even though he’s never lost to the Falcons during his tenure at UNM. The Lobos will look to move to 3-2 in the Mountain West Conference with a victory over AFA tonight. over UNM in Colorado Springs. Still, Amanda Best said UNM isn’t looking past the Academy — however difficult that might be. “They’re going to go after loose balls,” she said. “They’re going to keep playing even if they’re down 40.” For better or worse, AFA head coach Ardie McInelly, who inherited the sagging program, has remained loyal and committed to building a program at the Academy. Mitigating circumstances out of McInelly’s control, Flanagan said, have contributed to the institution’s slumping ways, whose conference losing streak has stretched to 21 consecutive games. “Ardie was coach of the year for two years (in the Big West) prior to coming to this conference,” Flanagan said. “She’s a fine coach and a great

The UNM women’s tennis team finds itself in an unfamiliar position entering the 2010 dual season. For the first time in more than a decade, the Lobos are the underdogs. Usually known as one of the top teams in the Mountain West Conference, UNM trails No. 27 Texas Christian, No. 41 UNLV, No. 42 San Diego State, No. 62 Utah and No. 64 Brigham Young in Intercollegiate Tennis Association national polls. But that doesn’t deter the Lobos. “We’re in a position to pick up some upsets this season,” said head coach Roy Cañada. “All the pressure in the world is on higher-ranked teams to beat us. At the same time, we have nothing to lose.” That’s not to say the cards aren’t stacked against the up-and-coming Lobos. “We have one of the youngest teams,” Cañada said. “We don’t have any seniors on our roster, and our two juniors are the only players with any real significant experience.” UNM will rely on leadership from juniors Ashley Bonner and Anya Villanueva. Both bring two years of playing experience to the young team.

Colin Bridge / Daily Lobo Anya Villanueva, seen here blasting a ball crosscourt, brings two years of college experience to an otherwise young UNM women’s tennis team. The Lobos will look to overcome their youth in the spring season. “Anya and Ashley were kind of thrust into a leadership role,” Cañada said. “They went from competing for a spot on the team last year to the No. 1 and No. 2 spots this semester.” The Lobos also picked up newcomers Kristin Eggleston of Palm Desert, Calif., Michaela Oldani of Scottsdale, Ariz., Laura Richardson of St. Louis, Mo., and Amy Shipperd of Melbourne, Australia, who have all rapidly gained collegiate experience in the fall season. “The freshmen bring a lot of

out of the NBA kingdom and into the wilderness is a bit more nuanced. Iverson came into the league as 5-feet, 11-inches of tattoos, topped with a decidedly defiant set of cornrows. In a league then looking for a marquee superstar, he positioned himself as the anti-Jordan: He didn’t care about marketing, sponsorships or the financial health of the NBA. He was unabashedly tied to the blighted culture that spawned him, and that endeared him to a whole generation of basketball fans. McGrady’s emergence was less of a milestone for the NBA. He was a dangerous tweener — a hybrid between a shooting guard and small forward — who could score from anywhere on the court. However, the two shared the same sneering swagger, the same absurd scoring ability and the same unwillingness to pass the ball. And then it all fell apart. In 2008, Iverson was traded for Chauncey Billups — the Honda Civic to his Escalade — and McGrady’s Rockets grew weary (and suspicious) of his constant injuries and stuck him on Injured Reserve with all possible contempt. Since then, Iverson has bounced from team to team and threatened

Women’s

retirement. The Rockets have essentially locked out a now-healthy McGrady and opted to rebuild the team around a bunch of role players. It was a dizzying trip from All-Star to afterthought for the two legends, and it had less to do with a decline in their skills than with a sea change in the NBA. Immediately after Jordan’s retirement, the league was a superstar-driven organization: The path to absolution involved nabbing a transcendent player, surrounding him with complementary pieces and hoping for the best. But the annual failures of Iverson’s Nuggets, McGrady’s Rockets and the pre-Pau Gasol Lakers began to change the minds of the powers that are in the NBA. All of it came to a head with the 2007-08 Celtics, a squad of Super Friends who sacrificed their stats and spotlights in the interest of team chemistry and playoff success. That experiment, of course, ended in a championship, and general managers league-wide took notice. Now, when looking at free agents, GMs focus as much on numbers as on attitude, composure and willingness to play second fiddle.

And thus, the Ballad of A.I. and T-Mac: They’re two men who must dominate the ball in order to win, but they’re trapped in a league where one-man teams get bounced out of the playoffs with hardly a sweat broken. They’re talented enough to reinvent themselves as role players on a contender, but, as Iverson found out last year, coming off the bench just doesn’t jibe with an alpha-dog pedigree. In their place are postmodern superstars like James and Kevin Durant, players who value winning games as much as winning the respect of their teammates. Furthermore, the next generation of big-name ballplayers, like Kentucky’s John Wall, has grown up watching today’s chemistry-first rosters, meaning the era of the topheavy team is likely never to return. That leaves Iverson and McGrady — victims of the game’s evolution, all-or-nothing players whose success came at the expense of their teams. History may leave them behind, but at least we’ll remember Iverson derisively stepping over Tyronn Lue in 2001 and McGrady pushing Spurs fans to the brink of insanity in 2004. They may have been caustic and counterproductive, but they were amazing to watch.

in. Consequently, she’s limited in her recruiting. I’d say 10 to 15 percent of those players that she recruits actually come to the Air Force Academy, either because they can’t get in or they don’t want to be in a military institution. She’s in a position where she loses a lot, and that’s tough for any coach.” Even so, Flanagan said the Lobos won’t be puppet masters, pulling strings and exerting their will — Air Force won’t be easy to control. “This game could be perceived as easy, but they’re going to play 100

percent as hard as they can,” Flanagan said. “You get some teams that are way more talented that won’t play as hard.” Amy Beggin said the Lobos will have to contend with Air Force’s matchup zone. “I think (we’ll) run some more of our man stuff — try to create unbalances,” she said. “Try to overload sides and skip the ball over to the other side.” The Falcons’ primary scorer, Raimee Beck, is averaging 14.7 points

per game, despite AFA’s everlasting struggles. But the Lobos have Best, who is coming off a career-high 21-point game in a 74-61 whitewash over Wyoming. Beggin said Best is capable of pouring in points at any given time. “I think it was a pretty quiet 21 she had,” Beggin said. “She’s a bigtime scorer, but, during the game, I don’t think we realized she had that many points.”

Hardeman has shined. Hardeman was named MWC Player of the Week, and he is the third Lobo who has garnered that honor this season, making UNM the only team in the conference with three players to earn the award. Hardeman said being named MWC Player of the Week caught him off guard. “It’s good to be getting noticed in the conference, but, right now, we are just worried about getting ready for Air Force,” Hardeman said. “But I have been working hard and getting better every day in practice as well as the team. I just want to get ready for Air Force, and that is all behind us now.”

Tennis

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO

In the last two UNM games against Utah and at Wyoming, Hardeman scored a combined 29 points, nabbed 12 rebounds and had four blocked shots and three steals. Hardeman said his latest success can be attributed to his change of attitude on the court. “I am getting more touches, but I am trying to be more aggressive as well,” Hardeman said. “I am trying to get a lot more rebounds, because that is where we were struggling. We were out-rebounding a lot of teams now but only lost to one on the boards and that was Wyoming.” The Falcons may not stop running the famous offensive scheme — which was introduced to college

basketball in the 1930s — but it seems it didn’t persuade preseason voters. Air Force was picked to finish ninth  last place in the MWC  and started off the 2010 conference season with three straight losses, totaling 19 straight overall in the MWC. Regardless, Alford said, UNM is in for a dogfight. “It doesn’t matter if it’s Air Force, BYU or UNLV,” he said. “It’s not about the front of the jersey we are playing. It’s another game that is on our schedule. We got to play them and we will do that, whether it’s BYU, who is leading our league right now, or Air Force, who is 0-3 in the league right now.”

Lobos will play their first three matches of the season on the road is actually a blessing in disguise. “I’m excited to travel with the team,” she said. “Road games give the team an opportunity to really bond and get to know each other. It’s actually a lot of fun.” And that fun is something UNM

hopes to maintain throughout the season. “We have a positive outlook on the season,” Bonner said. “We just want to improve with every match and keep getting better. If we do that, we’ll be a pretty decent team by the end of the season. We’re all just so excited for the season to begin.”

Iowa’s streak ended by sharp-shooting Shockers by John Marshall Associated Press

WICHITA, Kan. — JT Durley had 19 points, Graham Hatch added 14 and Wichita State knocked off No. 20 Northern Iowa 60-51 Tuesday night to end the nation’s second-longest winning streak at 15 games. Wichita State (17-3, 6-2 Missouri Valley Conference) had a tough shooting night, hitting just 3 of 18 from 3-point range, making up for it with scrappiness and stingy perimeter defense. The Shockers are off to their best start since opening 18-3 in 2004-05 and haven’t lost in 12 games at Charles Koch Arena, including two wins over ranked teams. Northern Iowa (16-2, 7-1) made several runs after a miserable first half at both ends, but came up short after being ranked this week for the second time in school history. Jordan Eglseder had 14 points to lead Northern Iowa, which shot 2 for 13 from 3-point range. Northern Iowa trailed by 12 after a miserable first half at both ends, but didn’t need long to get it all back. After all but ignoring Eglseder in the first half, the Panthers worked the ball into the big senior on three of their first four possessions of the

second to hit five straight shots to score the first eight points. In three minutes, the lead was down to two. The Shockers didn’t score until Gabe Blair dropped in a midrange jumper at 15:15, then used a steal and a fastbreak layup by David Kyles to get themselves and the crowd back into it. Wichita State held Northern Iowa scoreless over its next six possessions to push the lead to seven, then went on another mini run to go up 48-39 on Hatch’s fastbreak layup with just under 4 minutes left. Northern Iowa tried to mount another run, but Wichita State made 13 of 17 free throws to seal it after failing to get to the line in the first half. The Shockers went right at the Missouri Valley’s best defense early, working the ball into the post despite the presence of Eglseder, a mammoth 7-footer. The Shockers didn’t hesitate in taking the ball to the rim and used nifty passing between post players to set up layups and dunks when the Panthers collapsed. Wichita State’s inside success opened up the perimeter and the Shockers hit from there, too, opening the game 10 for 17 from the floor — despite a couple of early jittery airballs — to go up 22-9.
