Legacy of road work still hurts businesses by Nicole Storey
news@dailylobo.com Although construction on Lead and Coal avenues was completed spring of this year, store owners have yet to recover from business losses they experienced during the construction. The city of Albuquerque began the $26 million Lead and Coal Improvement Project in October 2010. The project reduced traffic lanes from three lanes to two on both streets and included a bicycle lane with and wider sidewalks with pedestrian amenities, such as trash bins, lights and new bus stops. The city included a business directory on the project’s website at leadandcoal.com to ensure customers were aware that the businesses were still open, and provided signage to direct customers to the stores. But some businesses, such as Stepp’n-2-Style and Saffron Café, shut down. Shafina Ladha took over the Farmers Market on Lead Avenue after the old owners left two months ago and said sales are still down. She said she depends on the success of her store to support her daughter, who is a student at UNM. “They (the former owners) were only making $200 a day; you can’t survive on that,” Ladha said. Ladha said one of the reasons her business hasn’t improved yet is that

Professors question evaluation methods Teachers not required to hand out IDEA forms by Antonio Sanchez news@dailylobo.com
Although at least two professor evaluation systems are available to students, both students and professors agree that neither is very effective. The student-generated website RateMyProfessor.com offers students personal reviews of university professors and provides students the option to rate their professors on a scale of 0 to 5 in the categories of easiness, helpfulness, clarity and rater interest. UNM has an average professor rating of 3.76, a .42 increase from last year’s score of 3.34. UNM’s Individual Development and Educational Assessment (IDEA) form is a survey distributed to students at the end of every semester to evaluate professors through a series of questions. The questions address professors’ clarity, ability to incorporate “hands-on” projects and methods of inspiring students to set and achieve goals. UNM has distributed the IDEA form since fall of 2008 and spent $60,000 on IDEA forms in FY 2012. The University publishes the

outcomes of the survey for professors to use as constructive criticism for curriculum and teaching practices. Greek mythology professor Monica Cyrino said Rate My Professor doesn’t always reveal an accurate portrayal of a class or a teacher’s work. “I have so many students that, probability-wise, I’d probably end up with a very flattering rating, though I don’t think it’s necessarily a comprehensive view of my class or anyone else’s class,” Cyrino said. Cyrino has consistently received high ratings on the website, with 118 student ratings awarding her a general score of 4.7. Cyrino said she was flattered to have received such a high rating, but she doesn’t personally invest much time in the website. After looking through the site one day, she said she noticed a poor review that complained about the class’s difficult final exam. Cyrino said her class doesn’t have a final exam. Cyrino said this shows why students shouldn’t trust the website as a valid source. While Cyrino doesn’t take the website too seriously, she said that because the website is still used by UNM students, it indicates that students want something more than the administration’s current IDEA evaluation form. She said that the student

taken their business elsewhere. “We offer a free 2-liter Pepsi if you spend over $30 and we are planning on putting an advertisement in the Alibi to attract customers,” Ladha said. “It’s not picking up like it should be, one day will be good and
three days will be bad. People don’t come in here. They go to Smith’s or Walmart instead.” Owner of Free Radicals clothing store Nan Morningstar said she and her husband John decided to hold on to their business through the
construction and hoped business would improve. She said they’ve owned the store for 10 years and that sales are slowly returning to normal as more people realize the area has reopened. “They’re better now, I wouldn’t say they’re back up to where they were 100 percent before the construction, but they’re working their way back up,” she said. “I think it’s just time. I think it’s just people realizing that the construction is actually finished, we’ll have a lot of customers come in and they’re surprised that the road is open, they didn’t know it was over.” Casa de Piñatas owner Francisco Rodriguez said he’s been making piñatas at the store for the past 16 years. He said that although his sales are slowly improving, during the construction he relied almost entirely on existing customers for business. “Business is better,” he said. “Last year it was terrible. There were no people, no traffic … you just walked in off the sidewalk, before there was no sidewalk,” he said. Rodriguez, who had a stroke last year, said he has to work especially hard to not get too worried about the state of his business. He said he isn’t sure if his business will ever return to normal. “I tell people we’ll have to see how the year finishes because we spent so many months in the hole,” he said.
Scribendi gets award nod by Laura Meurer
news@dailylobo.com
A UNM student publication has been nominated for an award that is often considered the Pulitzer prize of student journalism. The UNM honors program student magazine Scribendi was nominated for the National Pacemaker Award, a college-media award for excellence in collegiate magazines, for its 2012 edition. Magazines were judged based on content, quality of writing and education, photography, arts and graphics and judging was based on the layout, design and overall concept or theme. Scribendi was nominated for various works, such as the digital photograph Nature’s Hourglass, which received awards from the Western Regional Honors Council (WRHC), a professional organization of faculty, administration and students dedicated to promoting undergraduate honors education. The magazine previously won the award for its 2006 edition. Scribendi was selected by Graywolf Press, a publishing company, as one of seven finalists in the four-year college literary magazine category. Scribendi, whose name means “those which must be written,” began in 1987 as a small magazine called the UNM Honors Review, but now accepts submissions from more than 220 undergraduate students from schools in the WRHC. Current Scribendi editor-in-chief Austin Evans said staff members create a new magazine every year and that the publication provides students with learning and work opportunities and a place to make friends. Although students apply for a position on the magazine staff and work as much as 10 hours per week, they also receive three credit hours per semester and learn graphic design, management and communications skills. Evans said each submission is paired with precise

Scribendi book cover design to maintain the integrity of the submission. He said that the nomination reflects the dedication and effort put into making the magazine, and that the award will be announced at the beginning of November at the National College Media Convention in Chicago. “We are honored and humbled to have received recognition from such a prestigious institution,” he said. “Scribendi never leaves you. We are like a family.” Faculty adviser Amaris Ketcham said the magazine is well-rounded and that winning the award would show the versatility in what the University can

Rounded rocks point to past Martian water by Alicia Chang
The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The NASA rover Curiosity has beamed back pictures of bedrock that suggest a fast-moving stream, possibly waist-deep, once flowed on Mars — a find that the mission’s chief scientist called exciting. There have been previous signs that water existed on the red planet long ago, but the images released Thursday showing pebbles rounded off, likely by water, offered the most convincing evidence so far of an ancient streambed. There was “a vigorous flow on the surface of Mars,” said chief scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology. “We’re really excited about this.” The discovery did not come as a complete surprise. NASA decided to plunk Curiosity down inside Gale Crater near the Martian equator because photos from space hinted that the spot possessed a watery past. The six-wheeled

certainly a lot of resources that are available to help them make the most of that data,” Smith said. “We’re encouraging faculty to look at what their students are telling them, identify places where they might improve, and might be able to make their intentions from what they’re trying to do in their classes.” According to the UNM faculty handbook, faculty members are not required to use the IDEA forms, although they are required to submit some type of teaching evaluation for their annual review and tenurereview process. The book doesn’t specify how the evaluation should be implemented. Academic Technology Liaison Stephen Burd said faculty members can use other evaluation forms, whether self-constructed or preestablished. He said he once used a form different from the IDEA forms for his position as a professor in the
Anderson School of Management. While his department chair preferred that he use the IDEA forms, Burd said that because the faculty handbook was silent on which system was required, he used his form regardless. “You’re going to get a lot of variation across campus — if you’re looking for actual, consistent policy enforced at the university level, there is none,” Burd said. “There is a requirement that faculty provide evidence of their teaching performance, there is an expectation that includes feedback from students, but there isn’t a requirement in the faculty handbook that says that has to come from IDEA.” Also not defined is how faculty members and administration weigh each evaluation form. While the IDEA forms will maintain some weight in terms of whether a professor will receive some sort of promotion, tenure or be dismissed, Burd said there’s no
CLARIFICATION The article “2012 Election Voter Guide,” published in Wednesday’s Daily Lobo, reported Independent American Party candidate for the U.S. Senate Jon Ross Barrie’s stance on immigration as “allowing undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as minors to pursue citizenship without returning to their country of origin, and not requiring immigrants to return to their country of origin before they are eligible for citizenship.” This characterization was based on information from VoteSmart.org. Barrie would like to clarify that he supports neither the DREAM Act nor “blanket amnesty” for undocumented immigrants. According to his website, JonBarrieforSenate.com, Barrie says, “Our borders must be secured just as other countries have by enforcing current immigration laws.”

participation on websites like RMP show that students want to have a more pertinent role in critiquing professors and having access to criticism. “The current system is the worst written evaluation system I’ve seen in my past 23 years,” she said. “It’s got like 8,000 questions to it, they don’t pertain to the actual class that’s being evaluated, it has all these really meaningless markers. It’s ridiculously long and students don’t want to do them.” Director of the Office of the Support for Effective Teaching Gary Smith works alongside professors and faculty members who have questions or concerns about the program. He said professors who don’t take the IDEA evaluation forms seriously are missing out on an opportunity for self-improvement. “If a faculty chooses not to use that information, I think that’s unfortunate because there are

rover safely landed Aug. 5 after a nail-biting plunge through the Martian atmosphere. It’s on a twoyear, $2.5 billion mission to study whether the Martian environment could have been favorable for microbial life. Present day Mars is a frozen desert with no hint of water on its radiation-scarred surface, but geological studies of rocks by previous missions suggest the planet was warmer and wetter once upon a time. The latest evidence came from photos that Curiosity took revealing rounded pebbles and gravel — a sign that the rocks were transported long distances by water and smoothed out. The size of the rocks — ranging from a sand grain to a golf ball — indicates that they could not have been carried by wind, said mission scientist Rebecca Williams of the Planetary Science Institute in Tucson, Ariz.

concrete decision as to how much weight the evaluation forms hold. “Some department shares tend to look more at the comments than the numbers, if the comments are predominantly positive or there are a lot of positive comments, they may take that with greater rate than the numbers,” he said. “Other chairs look at the numbers and not the comments.” Burd said members of the administration, including the provost’s office, continue to discuss whether the University wants to keep the IDEA form system. He said the administration is unsure if IDEA is the best system to use for professor evaluations. “The use of IDEA forms and whether they’re going to continue or whether they’re going to be replaced with some other system, that’s something we’re going to look at this year,” he said. “I don’t know how quickly a decision will be made on that, but it’s part of a discussion.”

Organic chemistry professor Don Bellew said professors should look into Rate My Professor and that it provides a more honest outlook than the IDEA form. “Students aren’t forced to go on this website, they go on their own volition, so either they’re going there because they had a really good experience or a bad experience,” he said. “I think that might be a little more honest. I think some students just fill in bubbles to get out of this with these IDEA forms.” Bellew has an average score of 4.5, with a total of 135 student reviews accounting for his score. He said he thinks his high score is due to his work ethic in the classroom. “I think it’s because I try to do a good job; if you try, students can see that,” he said. “If you don’t try, if you brush students off, they see that and it will be reflected in the IDEA forms and on these reviews.”

Program sparks civic service Initiative a boost for community learning class by Barbara Gomez-Aguinaga
news@dailylobo.com An agreement will aid education designed to improve students’ understanding of national issues, such as poverty and immigration policies, through community service. A memorandum, signed by directors of El Centro de la Raza, the Southwest Hispanic Research Institute and the Chicano Hispano Mexicano Studies Program, created the Community Based Research and Learning Initiative, a project dedicated to improving educational opportunitiesforLatinoStudents.The agreement will provide additional instruction and community service opportunities for students who enroll in “Community Based Learning in Chicana-o Hispana-o Communities,” which requires at least 31 hours of research, service learning, and community engagement. Although the class is closed for this semester, it is available every fall and spring semester. The Memorandum of Understanding was signed Sept. 20, accompanied by live mariachis.
Scribendi
But Chicano Hispano Mexicano Studies Program Director Irene Vasquez said that all UNM students can participate in the project. “Latinos are a majority (of the initiative),” Vasquez said. “But it is definitively opened to everyone.” Vasquez said that under the memorandum, the organizations will provide students with the necessary tools to better understand how to help their community, such as additional advisement and classes that focus on economic and social issues that impact local and foreign communities, such as poverty, undocumented immigration and education. She said students will learn to apply the material discussed in class to the real world, which will allow them to closely engage with their community. “We will offer an innovative learning environment that prepares our students for the 21st century and that is responsive to local and national social issues and challenges,” Vasquez said. “The community-based learning prepares students to be civically engaged members of their community and well-rounded professionals working to create a better U.S. society.” Francisco Uviña-Contreras, who teaches the class and has worked on community projects for the past 15
years, said the class offers students the opportunity to engage in different projects depending on their interests. He said the course requires students to work with nonprofit organizations, such as Peanut Butter & Jelly Family Services, which supports childhood well-being, and El Centro de Igualdad y Derechos, an organization that promotes Latino immigrant rights. One project, led by UNM student Juan Gonzalez, will provide an art class for undocumented students at El Centro de Igualdad y Derechos, and another, which includes a group of seven students from El Centro de la Raza, will research the Atrisco area of the South Valley to address issues common in the area, including afterschool programs and homelessness. Uviña-Contreras said he enjoys teaching the class because it allows him to mentor students and help them better understand how to become a more prominent part of their community. He said the class helps students who want to better connect with the community. “My position is more like pushing students to the right direction instead of telling them what to do,” he said. “I set tools and advise them, but they are the ones who actually work in their own projects.”

Why not warn us when parking laws change? Editor, I am frustrated by the permit parking surrounding the University for two reasons. First, I think it is questionable that we all pay for public roads through our taxes, but some people get special access to those roads through the permit process, while others are excluded. Second, in my experience, there is no reasonable way to pay a parking citation. Most people are attracted to University neighborhoods because of the benefits they provide, such as convenience, shopping, entertainment and greater home values. However, like many things in life, there are trade-offs, and in this case living near the University dictates higher concentrations of people and greater traffic congestion. Thus, it seems unfair the city provides these residents special parking privileges and denies them to the rest of us while forcing all of us to pay not only for those roads and sidewalks, but the ticketing of them as well. In addition to this misuse of our tax dollars and the preference it shows to a small subset of Albuquerque’s tax base, is the issue that there is no reasonable way to pay a parking citation. To better illustrate my point, I’d like to recount my personal experience that began with a parking citation on Wednesday. I am a UNM employee who parks once a week in a neighborhood near north campus. Parking in that same spot for more than a year has made it a habit for me, and the thought of checking to see if there is a new sign up the block didn’t occur to me. Thus, I thought it was a mistake when I found a parking ticket on my car. To address this, I called the officer, who informed me the area had become permit-parking only three weeks prior to my ticket. I decided that paying the $20 would be easier than taking part of a day off from work to go to court and suggest that helping a citizen to know the rules before punishing them for breaking them might be an appropriate action. However, when I attempted to pay my ticket the next morning, I learned that citations must be paid within five days (including weekends) or they double, and that the only means of paying a citation are in person or by mail. This means that the $20 ticket I received Wednesday afternoon becomes a $40 ticket if it is not in the hands of the parking authority by Monday, which eliminates mailing the fine and leaves me with the option of either paying twice the citation value or taking part of a day off to go to court and pay the fine. This whole scenario seems backwards. First, all taxpayers must subsidize the parking desires of a few people who live in one of the best and most expensive parts of the city. Then, we have to pay for the policing of those policies. Next, we have parking officers who don’t show the courtesy of providing a warning in the case of a new policy change. And finally, there is a timeline that is unrealistic and forces working individuals to take off work to pay a fine. Jarrett Hines-Kay UNM staff member

Dr. Peg’s Prescription Antibiotics can pack as big of a punch as the bacteria themselves Q: I just finished a two-week course of antibiotics, taking them twice a day. They wrecked my whole body, making me nauseated, giving me an upset stomach and reflux, changing my stools, and even some weirder side effects like pins-and-needles sensations on my hands and face! What can I do now to help my body get back to normalcy, and do you have tips to make any future treatment I might have to take less awful? A: I’m sorry you had such a bad time. Antibiotics are a mixed blessing for sure. Without them, we’d be stuck back in the 19th century, dying of sore throats and infected hangnails. The discovery and development of drugs that can kill bacteria has saved countless lives. Pure power in a pill. But nothing comes without a price: As you experienced, drugs can have side effects, and all drugs have risks. Antibiotics have some unique ones. Here are my suggestions to you for future reference. First, make sure you really need antibiotics before you take them. Don’t pressure your doctor for antibiotics if she is advising against them. Millions of doses of antibiotics are prescribed inappropriately every year. This is usually in the context of respiratory infections like bronchitis or sinusitis. These infections are caused by viruses almost all the time. Antibiotics kill bacteria, not viruses, yet people with virus infections get prescribed antibiotics over and over again. In
Write-ins deserve mention in Daily Lobo’s coverage Editor’s note: This letter is in response to the “2012 Election Voter Guide,” published in Wednesday’s Daily Lobo, part one of a weekly series of election coverage. This installment covered New Mexico’s candidates for the U.S. Senate and New Mexico District 1 of the U.S. House of Representatives. To clarify, the piece on Wednesday covered candidates who are on the ballot. Bob Anderson and Jeanne Pahls, who were featured in the Sept. 17 photo column “Congressional Couple,” will be covered separately.
my opinion, doctors and patients share responsibility for this unfortunate pattern. Second, while you are taking antibiotics, follow the directions carefully. Some of them sit better if you take them with food. Some require a full glass of liquid to make sure they get all the way through the esophagus. Some need to be taken on an empty stomach, or at a distance from certain foods. Read the information that comes with the medicine. If you have questions, ask your pharmacist, and make sure you take the entire course. You should never have leftover antibiotics in your medicine cabinet. If you don’t take the whole course, germs can develop resistance which can lead to a worse infection requiring even stronger drugs. Antibiotics kill bacteria, as I said. But not all bacteria are bad. In fact, we live with several trillion of them on us and inside us all the time. Believe it or not, there are more cells living on us and in us in the form of microbes than we have composing our actual bodies. Now, before you run screaming to the shower to scrub yourself inside and out, understand that we need those guys. They are called normal flora and our relationship with them is mutually beneficial. They get from us a steady supply of nutrients, a stable environment, protection and transport. We get from them certain nutritional and digestive benefits, stimulation of the immune system and protection against colonization and infection by dangerous microbes.

Editor, How lovely that the Daily Lobo quotes Thomas Jefferson on informing the public in their 2012 Election Voter Guide. Too bad they go on to ignore him by not including the official write-in candidates, Bob Anderson for U.S. Senate and Jeanne Pahls for U.S. House, District 1. It should be no secret to any media in Albuquerque that we the people have the choice of write-in candidates this election, as they have to register with the Bernalillo County Clerk’s office, and Anderson and Pahls are listed online on The League of Women Voters 2012 Election Guide. KOB, KRQE, KOAT and KUNM, all sponsors of local candidate debates, are ignoring their mandate of licensure, free speech and informing the public they supposedly serve by
The problem is that antibiotics are indiscriminate killers — they get the bad bugs, but they also get the good bugs. Without the good bugs in our guts our digestion isn’t as smooth. Result? Diarrhea, stomach cramps, indigestion. In severe cases, we can end up with a dangerous infection with a hardy bacterium called Clostridium difficile. To help prevent the killing off of all the good bacteria, boost your system with healthy bacteria while you’re on antibiotics, and especially after you finish them. You can do this by eating yogurt and/or taking probiotics. If you eat yogurt, make sure it has active cultures in it. Probiotics are usually in the form of capsules that contain beneficial bacteria. They come in many varieties. You can get them at the SHAC pharmacy or at a health food store. Sometimes it seems the cure is worse than the disease, doesn’t it? If it is any consolation, remember that having a few uncomfortable side effects beats dying from an infection, like in the old days. And as you recover from the disease and the cure, don’t forget the basics of body care to help get you back on your healthy feet. Eat good foods like fresh vegetables and fruit, stay physically active and get plenty of sleep. Peggy Spencer is a student-health physician.

deliberately not including Anderson and Pahls in their broadcast debates. Stuart Dyson of KOB explained, via email, that KOB chooses to only include candidates on the written ballot. Of course it would be naive to think that KOB, an NBC affiliate whose parent company is General Electric, arguably the largest military contractor in the United States, gives a damn about presenting a view to the electorate that isn’t in goose step with either of the two corporate U.S. Senate candidates and their records in blind service of the war machine. It’s disappointing to see that a student newspaper, at a supposed institution of higher learning, is now in competition with local “professional” media in supplying disinformation to the public.

Rushing may be key vs. BSU by Thomas Romero-Salas sports@dailylobo.com
The Lobo football team looks to rip another monkey off its back when it takes on No. 24 Boise State in both teams’ MWC opener on Saturday. Last weekend, New Mexico snapped a 24 road-game losing streak with a 27-14 victory at in-state rival NMSU. UNM head football coach Bob Davie said the win over the Aggies was an important stepping stone for the team. “There’s nothing like winning, and to get it going you have to win,” he said. Now the Lobos turn their attention to a losing streak against ranked opponents. UNM hasn’t defeated a ranked foe since 2003, when the Lobos defeated No. 23 Utah 47-35 in Salt Lake City. The Broncos don’t lose often, with three losses in the last three years. Davie said the Broncos (2-1) have been a pillar of success since head coach Chris Peterson made his way to Idaho. “You really appreciate the Boise States of the world for what they’ve done,” Davie said. “You get a little bit of a misconception of Boise; you kind of associate them with the trick play, the smartest kid in the class. They have all that. But what they are is they are tough, and they are well-coached. My hat goes off to what they have done there.” The statistics support Davie:
Since 2006, when Peterson became head coach of Boise State, the Broncos have gone 75-7 and have been the highest scoring team in the nation since 2000, with a 41.3 average. But these aren’t the same Broncos who beat down Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo UNM 45-0 in last Senior cornerback Destry Berry (11) and redshirt freshman safety season’s finale at Bronco Stadium.

Foe’s got ‘nothing to lose’ by Christian Naranjo sports@dailylobo.com
The UNM men’s soccer team will begin its final year of conference play as a member of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation this Saturday. New Mexico (7-1-0) will match up against new conference member Houston Baptist (2-4-0) in Houston at 6 p.m. UNM is ranked No. 4 in the NSCAA Coaches poll and No. 3 in the College Soccer News poll. Last season, the Lobos went 10-0 in conference play in the regular season. But head coach Jeremy Fishbein said the first away game since Sept. 2 will test New Mexico. “It’s big; we want to get off conference play to a good start,” he said. “You can’t take anybody lightly. It’s a huge opportunity for Houston Baptist, so we’re going to see their best. We have to win the individual battles and play collectively as a team. It’s a great challenge for us.” Senior goalie Victor Rodriguez said he believes the team has to be vigilant when playing the Huskies, despite their record. “Any time you go against a team that doesn’t have the best record, it’s always an opportunity for them to turn their season around,” Rodriguez said. “It’s dangerous playing those teams because they have nothing to lose at the end of the day.” Fishbein said he wants the team to focus more and he expects that to happen at Saturday’s match. “We have to be better,” Fishbein
said. “We have to play fully, no matter who our opponent or their style of play. We have to play our style and not adapt to their play. We just have to put our stamp on the map early.” In last weekend’s Lobo Invitational, senior forward Devon Sandoval had three goals in two games and won Offensive MVP honors. Rodriguez tossed shutouts in both games and clinched the Defensive MVP award. Sandoval also won MPSF player of the week and entered the Top Drawer National Team of the Week for his performance the last two games. The scoring forward also averages 0.88 goals per game, which is No. 8 in the nation. Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo Sandoval said he gives credit to his teammates for UNM sophomore James Rogers shoots on goal, while putting him in a position to win Northern Illinois freshman Charlie Oliver watches. the awards and recognition he The Lobos went on to win the home game 3-0 and has garnered this season. will play at Houston Baptist on Saturday. “I feel good and confident. It just comes from everybody, said. “Those games just give us that though. It comes from everyone work- confidence going into conference ing hard,” he said, “I wouldn’t be able play now.” to get any of those goals if it weren’t Fishbein said he considers the for my teammates.

Rodriguez has 0.66 goals against “We want to be focused and sharp average, which is No. 25 in the nation. for 90 minutes. That’s our approach,” He said the shutouts in the previous Fishbein said. “Every game we want two matches were important heading to get better in certain areas, get more into MPSF play. cohesive as a unit, and be excited to “Every game I go into the game play against someone else. I think wanting to get a shutout,” Rodriguez we’re in a real good place right now.”

UNM head women’s soccer coach Kit Vela said. “Leading up to conference we wanted to get better and better, and start popping and moving by the time we got there.” The UNM Soccer Complex will host Stuff the Stadium Night for the Lobo women’s third home contest. General admission tickets are free for students and $2 for nonstudents. In addition to an early advantage in conference play, a win will give Vela a career milestone: her 100th coaching victory. “What will it mean? It means that we’re 1-0 in conference,” Vela said with a laugh. “I think we’ve come a long way in 12 years. Looking back 11 years, when we took over this program, we had great vision. We didn’t know how fast we could accomplish it.” UNM brings two streaks into today’s contest. The Lobos have not lost a conference game since October 2009, going 10-0-4 during that period. They also have a 10match unbeaten home streak — eight wins and two ties. The latter feat is a school-tying record. Vela said she isn’t focused on either those streaks. “We just play game by game,” she said. “Soccer’s a cruel sport. You really can’t guarantee anything … We’re proving at a very high level right now that if you work hard and outwork your opponents, you can make your own
luck. The girls buy into that.” In 2012, UNM has scored 15 goals while giving up 11. Senior midfielder Rachel Montoya leads the scoring with four goals, and junior defender Liz Nare has a team-high three assists. Senior goalie Kelli Cornell has four shutouts and has surrendered 0.97 goals per game. Boise State comes to Albuquerque with a 5-6-1 mark following a 1-0 win over the University of Pennsylvania. The Broncos have scored 16 goals and allowed 20. Sophomore midfielder Shannon Schueren has five goals and two assists so far for Boise State. Her assist total is tied with Boise State senior midfielder Lauren Hickok and senior defender Mandy Nader. In net, sophomore keeper Maddy McDevitt has given up 1.59 goals and recorded three shutouts. Vela said Boise State features the same kind of dynamic play UNM has seen earlier in the season. “I’m sure they’re feeling the same way, ready for conference,” she said. “I think Friday night is going to be a very enthusiastic, exciting game against a conference opponent.”
