Vanessa Sanchez / Daily Lobo Banner carriers walk in front of the Olive Tree Messianic Temple Saturday to celebrate Sukkot, a Jewish feast day. This is the fifth annual celebration at Olive Tree of the Feast of Tabernacles, which commemorates the Jewish pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
Sukkot makes joyful noise by Adam R. Burnett Daily Lobo
Hands clapping, voices raised in song, bongos pounding, guitars strumming open chords, tambourines shaking wildly — this was the opening scene of the Feast of Tabernacles at Olive Tree Messianic Temple on Saturday night. The Feast of Tabernacles, known as Sukkot in Hebrew, is a celebration that recognizes the 40 years the ancient Israelites spent living in the desert, according to the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America Web site (www.mjaa.org). The name “sukkot” is derived from the Hebrew word “sukkah,” which means booth or hut. The feast, usually held on the 15th day of September or October, commemorates the pilgrimage made by Jews to the temple of Jerusalem. This is the fifth year the festival has been held in Albuquerque. Scott Aaron, a member of Olive Tree Messianic Temple, brought his
wife and children to this year’s festival. He said Sukkot festivals are increasingly rare. “It’s an old Hebrew tradition, and this might be one of the last Sukkot festivals in the state,” he said. Denis Otero, rabbi of Olive Tree, said the festival is significant to the Jewish community. “It is a celebration of temporary shelter,” he said. “It’s a way to reconnect with the Messianic community. This festival in Israel would have been the equivalent to, like, the balloon fiesta or State Fair in Albuquerque. We’re trying to bring back that same festivity of community here.” On Saturday, a procession of men clad in white shirts and black slacks circled the central festival tent a dozen times with banners representing the 12 tribes of Israel. Messianic Judaism draws from both mainstream Christianity and Judaism and shares many customs, traditions and beliefs from both religions, according to the
Messianic Jewish Alliance of America Web site. Although they observe Jewish law and holidays, Messianic Jews believe that Jesus, or Yeshua, is the resurrected Messiah. Rabbi Otero’s mission with the festival is directly tied to this notion. “This festival is really about celebrating the birth of Yeshua,” Otero said. “I want to bring back to the community a reminder that the Messiah was born at the Feast of Tabernacles, not Dec. 25, which most of us already know.” As the festival continued through the night, there was dancing, traditional music, intermittent homilies and testaments from Olive Tree members, and the sharing of space and community. Aaron said the feast is meant to bring unity to the Messianic Jewish community. “The Feast of Tabernacles is like a harvest festival,” Aaron said. “Everyone comes together and we celebrate together.”
Once again, Richard Nixon is not a crook — only an alleged assailant. Student Chris Hannemann said that a little after 2:15 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1, he took a break from his work at Parish Library and was accosted by a man wearing dark clothes, brandishing a knife and wearing a Nixon mask, according to a UNMPD police report. In the report, the alleged assailant thrust the knife at Hannemann, and the fourth-year senior then caught the assailant’s arm and elbowed him in the temple. Hannemann told police the next think he remembered was lying on the ground next to the knife, and the assailant was nowhere to be seen. Hannemann was not robbed of his wallet or any other valuables. Hannemann was not available for comment. UNMPD spokesman Robert Haarhues said October typically
If you have information about this crime, contact UNMPD at 277-2241 brings out more masked criminals, but this is the first time he knows of such an incident on campus. “We’ve had different crimes within the city where the perpetrators wore Halloween masks in the past,” Haarhues said. “It’s pretty common around Halloween.” Haarhues said no arrests have been made for the assault, and several details need to be ironed out in Hannemann’s description. “There are some inconsistencies in the report that need to be explained or investigated,” he said. Haarhues said Hannemann waited more than three hours to report the incident. There were no signs of a confrontation on Hannemann’s clothing or person, according to the report. Hannemann complained of knee pain and was transported to Lovelace Hospital for care.

Gerald takes steps toward resignation in fight aftermath by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo
It looks like wide receivers coach Jonathan “J.B.” Gerald is on his way out of UNM. Athletics Director Paul Krebs confirmed Sunday that Gerald turned in his Universityissued cell phone and car keys on Friday. Gerald has been on paid administrative leave since he filed a police report on the evening of Sept. 20 alleging that Lobo football coach Mike Locksley approached him in an “aggressive manner” after a “heated” exchange during an offensive staff meeting. Locksley said he wasn’t aware that Gerald had turned in his keys and said that he hasn’t had a conversation with Gerald since the

first-year head coach last apologized to him in person. Initially, the only punishment levied against Locksley was a verbal reprimand and a written letter placed in his personnel file. But at Krebs’ request — and after a public outcry — the University Human Resources department launched an investigation into the altercation. Krebs said the University has extended open arms to Gerald, and the wide receivers coach was welcome to rejoin the team whenever he was ready. But Gerald has been mum since the incident occurred, and he didn’t return e-mails over the weekend. Krebs said he wasn’t at liberty to speculate
on whether Gerald has resigned. “He’s on paid administrative leave,” Krebs said. In Gerald’s absence, graduate assistant Aaron Moorehead has assumed some of the responsibilities associated with coaching the wide receivers, and Locksley has played a more active, hands-on role as well. Locksley said his Sept. 20 actions were uncalled-for, and that he hoped the fallout wouldn’t affect his friendship with Gerald or his coaching status with the University — but ultimately the decision resided with Gerald. “I can’t speak for him,” he said during a Sept. 29 media luncheon. “He has to decide what he’s willing to work through and whether he’s willing to forgive. Part of the consequence (is),

I didn’t just lose a good coach. I lost a friend — possibly. But that’s part of the consequences of the choice or decision I made. All you can ask is for forgiveness — and I’ve done that part.” Locksley has been cleared of wrongdoing on another front: The EEOC ruled the sexual harassment allegations against Locksley filed in May by a former administrative assistant are “unfounded,” KRQE reported on Friday. Krebs said he hadn’t heard about the report. “The EEOC complaint is about to be resolved,” he said. “I wasn’t in the office on Friday, but we expected that to be resolved and something to be forthcoming soon.” Locksley declined to comment on the ruling.

CHRIS WILSON
&
Chris Wilson, chairman of cultural landscape studies at UNM, is the closing speaker at “Through the Lens,” an exhibit at the New Mexico History Museum in Santa Fe. Wilson will speak Oct. 23 at 6 p.m. in the museum’s auditorium. At the event, which is free to the public, Wilson will discuss the museum’s photo collections and Santa Fe’s regional identity.
E S T I O N
Daily Lobo: What is the exhibit “Through the Lens” about? Chris Wilson: This is an exhibit that has been up at the Palace of the Governors History Museum in Santa Fe for a year now, and it is a major retrospective show about photography in and around Santa Fe. … And the museum itself has a major photo archive, one of the best in the country and certainly one of the best state archives. This is a sampling of their photo collections, which expands to possibly more than 500,000 photos. And it’s letting people see the range
of photos that they have collected. It shows the growth of Santa Fe as a tourist region and its transformation through the years.
DL: What will your concluding talk consist of? CW: The title of my talk is, “The Exalting Eye: Photography and the Myth of Santa Fe,” and it’s playing off a book that I wrote and published about 10 years ago called The Myth of Santa Fe: Creating a Modern Regional Tradition, and that book is about how Santa Fe reinvented itself in 1912 as the regional center of arts and culture as we know it today and the role photography played in its reinvention … When the railroad bypassed Santa Fe, there was a serious economic decline, and as New Mexico was campaigning for statehood, a portion of the city Americanized itself in order to appeal to the East Coast by conforming itself to the building styles present elsewhere — not in the regional Spanish-Pueblo style. The city had its official image,
CHAIRMAN, CULTURAL LANDSCAPE STUDIES and then there were photographers that were catering to the tourist industry, and they were showing the Old World New Mexico style. Once statehood was granted, the region felt like they had lost their identity and wished to go back to the style that they were accustomed to. I will also be talking about the way that photography is pivotal by first developing the split identity, then resolving it to the romantic images we see today. DL: How has the image of Santa Fe and New Mexico changed throughout the years since the reinvention? CW: Once it was formulated, it stayed pretty consistent — the mission churches, the Spanish houses and the desert landscape — and occasionally we do see something added — the pitched metal roofs, the stucco houses — which have only recently entered the tourist imagery.
tourist views? CW: There are artists that are not catering to the tourist imagery market, but instead they are commenting on it and they are questioning it, and oftentimes they use the tourist images but they tweak them, using a tongue-in-cheek method or twisting them entirely. Or in some cases, they are including and drawing attention to some of the aspects of New Mexican culture that are sometimes overlooked. The tourist image emphasizes the Pueblo culture much more than the contemporary Hispanic culture; they look at conquistadorian ideals, but they don’t focus on the lowriders and the cholos present today. These artists are respectfully portraying them. For instance, some have them look to the camera instead of the Pueblo ideal of having them look away to the distance, and by having them look to the camera it is not romanticized — it’s much more realistic.

Gay activists march to remind Obama of vows by Brett Zongker
The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Thousands of gay-rights supporters marched Sunday from the White House to the Capitol, demanding that President Obama keep his promises to allow gays to serve openly in the military and work to end discrimination against gays.

Indigenous Day attacks Columbus ‘myth’ Staff Report Daily Lobo
A group of UNM students would like to see Columbus Day traded for Indigenous Day. Native American Studies Indigenous Research Group will celebrate Indigenous Day for the sixth year today, member Dina Gillio said. She said the celebration of Indigenous Day is important to many different cultures. As a result, NASIRG is circulating a petition calling for UNM to recognize Indigenous Day instead of Columbus day every Oct. 12. Gillio said NASIRG hosts Indigenous Day activities to educate students about how Christopher Columbus and Western expansion have impacted indigenous cultures. “It happened about six years ago, when the students from the Native American studies department just got sick of hearing about Columbus Day,” Gillio said. “Knowing about the history and how mythological it is to celebrate Columbus Day is just important to
Native Americans — especially at the University.” Gillio said some highlights of Indigenous Day include a film screening in the SUB theater and the “Rock Your Mocs” event in SUB ballroom C. She said “Rock Your Mocs” is an opportunity for participants to talk, listen to music and speak on an open microphone. Gillio said the movie being shown in the SUB, “Noho Hewa: The Wrongful Occupation of Hawai’i”, is a documentary made by a native Hawaiian, Keala Kelly. She said Kelly has traveled from Hawaii to UNM to show her film and have a discussion afterward with students. “This year we are bringing out a native Hawaiian activist and filmmaker who made this film about the Hawaiian sovereignty movement,” Gillio said. “It’s a documentary, so it’s a really big deal, because we’re bringing her all the way from Hawaii.” Lani Tsinnijinnie, NASIRG member, said the group wants all UNM students to participate in Indigenous Day events.
“We’re encouraging everyone to participate,” Tsinnijinnie said. “It’s not just a day for native people — it’s a day for everyone. It’s about bringing people together instead of being divisive.” Tsinnijinnie said one of her favorite parts of Indigenous Day in the past was the “Rock Your Mocs” event, because of the fun and informative environment. “I think every year my favorite part of the day is when we get to go to the Student Union atrium and have speeches and express our feelings about the day,” she said. “It’s also a way of sharing our issues and our cultures with the other students at UNM.” Tsinnijinnie said Indigenous Day is a good way to meet new people and learn about their cultures. “UNM is such a diverse community,” she said. “There are a lot of different cultures represented on campus, but I don’t know how many students actually get to learn about them. It’s a great environment to be open-minded and learn about different experiences that people have.”
right way, which is to get a buy-in from the military, which I think is now possible,” said Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich. Obama’s political energies have been focused on two wars, the economic crisis and health care reform, though he pledged “unwavering” commitment even as he wrestled with those problems. March organizer Cleve Jones, creator of the AIDS Memorial Quilt and a protege of gay rights pioneer Harvey Milk, said he had initially discouraged a rally earlier in the year. But he and others began to worry Obama was backing away from his campaign promises. “Since we’ve seen that so many times before, I didn’t want it to happen again,” he said. “We’re not settling. There’s no such thing as a fraction of equality.” Unlike the first march in 1979
and others in 1987, 1993 and 2000 that included celebrity performances and drew as many as 500,000 people, Sunday’s event was driven by grassroots efforts and was expected to be more low-key. Washington authorities don’t disclose crowd estimates at rallies, though at least several thousand appeared to be in attendance. Also among the crowd were a couple of noteworthy activists: Cynthia Nixon, a cast member from HBO’s “Sex and the City,” who hopes to marry partner Christine Marinoni next year; and Judy Shepard, who became an advocate for gay rights after her son Matthew was killed because he was gay. Many marchers were outraged after the passage of California’s Proposition 8, which canceled the right of gays to get married in the state.
Rights from page 2 2-year-old son, Isiah, in a stroller. Yanowitz said more straight people were turning out to show their support for gay rights. “If somebody doesn’t have equal rights, then none of us are free,” he said. “For all I know, she’s gay or he’s gay,” he added, pointing to his children. Some participants in the National Equality March woke up energized by Obama’s blunt pledge to end the ban on gays serving openly in the military during a speech to the nation’s largest gay-rights group Saturday night. The chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said Sunday that Congress will need to muster the resolve to change the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy — a change that the military may be ready for. “I think it has to be done in the

LETTER
Richard Berry should change his race-baiting rhetoric Editor, I would first like to extend my congratulations to Mayor-elect Richard Berry on his recent victory. However, I must add that I was quite disturbed by some of his campaign rhetoric against immigrants living in Albuquerque. Berry scored political points with scared white voters by claiming that former Mayor Martin Chávez had turned Albuquerque into a “sanctuary city” for illegal immigrants. This kind of talk is nothing more than good old-fashioned white supremacy, which will only polarize the racial communities. Not only is this kind of talk irresponsible, but it sets the stage for a possible racial conflict in the future. If the history of our country has taught us anything, it is that once the racial powder keg is lit, then it is only a matter of time before it explodes into communal violence. I hope to God for the mayor’s sake and for everyone else in this city who wants peace that Berry does not make the mistake of lighting that powder keg. Muhajir Salam UNM student

Are such images a useful tool to change people’s minds about abortion? Yes. This is the best way to spark conversation about an issue people don’t 9% like to discuss. Yes. The photos allow students to fully comprehend the fetal development of a child and show that abortion is 17% inhumane.

THIS WEEK’S POLL: Why do we sing “Take me out to the ball game” when we’re already there? It’s just a little reminder of where you are in case you have too many beers or get hit in the head with a baseball. We have an insatiable thirst for America’s favorite pastime and our desires manifest themselves in song. Redundancy moves in mysterious ways. I don’t sing along. I’m already there.

LETTERS Daily Lobo carelessly gives voice to anti-Israel groups Editor, Once again the Daily Lobo falls into the trap of promoting anti-Israeli propaganda. Last week, two front-page articles covered a talk given by former Israel Defense Forces soldier Micha Kurz. This event was sponsored by the Coalition to Stop $30 Billion to Israel and the Student Coalition for Peace and Justice in the Middle East. The extensive coverage of this event raises two disturbing questions regarding the professional and ethical standards of the University’s paper. Every week UNM hosts various events, from lectures given by guest professors or politicians to professional events for students. It is hard to learn about these events from the paper and usually an informative friend or an e-mail is needed, and a recent example is the almost-ignored visit of the former Mexican president on campus.
Funds spent on athletics could be better spent on academics Editor, The TV ads featuring Lobo Louie and his Lobo floozy accurately convey the tackiness of the partnership between the University of New Mexico Athletics Department and the Route 66 Casino Hotel.

It is beyond my grasp why Micah Kurz, an American Israeli who resides in New Mexico, who was a small cog in the machine and fulfilled his obligations like every other Israeli, receives such publicity in the Daily Lobo. What makes his opinions more meaningful or interesting than the average Israeli’s? But even worse, the Daily Lobo gives legitimacy and a stage to those groups that adorn their titles with extravagant terms such as justice, peace, humanitarianism etc. In reality, these groups are engaged in illegal activities, the spreading of fraudulent propaganda, and dangerous incitement. For example, the title, the Coalition to Stop $30 Billion to Israel, referring to the American financial aid to Israel, is fraudulent. Regardless of the fact that the Arab countries receive higher financial aid than Israel, less than $3 billion are loaned to Israel yearly, and most of the loaned money goes for the purchasing of American-made weapons. This anti-Semitic organization also stands behind the holocaust-denying ad that was published in the Daily Lobo. Another example is Micah Kurz’s group — that its “humanitarian” assistance includes bailing out Arab criminals, smuggling people across the border, and wild incitement
against Israel around the globe. It is unfortunate that the Daily Lobo does not investigate more deeply before granting huge publicity and an absolute legitimacy to racist, anarchist and violent organizations. Micha Kurz could have easily refused to take part in military actions that he viewed as crimes, as some wrongly but at least courageously do. However, Kurz chooses to do whatever is fashionable at the moment. Back then, it was to serve as a combat soldier in the IDF, and now it is to hold anti-Israeli opinions and show everyone how righteous and enlightened you are. Lastly, whether Kurz’s and other Israelis’ criticisms are justified or not, their voyages around the world as Israeli citizens who incite against their own country is an ugly and immoral behavior. This merchandise is highly demanded in the enlightened European nations and in some American circles. Jane Fonda acted similarly during the Vietnam War. She was harshly criticized and later on apologized for her mistake. Severe criticism is naturally legitimate, but only as long as one keeps it at home.
Sadly, these organizations have become soul mates. Intercollegiate athletics in America today has a bad case of gambling addiction. I do not refer to fans wagering on games. I refer to institutions that throw good money after bad in hopes of hitting that elusive jackpot — a championship. Few, if any, NCAA Division I athletics programs cover their costs, especially if indirect subsidies for physical plant and utilities are factored in. Yet programs and their boosters insist on spending more and more for coaches’ compensation, sumptuous facilities and player recruitment. They say they want to “reach the next level.” Their behavior resembles that of a problem gambler who, in placing ever-higher stakes to recoup his losses, succeeds only in reaching the next level of penury.
Just as the family of a problem gambler suffers from the diversion of limited resources away from essential needs, so the academic communities of Division I universities suffer from the diversion of limited resources away from their basic educational mission. Teaching, learning and research are starved as money is lavished on games. Viewed from this perspective, Louie and the floozy are perfect for each other. If only the Route 66 Casino Hotel offered a program to combat the kind of gambling addiction that afflicts Louie’s school and others like it across the country.

Clinton, Brits agree Pakistani nukes safe
A H L
by Matthew Lee
The Associated Press BELFAST, Northern Ireland — U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday that the Taliban siege of Pakistan’s army headquarters showed extremists are a growing threat to the nuclear-armed American ally, but she contended they don’t pose a risk to the country’s atomic arsenal. Clinton, in London on the second leg of a five-day tour of Europe and Russia, also joined British Foreign Secretary David Miliband in warning Iran that they would not wait long for the Islamic republic to convince the world that its nuclear intentions are peaceful. Before stops in Ireland and Northern Ireland, Clinton pledged continued U.S. support for the Northern Irish peace process and said those who continued to exacerbate tension and violence “are out of step and out of time.” With her British counterpart, Clinton said there was nothing to suggest that Pakistan’s nuclear weapons could fall into terrorist hands, despite Saturday’s audacious Taliban attack on the army headquarters in Rawalpindi that highlighted security weaknesses. Clinton said extremists were “increasingly threatening the authority of the state, but we see no evidence that they are going to take over the

Weekend victories set stage for tourney by Brandon Call Daily Lobo
The UNM men’s tennis team dominated this weekend’s Balloon Fiesta Invite at the Linda Estes Tennis Complex. The Lobos combined for a 25-6 record in singles and went 9-2 in doubles. UNM claimed three out of four semifinal spots in the top singles flight. Head coach Alan Dils said he was very pleased with UNM’s performance. “It was good to see everyone play well,” he said. “Everybody improved, even from just last week, and that’s our primary goal. From top to bottom, to have as dominant a performance as we had here, I think, is great.” Sophomore Carl Ho and freshman Conor Berg were victorious in the A and B singles draws. In doubles, the Lobo tandems of Ho and Phil Anderson and Ben Dunbar and Jadon Phillips went 4-0 and met in the doubles final, which went unplayed since it pitted two teams representing UNM against each other. Dils said he was not surprised by the results. “As a team, we’re not content with just being OK,” he said. “A number of guys are stepping up for us and filling the shoes of some great seniors from

You can feel the energy pervade the whole team.” Ho went 4-0 en route to winning his second-straight championship in the top singles flight, defeating fellow Lobo Phillips 6-2, 6-4 in the final. “It felt good to defend my title,” he said. “It was also good to see the team as a whole do so well. Everyone came out ready to play, and it was good that we could defend our home courts like we did.” Berg didn’t drop a set all weekend, finishing 5-0 after a 6-4, 6-3 win against Northern Arizona’s Kevin Taylor in the flight B championship match. Berg, a freshman from Greenacres, Calif., said he is adjusting to the new team. “It’s great, we’re all really close, and we have great team chemistry,” he said. “I thought I played really well this weekend. I got some college experience, and I hope to continue con-
tributing to the team.” The Lobos wrap up their fall schedule in Las Vegas, Nev., for the ITA Fall Regional Championships from Oct. 21 to Oct. 25. Coach Dils said UNM will carry its momentum from this weekend to the upcoming event. “(The ITA Fall Regional) is a big event for us,” he said. “I think this weekend built some confidence for us. Right now, I think we are in great shape. We’re in better shape than I thought we would be at this time of the year.”
said. Locksley said he couldn’t recall a time in his coaching career that he was winless six games into the season. “I’ve never been 0-6. There’s been some 1-5’s,” he said. “I don’t ever recall being 0-6 per se, but I do recall going through long stretches without wins. I think the
best way to keep (this team) together is to keep loving them, keep showing them the positive things they’re doing and staying consistent. I’ve been on some staffs where you’ve had long stretches of losing and sometimes you go into panic mode.”

If anything, Locksley said, UNM needs to find a way to maintain competitiveness for four quarters, not just a half. “That’s the big question,” he

Angels beat Red Sox in playoff upset by Jimmy Golen
The Associated Press BOSTON — Torii Hunter emerged from the visitors’ clubhouse at Fenway Park to spray champagne over the fans and family gathered there. Erick Aybar did him one better, handing over bottles of bubbly to those who came from California to see the Los Angeles Angels go for the sweep. History gave no reason to hope for such a celebration. The Angels and Vladimir Guerrero shrugged off their postseason failures and swept away the Red Sox on Sunday, scoring three runs off Jonathan Papelbon in the ninth inning to beat Boston 7-6 and advance to the American League Championship Series. It was the first postseason sweep in Angels franchise history. And they did it against the team that has knocked them out of the playoffs the previous four times they met. “I told you guys earlier: It’s going to be a different scene,” Hunter said in the clubhouse afterward. “Vladdy came through. That’s probably one of the biggest hits of his career. They’ve been waiting for him to do it, and he did it.” Papelbon was one strike away from extending the series with three different batters, but Aybar singled on a two-strike pitch, Chone Figgins walked after fouling off a full-count offering and Bobby Abreu fouled off three straight pitches before doubling in one run. Hunter was walked intentionally before Guerrero singled the first pitch to center and Figgins and Abreu raced home to give Los Angeles a 7-6 lead. Major league saves-leader Brian Fuentes pitched the ninth, and when Aybar caught Dustin Pedroia’s popup to end the game, pumping his right arm even as he tracked the ball with his left, the Angels advanced. “It’s nice to be going home and playing again, instead of going home and it’s over,” said pitcher John Lackey, who was part of the Angels teams that were eliminated by Boston three times in the previous five years. “This is the most fun for me, and I’ve got a ring. That says a lot.” An eight-time All-Star and former AL MVP, Guerrero has a .321 career batting average, 407 regular-season homers and 1,318 RBIs. But he’d managed only one extra-base hit in 69 at bats going into Game 3, and he had one RBI in 19 playoff games since his grand slam against Boston in the 2004 division series.
And he came through against Papelbon, who had never before allowed a run in 27 postseason innings. “You’re not going to get to him too often. But we did this afternoon,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. “And I felt great for Vlad. Hopefully, that’s a momentum-builder for him. … I know he’s relieved. He’s excited about contributing. And hopefully it will be the start of something good.” For the AL-West-champion Angels, it was a chance to extend their tribute to pitcher Nick Adenhart, who was killed in an April car crash with a man who has been charged with drunken driving. As they streamed out of the dugout to celebrate, Jered Weaver carried Adenhart’s jersey onto the field. “When it comes down to honoring Nick Adenhart, and what happened in April in Anaheim, yes, it probably was the biggest hit (of my career),” Guerrero said. “Because I’m dedicating that to a former teammate, a guy that passed away.” The Angels open their first ALCS since 2005 on Friday against either the New York Yankees or Minnesota. The Yankees led that series 2-0 going into Game 3 Sunday night. “We’re finally here,” said Angels owner Arte Moreno, who bought the team in 2003, a year after they won their only World Series. “I think that the fourth time’s a charm. It’s great for us, because we’ve been knocking on the door for a while.” Los Angeles trailed 5-1 early, was behind 5-2 after seven innings and still down 6-4 when Papelbon retired the first two batters of the ninth. The crowd that just one inning earlier had been primed for a celebration quietly filed out of the ballpark for the last time in 2009, having seen the wild-card Red Sox beaten. “The season doesn’t wind down. It just comes to a crashing halt,” Boston manager Terry Francona said. “You go into the top of the inning excited, because you think you’re going to keep playing. Half an inning later, you’re going home. So it’s disappointing.” The Red Sox had won 12 of 13 postseason games against the Angels heading into the series, including an 11-game winning streak that dated back to Dave Henderson’s homer off Donnie Moore in the 1986 ALCS. Henderson, not coincidentally, threw out the ceremonial first pitch on Sunday, even adding a little jump and twist like the one he did after he helped propel Boston to within one
strike of the ‘86 World Series title. Hendu’s shot in Game 5 sent the Red Sox to a win by the same 7-6 score. Boston didn’t win it that year, but they ended their 86-year championship drought in 2004 after sweeping Los Angeles in the first round. The Red Sox swept out the Angels again in ‘07 en route to a second title, and beat them in four games last year before losing to Tampa Bay in the ALCS.

LOBO FOOTBALL
Locksley: I don’t ever recall being 0-6 by Isaac Avilucea and Ryan Tomari Daily Lobo
Smile Lobo fans — the UNM football team can’t possibly lose this coming Saturday. UNM won’t play for two weeks thanks to a bye this week, something Lobo football coach Mike Locksley said is a blessing, considering how banged up the Lobos are. Most notably, tailback Demond Dennis was absent and didn’t play in UNM’s 37-13 loss Saturday to conference foe Wyoming. Defensive end Jaymar Latchison was injured during Saturday’s contest. He is day-to-day with a high ankle sprain, Locksley said, adding that other players have “nicks and bruises.” It doesn’t help that, for the first time since 1987, the Lobos are 0-6 — and have lost 10 consecutive games dating back to the 2008 season. UNM was competitive for a half, heading into intermission down just 17-13 to the Cowboys. But the wheels fell off in the second half, and the Lobos couldn’t sustain the momentum they built. Almost a foot of snow fell on the

who continued his hot streak. For the fifth-straight game, Messina finished in the double digits with 11 tackles. Wyoming scored its first points with 7:06 left in the first quarter.

There was no jet lag for the UNM women’s soccer team. After their first conference loss of the season against Wyoming, the Lobos bounced back UNM 1 strong on Saturday against. Air 0 AFA Force. The Lobos beat Air Force for the sixth consecutive time, 1-0, improving to 10-22 overall on the season. Despite 24 fouls between the teams on Saturday, UNM came out victorious, with midfielder Rachel Fields scoring the lone goal against the Falcons off a rebound near the net in the 56th minute. The Lobos’ defense held Air Force in check and limited the Falcons to just one shot on goal. The difference between Saturday’s win and Thursday’s loss, head coach Kit Vela said, was luck and nerves. “You know Wyoming didn’t really do anything to win that game,” Vela said. “We gave them opportunities, and we need to not do that. We hadn’t in nonconference, so I think it (was) more nerves.” Some of those nerves carried

over to the first half of Saturday’s game, said Fields. Vela said the Lobos played well against Air Force but need to come out with more intensity. “We need to clean up the details,” Vela said. “But some of it is out of our control when the referee is calling soft fouls. It’s hard to get a rhythm when they’re just launching balls back at you.” With the win, the Lobos reached 10 wins for the first time since 2002. “I know that this year, this team has shown great character through tough situations,” Fields said. “We are a team all together — we’re not just individuals. That makes us better. The first half, we’re still getting our nerves together. It was a great team effort.” Freshman goalkeeper Kelli Cornell played a big role in Saturday’s shutout, recording her ninth shutout this season, which puts her in a tie for second in school history for most shutouts in a season. Cornell said the Lobo front line made her job easier. “I have big shoes to fill. I just want to help the team win and help us be successful,” she said. “They’re just really strong, and we support each other and we have each other’s backs.”
Vela said she’s pleased with Cornell and the team’s progress. “Kelli is a fantastic goalkeeper,” Vela said. “She just needs to be in these games to feel the pressure and emotions of it all. She has been outstanding. This is her redshirt freshman year, and she’s just learning the emotions of the game like everyone else.” However, Vela said, while there is a learning curve, she wants the Lobos to adopt a killer instinct, something they lacked against Wyoming but fixed against Air Force. “Not that Air Force has the name like a Texas — you can always get up for a Texas — but it’s harder to get up for an Air Force,” she said. “While they might not be as good a soccer team as a Texas, they’re going to be more emotional. There’s that conference desire.” All that will come with time, Vela said. “We’re really young,” she said. “We still have a lot of nerves — we showed that versus Wyoming. After we scored first, we let up and Wyoming took advantage of that. Tonight, we did a good job of staying focused and staying concentrated, but we’re really young and the emotions are what we’re trying to get used to.”
Rose Morris Volleyball Morris smashed 17 kills against Utah, helping her team to break a 13-year-long losing streak against the Utes. She helped end the final game with a key block assisted by Ashley Rhoades. The Lobos won the match 3-1.
