The Lobo Development Corporation has hosted forums since August to give students, faculty and community members input on campus construction plans, but few showed up. Lobo Development collaborated with American Campus Communities to build student housing on south campus, and now has plans to begin more construction on main campus, according to its website. But a post on the Lobo Development Facebook page suggests that many students don’t know about what the construction entails or how it affects them. “It sounds like many students were unaware of this new UNM housing plan,” the post from graduate student Theresa Williams says. “Maybe the planners should have better engaged the students

Alcoholic energy drink boasts high sales despite risks by Shaun Griswold shaun24@unm.edu

Laurisa Galvan / Daily Lobo Four Loko, sold at The Quarters liquor store on Yale Boulevard, is banned in four states because critics contest its mix of malt liquor and energy supplements is deadly.

Albuquerque store owners that sell the malt-liquor-infused energy drink Four Loko are surprised that several state bans and a series of bad press have spurned curiosity about the drink. “Everybody loves it,” Quarters Liquors’ manager Mike Walterscheid said. Four Loko is sold in a 24-ounce can. It has 12 percent alcohol by volume. Guarana and taurine are added to give the drink its caffeine boost, which is equal to two cups of coffee. Recently, the Four Loko’s maker agreed to stop shipping its product to New York. Utah, Oklahoma, Michigan and Washington. Ramapo College, in New Jersey, banned the substance after 17 students were hospitalized with alcohol poisoning after consuming too much of the caffeinated, alcoholic drink. A University of Florida study found that students who mixed caffeine and alcohol thought they were capable of driving more often than those who drank non-caffeinated alcoholic drinks. UNM student John Buric said he tried Four Loko after a friend brought a case over to his house. “It tasted like an energy drink with basically no taste of alcohol,” he said. “I like it. It comes in good size can. It has a high amount of alcohol, and it’s cheap.” Not only that, but recent news and an impending federal ban spiked curiosity and increased sales at the Yale

Boulevard Quarters. “We get a lot of students, but older people are checking it out,” Walterscheid said. “We had a 50-year-old guy come in the other day to buy one because he saw a news story and wanted to try one. People will do things they know are bad for them.” The Quarters sells eight different Four Loko flavors. On Tuesday afternoon, one-third of the rack was empty. Student Cohen Mangin said moderation is the key to avoiding problems. “It’s only bad for you if you act stupid,” he said. Ron Rioux, 52, walked out of the Quarters with two Budweiser tall cans. He said he has no desire to try Four Loko “Based on what I know about it, I would support a ban,” he said. Walterscheid said he is surprised about the brand’s sales, especially since he cannot stand the taste. “When they put the energy and the vitamins, it messes with the flavor,” he said. “I bought one and only lasted through one drink. I threw away more than half of the can.” Down the hill at Stadium Liquors on Avenida Caesar Chavez and Broadway Boulevard, Four Loko sales are steady. “Maybe we sell two cases a week,” said Troy Garcia, Stadium Liquors store manager. “I think people don’t buy it because of the price. We have other malt liquors that are 12 percent and cheaper.” Stadium sells a 24-ounce can of Four Loko for $2.40. The store has a

Letter

America is not really a democracy, so why vote? Editor, So, another election cycle has come and gone. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Elections change nothing. It helps the ruling class to keep the charade of a representative democracy going in this country, despite overwhelming evidence that we now live in a one-party corporate state that is sliding deeper toward fascism every day. Keeping the citizens placated with fake elections and pretend democracy is the easiest way to accomplish this. Unfortunately, most of my fellow Americans are too dumb to understand what fascism is, let alone recognize the obvious signs all around them. The oligarchy depends on our laziness and indifference to ensure our continued servitude to their evil cause. It’s worked to perfection so far. Why quit now? I’ve lived through enough “elections” to realize that nothing can change in a system built exclusively around the continuation of the status quo. These people aren’t stupid. They own the media (and everything else), and they push the illusion of freedom and democracy on the ignorant, docile American public because they know we’re the biggest suckers on Earth. President Obama is just as much a tool of the elite as Bush was. Sorry to say, but otherwise he never would’ve been installed as president. Oh, sure, things change incrementally once in a while depending on which makebelieve political party is in power, but eventually things revert back to the same policies that were in place before the last election: The rich get richer; the poor get poorer, and the illegal wars continue unabated. Surprise, surprise! I know most of you aren’t old enough to see these patterns yet, but trust me on this: Nothing short of a violent revolution will make one damn bit of difference to the true rulers of our nation because they control both sides of the same, tainted coin. Both imaginary political parties work for the same people in service to the same agenda of globalization and disenfranchisement. Of course, most of you have been brainwashed to believe the fairy tale that your vote actually counts, and that those of us smart enough to see the truth are somehow less patriotic because we refuse to accept the totally rigged, faith-based U.S. election process as being legitimate. Why cast a worthless vote just so you can feel good about yourself? That’s about all it’s good for. I really don’t know what it will take for people to come around to the reality that our country is firmly in the grip of an entrenched, wealthy, powerful and criminal ruling class that will never give up control of our political system unless it’s taken from them by force. A grim reality for sure, but how can we change it if we can’t even recognize it? Until then, you political zombies just keep on doing your civic duty and wondering why nothing ever changes, OK? Good luck with that whole concept. Jason Darensburg UNM student

column

Mexican cops: Turn back now by Andrew Beale

Assistant Culture Editor This isn’t an opinion column. It’s just something that happened. And what happened was basically this: I got run out of Mexico by some cops. It should be noted that everyone I met in Mexico on this journey was nice. I don’t intend to disparage the country. Like I said, I’m just telling the story of something that happened. I was at a journalism conference in Laredo, Texas, on Friday. Laredo borders Nuevo Laredo, and my hotel was less than two blocks from the bridge crossing into Mexico. I knew Nuevo Laredo, a city of 350,000, was dangerous. The Laredo Morning Times had a simple headline on its front page Friday: “More violence.” The publication assumed its readers would know it meant “…in Nuevo Laredo.” I decided to head over there and check it out anyway. I didn’t have anything to do after the conference ended at 6 p.m., and there was no way I wasn’t going to go to Mexico when it was right at my doorstep. Everything seemed OK when I crossed the bridge. I stayed on the main street, Calle Guerrero, and it was full of life. I didn’t think there would be so many people in the street if it was really a war zone. I passed a movie theater about a mile from the bridge. They were showing that stupid Robert Downey Jr./Zach Galifianakis movie, and as I said, I didn’t have anything to do, so I waited around for the movie to start. My mistake was in wandering a few blocks west of Calle Guerrero. As I passed a police station, a cop whistled. Since I wasn’t doing anything, I didn’t even think about it, but he whistled again, and I saw he was walking toward me, so I stopped.

“We’re going to check you,” he said in Spanish. “Stand over there by the wall.” I moved over to the wall and another policeman came over. They decided to stop me for being an American in Mexico. The police station was on the other side of the street and set well back from the sidewalk. The cop picked me out as a gringo from a good 50 feet off. “Take everything out of your pockets. Do you have any weapons or drugs?” I told him that I didn’t as I emptied my pockets. I left my wallet and my passport in my back pocket, and the cop found them. “What’s this?” “Just my passport.” “I said everything out of your pockets.” I took my wallet and my passport out of my pockets, and the cop instructed me to toss them on the ground. This made me feel uncomfortable, but he had a big-ass shotgun, so I didn’t really have a choice. Then they questioned me about why I was in Nuevo Laredo. I told them I was just “paseando” or walking around. I said I was at a conference in Texas and didn’t have anything to do, so I came to see Nuevo Laredo. I hesitated when they asked me what kind of conference. Mexico is consistently ranked among the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists, and government authority figures, like these cops, are often implicated in the journalist killings. But I couldn’t think of a plausible-sounding lie fast enough, so I just told them it was a journalism conference. Then they asked me if I was selling drugs. I was not, by the way, and I said so. “It’s better that you don’t lie.” I told them again that I’m am not a drug dealer, so they started asking me if I take drugs. “No, señor.”

“Do you smoke marijuana?” “No, señor.” “Not at all?” “No, señor.” “No marijuana? You don’t smoke?” I told them I don’t even drink alcohol, which is true. “But you don’t smoke marijuana?” “No, señor.” “Not even a toquecito now and then?” “No, señor.” Having searched me, they obviously knew I had no drugs, yet they were still keeping me there. I started to worry they were going to plant, say, 100 kilos of heroin on me. Such things have been known to happen in Mexico. They were both kind of chubby, so I figured I could outrun them if they tried to arrest me. Of course, that would carry the risk that they might just shoot me in the back. But my detainment was coming to an end. “You shouldn’t be here. It’s dangerous in this city. We’ve had problems. It’s better that you leave right now.” I asked him if it was safe, more or less, on Calle Guerrero. “The safest place is here, close to the police station. You should leave now and go back to the United States.” And it was over. I walked away, and didn’t go to the movie, but I did stop for some tacos before I left. So you could say I didn’t really get “run out” of Mexico. But from the cops’ mannerisms, tone of voice, and general way of shaking me down, it was clear that “you should leave” wasn’t exactly a suggestion. It seems significant that the Mexican police in a major border city are telling Americans to go home because it’s too dangerous for them. And since this isn’t an opinion column, I’ll leave it at that.

and community from the beginning, and throughout the entire process. What efforts have Lobo Development made to outreach and gather student input?� A Lobo Development representative responded by saying that it’s “always looking for ways to engage with students,� and cited forums that were held once a week from Aug. 26-Nov. 9. “Everyone with an interest in campus development is invited to participate: students, faculty, neighbors, staff, public officials and property owners,� the website said. Kim Murphy, director of UNM Real Estate, said LDC records the number of students through signup sheets at each forum, but that the numbers were “incomplete� as of Monday. Several homeowners in the neighborhood west of Lobo Village construction on south campus said they never heard about the impending construction or community forums. Steve Mills, Campus Neighborhood Association spokesman, said Lobo Development contacted him with information about upcoming construction projects and the forums. Mills said he serves as a go-between, relaying UNM Real Estate decisions to the neighborhood members. The neighborhood is situated near Campus Boulevard and Vassar Drive across from the Alvarado dorm and D parking lot, but some neighborhood members wanted more information than what forums offered, Mills said. “Four or five households actually went down to the real estate office and had a question-and-answer session with Lobo Development because they were unclear on some aspects of the construction,� he said. Mills said communication between the University Real Estate and the neighborhood is “pretty good,� but he has some complaints. He said he is worried about construction noise, traffic displacement and pollutants. “This neighborhood sits right on the edge of the UNM, so anything that happens to UNM happens to us,� he said. “So, there is always a certain level of discontent among the neighborhood about the effect UNM has on us.� Richard Reid’s house is located across the street from D lot and Santa Ana dorm where the majority of the construction will occur, but he said he didn’t know about

it until reading a recent newspaper article. “Mills sent out some notices about it, but until about a month ago, I had no idea it would be right across the street,� he said. “When I heard that, I went over to the (UNM) Real Estate office and had a briefing with them about the plans.� Reid said he attended one Lobo Development session, but ACC officials at the event did not present details about the construction, only general concepts. “At first I thought there was a pretty good turnout at the forum, but then I realized that only about 20 people were not representatives from Lobo Development or ACC who were all speaking from the same perspective,� he said. “I would have thought that there would be more students there.� Right now, Santa Ana offers 172 beds, but when the construction is done up to 1,000 new beds will be available. Reid said that will increase student density, the amount of trash and pollution. “I’m not blaming the students,� he said. “I’m just saying that the more people there are, the poorer the quality of life.�

Student Sarah Hoppe said she first she heard about the construction when reading a Daily Lobo article. “I never heard of any forums, either,� she said. Another student, Sabrina Contla, said she hadn’t heard of construction plans until reading the Daily Lobo, and she also had not heard of the forums. Brent McPherson, Lobo Village property manager, said he went to one forum that about 20 other people attended. He said about 10 students, five faculty, and five community members were at the event. “The great thing about forums is that everyone’s voice can be heard,� he said.

New life is springing from Albuquerque’s recycled materials. A new partnership between the city of Albuquerque and Growstone, a subset of Santa Fe-based company Earthstone, has landfill glass waste being turned into a hydroponic gardening tool. “Glass makes up about 8 percent of municipal landfills,� said Patrick Beare, Growstone’s vice president of sales. “And it takes about 4,000 years for glass to decompose on a landfill.� The city of Albuquerque landfill pulverizes glass bottles, which Growstone then grinds to a powder and runs through a kiln, said Andy Hernandez, Earthstone director of operations. “Seventy-one minutes later it comes out — it’s like baking a cake!� he said. Hernandez said the growstones are cut from pieces of baked powder to form hydroponic stones that are used in place of soil. “The roots of the plant actually grow around our material,� he said. “What happens is our material absorbs the water and when the roots

“We as a country only recycle between 28 to 34 percent of the glass we produce,� he said. “Many cities will only sort out the glass because it takes up so much room in a landfill that they crush it and then bury it. It takes clear glass to make a recycled clear jar.� The stones have benefits over soil and other hydroponic mechanisms, Hernandez said. “Our material is so lightweight,� he said. “It weighs 12 pounds per cubic foot, so it can be used on rooftops and high-rise buildings. We had several tests done at the University of Arizona versus our competitors, and what they found was that our product uses less water and provides a sweeter fruit.� Beare said Growstone has plans to process other landfill waste. “Eventually we will be using the methane that is being produced from the landfill to run our kiln,� he said. “Also, we don’t use water to produce our product. It is a dry process, so that is another reason why our product is so green.�

content,� he said. “But I don’t know how you would regulate that.� If New Mexico were to adopt a tax on malt-liquor energy drinks, Walterscheid said his customers would determine if he would continue selling the cans. “We’d probably continue selling them if there was a demand,� he said. Carla Aargon was on her way into Stadium Liquors to buy her friend a Four Loko. She said she is not interested in trying the drink, though. “I’ve seen my friend drink it, and she’s 40 years old. It really boosts her energy,� she said. “It’s scary. You already have so much energy when you drink that adding caffeine doesn’t mix.�

Walterscheid said promoting responsible drinking is better than banning the product. “It’s not the product itself — people abuse it. Like, there is a Four Loko challenge where you have to drink four cans in 40 minutes. That’s dumb,� Walterscheid said. You wouldn’t try to drink a fifth of vodka in 30 minutes.� Mangin agreed a ban would prompt people to find alternatives to make whatever drink they want. “I’ve been mixing my own version of Four Loko for years,� he said. “My mom taught me, actually. One night I drank 22 beers and an entire bottle of Smirnoff vodka mixed with Amp energy drink. I threw up a lot that night.�

In half an hour, more than 20 customers walked in and grabbed one or two cans, paid exact change and walked out. “We have regulars come in each day,� Garcia said. “They go out to collect change and come back, but we won’t serve them if they’ve been here more than twice.� Garcia said it is difficult to control malt-liquor energy drink sales because the drink is classified as beer, making it easier to distribute. “Unless you make a law that says beer has to be a certain alcohol

get thirsty, they draw from our material automatically. What that means is less water, and more consistent water, but no soil.� Maria Colbert, an Albuquerque Hydroponics representative, said the store has carried Santa Fe Earthstone products for two years, and they are useful. “They hold a lot of moisture as well as they are really airy. For people who want to use it as soil, you can use it instead of perlite. It has got multiple different uses that you could utilize it for,� she said. “They are a local product. The people that are trying to support that — it definitely helps out.� Beare said the company foresees the product becoming popular in the future, as it is one of the first hydroponic growing media in a long time. “A lot of people think that just because they put glass in this recycling bin that it is actually being made into something else, and that is not always true,� he said. “We are able to take this glass and use it and make it into a product that you can actually grow things from.� Beare said glass is difficult to recycle because it has to be sorted by color.

ZOMBIE APOC ALYPSE by Chris Quintana

culture@dailylobo.com

Interview with a Zombie

The undead apocalypse starts today.

Zombies were seen last night emerging from the Frontier Restaurant and have since proliferated across campus. Sightings have been confirmed near Johnson Field, the SUB and around the Duck Pond. Be advised: The zombies are biting. Chief Zombie Survivalist David Lopez has been on scene since the outbreak last night. He said people looking to avoid infection should tread carefully around the zombies. “Right now, they seem only to be attacking people with special blood types designated by wristbands,â€? he said. “Everyone else should be safe, unless they don’t want to be ‌â€? He warned that zombies are green, and possibly wearing tattered clothes. They are also hungry for brains and will troll campus looking for victims. He said he can’t give a solid definition for all zombies around campus because they are likely in different phases of infection. He warned that anyone displaying zombie-like behavior is probably a zombie. “I mean, if they are stumbling, it’s better to be safe than sorry. This is a zombie apocalypse after all,â€? he said. Lopez said the invasion started low-key. Only some of his friends knew of the impending invasion, around 50 infected, but somehow word got out on Facebook, and the disease spread rapidly. “It’s just blossomed into this giant thing,â€? he said. “Everyone else seems excited, but I am kind of worried. Zombies are a hungry bunch, and there’s a chance it might get out of control if people are too reckless.â€? Lopez said the military has been called in to deal with the problem, and he expects it should be able to deal with the problem. He mentioned soldiers will use special zombie-blasting guns, ones that don’t resemble real guns. In fact, he said, the guns resemble NERF guns and shoot foam pellets. He said any real-looking gun will create more problems than it will solve. “Real guns will drive the zombies into a frenzy, and it’s likely there will be terrible consequences for everyone involved,â€? he said. “So if survivors want to wield a weapon, they have got to be sure it’s specially zombie-certified.â€? Lopez will be situated in a booth near the attacking zombies to offer survivors advice. He did have some good news: At the time of press, he said it seemed that the zombies were in full force now, but it seems highly likely they will run out of food around 2 p.m. “And when that happens there won’t be any issues anymore,â€? he said. The survivors will be fine, the zombies will shrivel up, and the

“Right now, they seem only to be attacking people with special blood types designated by wristbands.� ~David Lopez Chief Zombie Survivalist military will be recalled. If the virus dies, it will be as though it never even happened.� Note: Lopez said UNM officials have been warned about the problem, and they are coping with it as best as they can. Many of them, he said, declined to participate in the invasion and are hiding in their offices. Lopez said as long as everyone follows invasion rules, mainly the one concerning guns, everyone should be safe and unscathed by the end of the day, except, you know, for the zombies. “All in all, it could even be fun,� he said. “It could be scary, but who hasn’t fantasized about being in a zombie apocalypse?�

With the zombie crisis in full swing, here’s an exclusive interview with an actual undead CNM student Genevieve Wright. Daily Lobo: So how’s life for a zombie these days? Genevieve Wright: Life’s rough. You’re always craving brain. (Note: This was translated from a series of gurgles and growls.) DL: Like what specifically? GW: Everything’s just kind of gross. You’re walking around with blood on you all the time, and the brain craving just never stops. DL: You seem really stuck on that brain craving thing. GW: Yeah, it really sucks craving brain because it’s a never-ending thing, and I need to watch my figure. DL: So I think there’s generally a misconception about zombie movies. Those are just as scary to you guys as they are to us, right? GW: Yeah, “Zombieland� is terrifying. People are running around getting shot or getting killed or run over by cars. It’s rough. DL: Is there any form of pop culture that you guys do like? GW: Rob Zombie is pretty cool. DL: Right, is there any type of brain you prefer over another? Do smarter people taste better? Are the creative types spicier? GW: I don’t have a preference. I am always craving. I take whatever I can get. I can’t afford to be picky. DL: What else do zombies worry about, other than brains, that is? GW: Getting killed is a big issue. DL: How about true love? GW: Nah, not really. Plus, if a zombie fell in love with a human, that would make things difficult. We would just want to eat their brain. DL: Do you think zombies and humans could ever live together? GW: I don’t think so. DL: Wait, what are you doing? Don’t eat my braiiiin! ~Chris Quintana

Survival tips and tricks to keep from being devoured by brain-eating zombies

easier to fight going down. And stock up on food and water before they try to defend themselves. And fight in a group, always.” “I use an M16 and grenade launcher. And a crossbow.” “We’ve got face paint, and uh … Actually, we haven’t done too much preparation now that I think about it.” “I heard it’s going to travel from campus to the Duck Pond.” OK, on second thought, waiting around for the Army might not be the best idea. So prepare your torches.

Zombie survivor offers advice, luck For those trying to make it through the zombie apocalypse in one piece, longtime zombie survivor Kodi Schmaltz has some advice to offer. • In an apocalyptic situation, a person should bug in or bug out. Bugging in involves a person barricading him or herself in a building with enough supplies to outlast the zombie attack. Bugging out involves packing a survival bag and hitting the road while trying to find some safe ground. Either way, doing nothing is not an option. • Have an area to meet loved ones if you feel you can’t live without them. • If you think you can handle some alone time, head out alone. You’ll travel faster. • Don’t be afraid to kill your loved ones. If they are zombies, they still love your heart, but they are more interested in eating it. • Head north. Zombies haven’t mastered the art of wearing overcoats and will likely freeze to death. • Disease is spread by exchange of bodily fluids, so avoid contact with zombies, particularly getting bitten or getting sprayed by blood. • If you are bitten, kill yourself. There are no immunities, and you will be doing your loved ones a favor. Note: Amputation of the infected limb will not save you. • Infected individuals have 24 hours before they turn into full-blown zombies. • The military will be out killing zombies, so take precautions not to look like a zombie. Maintain good hygiene; don’t be green, don’t let blood ooze out of your orifices and no tattered clothing. • Most importantly, trust no one. Stay close to the people who you would give you their last cigarette, too, and don’t give anyone a chance. Good luck out there.

There will be spilled brains. Luckily for you, the innocent potential zombie meal, the Daily Lobo compiled a list of combat tips in the extremely likely event that you have to fight an undead army to keep your precious gray matter safe: Go for the head. A zombie will not die unless its rotten brain is destroyed. Although it may be missing both arms and legs and be dripping its entrails behind as it ambles toward you, it is not dead unless the head is destroyed. Boards are not going to keep anything out. Zombies will break through them in short order. Without full-scale armor plating, you’re screwed. And even if you’re in, say, a triple-armor-plated fallout shelter, they’ll probably get in through the ventilation shaft. Pretending to be a zombie occasionally works. For some reason, zombies only like living brains, so practice your ambling. Zombies are scared of fire. Torches are always a good idea, at least until someone knocks it over and it burns your shelter down. The army will eventually show up and take care of things, after which you will live in a dystopian quarantine zone under the fascist gaze of a tyrannical dictator. Speaking of the Army, the Lobo managed to assemble some advice straight from the military. How to kill a zombie, in the words of soldier Charles Faust: “Get to high ground. Zombies are not so good at climbing. It’s always

Another impressive display by another UNM freshman. Guard Kendall Williams shot 4-of-5 from the 3-point range and finished with 15 points to lead UNM (2-0) to a 76-62 victory over Arizona State at The Pit on Tuesday night. “The hoop was big,” Williams said. “They showed a lot of attention to Dairese (Gary), and that helps. Maybe they didn’t scout me, but we just get to the lane a lot, and when I get the open chance to dunk it, I’ll dunk the ball.” Williams played big time on both sides of the ball. He dropped two crowd-raising baskets with more than six minutes left in the game. Those pretty much sealed the victory. Phillip McDonald sat on the bench in street clothes for his second straight game. He will undergo an evaluation today to see if he can play Saturday against California. In his place, Williams shined. “With Phillip (McDonald) going out, they asked me to step into the starting spot, and I want to fill the big void that Phil left,” Williams said. Paced by ASU guard Trent Lockett’s career-high 22 points, the Sun Devils hung around but did not provide enough support. No other ASU players reached double figures. Nine Lobos scored in the game, three in double digits. Gary led the Lobos with 18 points. UNM shot 46 percent from the field compared to ASU’s 40 percent. “I thought tonight was a tremendous effort and a tremendous win for our young team,” head coach Steve Alford said. “They’re growing up quick, and that’s what I need to have them do.” Initially, things looked grim for the young Lobos. ASU jumped to a 13-7 lead, but UNM’s bench sparked a 20-0 run over a seven-minute period to turn the early deficit into a 14-point lead. “We have a lot of new guys, and

we’re still trying to find the right combinations, but I think the guys had a good night tonight,” Alford said. Seven different Lobos scored during the big run before Lockett drew a foul and hit two free throws with 6:38 left in the first half. “It’s definitely nice, good to have speed out there. It helps out advantage,” said Gary, who went to UNM 76 the bench halfway through 62 ASU the run. From there, the Sun Devils played catch up the rest of the game. Still ASU proved to a tough earlyseason match for UNM. Early on, ASU didn’t allow the Lobos to pull away with the game, closing any run the home team went on. After UNM’s big first-half run, ASU went on a 9-2 run to cut the Lobos’ 14point lead down to nine at the half. Toward the end of the game, ASU pulled within 14, after the Lobos led by 20, their largest lead of the night. Lockett gave the Lobos fits all night. He made his first five baskets and shot 9-of-12 from the field. Ty Abbott, who originally signed with UNM but went to Tempe after former head coach Ritchie McKay was fired, scored eight points in 32 minutes of play. Thirty-nine fouls were called between the two schools. ASU received a technical foul with 10 minutes left in the game. “It’s very frustrating,” Gary said. “Some of the turnovers were a couple charges there, not even at the basket, but you can’t change what the refs call. You just have to keep playing.” The Lobos head to Berkeley for a game against another Pac-10 school, California. “We’ll continue to mature as a basketball team,” Alford said. “I’m really pleased with what we did tonight. We took good shots tonight. We had a higher percentage than last week, so I am happy with that.”
