President Frank proposes new budget process New system would tie departments to own revenue by Svetlana Ozden news@dailylobo.com

UNM President Robert Frank looks to change the University’s budget model to a system that would require each department to depend on the money it generates.

UNM mulls new college

Frank said the model, which is called “Responsibility Center Management” (RCM), would change the way money is distributed throughout the University. He said that rather than money being allocated from a central source, schools and departments at the University, such as the College of Arts and Sciences, would use departmental revenue for funding. “The way revenue is calculated,

is it comes from the student credit hours. You get credit for how many student credit hours you create and you get credit for grants and contracts and tuitions. And then how much you have in, if you have endowments and gifts and other things that come in,” he said. “So that creates all of your revenue and then you also track what your costs are.” Frank said departments would be responsible for funding depart-

mental staff and faculty members and overhead for the University, which includes costs for departments that don’t generate revenue, such as the president’s office and the libraries. Frank said the system is simpler than the current budget system in that the new system would track the revenue each department collects and spends. He said that it’s easy to forget how each depart-

ment’s budget was calculated with the current system because funding is allocated for specific reasons, such as a new professor. “Each year we put money in each place, and then over time we don’t remember why we’ve put all the money everywhere,” he said. “And then somebody comes forward and says ‘You know, we need

VIGILANCE

President says public health college would benefit NM by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com

As part of his goals as the new president, UNM President Robert Frank plans to establish a College of Public Health that will offer undergraduate, master’s and doctoral degrees to students. Frank said UNM offers a master’s degree in public health that has been successful but still needs improvement. He said that if the University approves his proposal, it would be the first public health college in New Mexico. “We’ve been running that program for a number of years and it’s been very successful,” he said. “But a college provides … much broader training on public health. This is where we’re planning to go.” Frank said that at 21 percent, New Mexico has a comparatively high rate of uninsured patients. He said a college of public health at the University could address this problem. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 16.7 percent of people in the United States were uninsured in 2009. According to the bureau, about 26.1 percent of people in Texas were uninsured, the highest rate in the country. Florida and New Mexico followed at 22.4 and 21.7 percent, respectively. Frank said that because New Mexico has a diverse population, some people, including undocumented immigrants, do not have enough access to health care. He said many New Mexicans lack basic vaccinations and are more prone to various diseases. “Some parts of our community have high rates of diseases like diabetes and hepatitis C,”

Natalia Jácquez / Daily Lobo The LGBTQ Resource Center hosted a candlelight vigil at the Duck Pond on Tuesday night to honor transgendered murder victims on the Transgender Day of Remembrance. The vigil featured luminarias to represent transgendered people who have been murdered within the last year. Of the 265 people murdered, five were from New Mexico.

Women’s basketball takes the Rivalry Lobos thrash the Aggies 60-37 at The Pit by Michael Sol Warren sports@dailylobo.com @MSolDub

Defense was the theme of the night for the UNM women’s basketball team, which beat instate rival New Mexico State 60-37. The Lobos held their rivals scoreless from beyond the arc, with the Aggies missing all 18 of their attempted 3s. UNM is off to their first 4-0 start since the 2004-2005 season. That team finished 26-4, setting the mark for best win percentage in school history before falling to

Purdue in the first round of the NCAA tournament. “4-0, that’s fun,” UNM head coach Yvonne Sanchez said. “We’re still a work in progress, and we’re going to be for a little bit, but you’d rather learn your lessons through a win.” The Lobos got out quick in the first half, taking a double digit lead within nine minutes. The gap between the two teams remained the same for most of the half. The Aggies picked up their scoring near the end of the period. The two teams returned to the locker rooms with the score 27-22 in the Lobos’ favor. “There was a stretch where we just didn’t stay poised,” Sanchez said. “They pressed us and we

threw the ball away, but in the second half we figured it out.” The first half lead was due in large part to strong efforts by senior forward Jourdan Erskine and freshman guard Bryce Owens. Erskine dominated the paint throughout the half, with four rebounds and two blocks before the break. Owens, who played all 20 minutes of the first half, consistently found open Lobos. She had five assists at halftime. Opening the second half on an 11-4 run, the Lobos took the momentum from the Aggies and never gave it back. Senior guard Caroline Durbin led all players in scoring with 14 points, including a 3-point basket in the second half. The score put an end to any hopes

of an Aggie comeback. “I could feel the momentum,” Durbin said. “Right before that I had missed a three, so when I got it back I knew ‘I have to knock this down’. I feel like it got us going, I think everyone felt energized by it.” UNM outscored NMSU 33-15 in the second period, holding the Aggies to just 4-32 from the field. “We just made sure that we contested shots,” Sanchez said. “We sat on their right hand so they had to go left. Some of our little adjustments hurt them; they rushed their shots and we tried to get the rebounds.”

Laptop reported stolen from George Pearl Hall UNMPD was dispatched to George Pearl Hall on Nov. 6 in response to a theft in the drafting department. According to the police report, UNM student Samuel Escoto left his laptop locked in a desk at 3:15 p.m. that day, and when he returned for it at 4 p.m., he discovered the lock had been pried open and the laptop was stolen. According to the report, people can gain access to the drafting department with a key card, but there are no cameras in the area. The report states that theft has been an ongoing problem in the department, but that not all thefts are reported. Information about the laptop was entered into the National Crime Information Center database and the case in considered closed pending further leads.

We’ll still run on the old book, but we’ll have the new model, and you can see if we were on this new model, this is how it would have looked it would look,” he said. “A pilot model, if you would.” The Board of Regents would have to approve the new model for it to take effect. Frank said costs to implement the new system have not yet been determined, but that it would include education costs to teach University leaders how to use the system and software costs. But he said the new system should be easy to implement because the University’s data system for the departments is set up in a way that will transfer to the University’s accounting system well.

some controversy because University leaders are unsure of how it will be implemented. Faculty Senate President Amy Neel, who sits on the budget steering committee, said the committee has discussed how the system will work at the University. She said the system can be implemented in many different ways, which causes some concern since the exact method has not yet been decided. “I think the thing that’s most worrisome to people right now is that we don’t know how it will work. We’re not even close to deciding how exactly it’s going to work,” she said. “And so that makes people nervous. Uncertainty and change make people nervous.” Neel said the new system would focus on revenue-generating units but fail to look at efficiency and cost centers, such as the president’s office, human resources and Culture Editor Nicole Perez Assistant Culture Editor Antonio Sanchez Sports Editor Thomas Romero-Salas Assistant Sports Editor J. R. Oppenheim Opinion/ Social Media Editor Alexandra Swanberg Multimedia Editor Zachary Zahorik

Information Technologies. She said part of the concern is that the new system may require that departments that generate more revenue help fund departments that generate less revenue. “I think in general you can say that big undergraduate classes are going to probably bring in money because you’ve got maybe a parttime instructor or a teaching assistant teaching them for very low pay and they’re bringing in a lot of tuition dollars,” she said. “And then thinking about graduate classes, we’ve got tenured professors and maybe associate or full-time professors teaching small numbers of students. And those are the kinds of courses that have to be subsidized by the big course, I think that’s the kind of thing we’re thinking about.” Neel said that although there are concerns, the University

would benefit from the new system because it will provide information that has never been available before, including information about which departments generate money and how much each department costs. She said it will also allow the University to understand how much non-revenue-generating departments cost. Frank said the RCM system was used at two universities he has worked at before, including Kent State University, where he implemented the system as provost. He said people often become nervous. “It’s a new system, everybody’s nervous, they’re all worried that they’re going to go broke or we’re going to lay off people. It’ll all work out,” he said. “We’re a university … we’re not going to stop teaching things we value.”

Guv plans insurance exchange Hot Yoga by Barry Massey

The Associated Press SANTA FE — Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration is moving ahead to establish a state-run clearinghouse to help small businesses and tens of thousands of individuals find affordable health insurance they currently lack. A fight over the exchange, however, could break out in next year’s Legislature. Attorney General Gary King’s office is reviewing whether new legislation is needed to implement a health insurance exchange or whether it can be done as the Republican governor plans, without a change in current law or legislative involvement. The exchange is envisioned as an online shopping center for the uninsured to buy health coverage from a selection of plans offered by insurance companies with benefits tailored to New Mexico. It’s to be ready to enroll people starting next October and under federal law must be fully operating by January 2014. That year, an estimated 55,000 New Mexicans may use it to enroll in an insurance plan. Some states waited for the outcome of the presidential election to make a decision, but New Mexico has been working since last year on an exchange plan. “Overall, we never really wavered from the idea that it needs to be a state exchange,” Human Services Secretary Sidonie Squier said in an interview Tuesday. Under a 2010 law championed by President Barack Obama to expand health care coverage,

Public health

states can run an exchange, leave that task to the federal government or partner with federal health officials. “We wanted to build something that we think is unique to New Mexico and works for New Mexico,” said Squier. A fifth of the state’s population lacks health care, and it’s estimated as many as 250,000 New Mexicans may become eligible to buy health insurance through the exchange between 2014 and 2020.

“We wanted to build something that we think is unique to New Mexico.” ~Sidonie Squier human services secretary Under the federal law, uninsured individuals and families can receive subsidies to reduce the amount they pay for insurance. Small businesses can be eligible for a tax credit to help provide medical coverage for workers. Martinez doesn’t plan to establish a new agency to run the exchange. Instead, the exchange will be operated by the New Mexico Health Insurance Alliance, a nonprofit public corporation established in 1994 to provide access to insurance for small businesses and some individuals. The alliance is funded by an assessment on insurance companies. The state received a $34 million

federal grant for an exchange, with almost $24 million earmarked for a computer system that will be used by uninsured New Mexicans to shop for health plans in the marketplace. The alliance plans to award a contract for the computer system in early January. Squier said the administration doesn’t believe legislation is necessary to implement the exchange because it can be handled through the alliance. However, the attorney general’s office is reviewing whether the Legislature must authorize an exchange and approve changes in law for the alliance to operate it. “We do have some serious concerns,” Phil Sisneros, a spokesman for King, said Wednesday. Martinez vetoed an exchange proposal approved by the Democratic-controlled Legislature last year. She said the measure was premature. State Sen. Dede Feldman, an Albuquerque Democrat, said the alliance’s governing board needs more consumer and employee representation rather than being tilted in favor of the insurance industry. There also are questions whether the alliance’s current mission focuses on a much narrower segment of uninsured individuals than the exchange must handle. Most of the alliance’s board is appointed by the governor. House Republican Leader Tom Taylor of Farmington said Martinez can fix any problems by selecting more consumer representatives for the board. “I think we’re in fine shape,” said Taylor.

Vote frequently to get policymakers’ attention Editor, Some of us believe in the strength of our vote and how we contribute to American democracy. Some others don’t. Some others don’t care, a different kind of don’t. As part of the recent election, New Mexico Civic Engagement Partnership, a local domestic nonprofit, in collaboration with UNM students, conducted an exit poll of 198 voters at UNM on Nov. 6. We wanted to learn about the effectiveness of the media before an election and we wanted to understand the voters’ “comfort zone” in terms of candidates and issues. Although nationally, young adults make up 21 percent of eligible voters, and nationally the turnout of this age group was decisive, it was smaller than in 2008. At UNM, the average voter between the ages of 18 and 29 is 20 years old. The vast majority of voters polled are from New Mexico, and 60 percent are women. Ethnicity is predominately Hispanic, and 66 percent of those polled had been contacted in some way up to five times before voting. The dominant source of information for this population is the Internet, followed closely by television. Ninety-four percent felt comfortable about candidates and issues before voting. Interestingly, 70 percent were not eligible to vote in 2008. Of the 52 percent eligible to vote in 2010, only 39 percent did so. This is significant, given the huge shortfall of voters in New Mexico during the 2010 election. The young adult voter in New Mexico cannot risk “invisibility” with candidates and policymakers. Too much is at stake, and there are major concerns in that population about student loan rates, health care, the Lottery Scholarship, education and getting a viable job right out of college. Oftentimes it’s the lack of follow-up that impacts these concerns, but voting does count. Bottom line: Young adults think about their vote almost as much as older voters, but they respond differently to media. Voters between the ages of 18 and 20 are not as aware of issues and candidates, and do no consider themselves engaged with the process of staying informed and actually voting. There is a lot of work to do before 2016. Joe’L Trujillo and Cindy Nava New Mexico Civic Engagement Partnership

Internet conference smells fishy by Alexandra Swanberg

Each country has its own policy on how free the Internet should be, but the outcome of a conference in Dubai next month might change that. I will speculate for most of this article as to the repercussions of an international organization taking control of the Internet, so before I do, here is a site with a growing list of official documentation, including proposals from attending countries and regional representatives, concerning what those countries and representatives think be done with the Internet: wcitleaks.org At the World Conference on International Telecommunications, representatives to the United Nations will discuss the International Telecommunication Regulations, which date back to 1988. The Department of Economic and Social Affairs, an organ of the UN, published a news release on Nov. 6, stating, “Over 2 billion people are now connected to Internet but digital divide remains wide.” The article describes current Internet use and the gap in how people across the world are able to use it. Folks in the United States can see news, social media sites, Wikipedia and some of the fringier offerings that are there if they dig deep enough. Not every population enjoys every treasure the Internet holds, and the news release included the following to dispel the rumors that the UN would be controlling the Internet: “‘The current International Telecommunication Regulations set the stage for the mobile revolution and the information society — and we are confident that the 2012 ITRs will help usher in the knowledge society,’ the Secretary-General of the UN International

Telecommunication Union (ITU), Hamadoun Touré, told participants at the Forum. ‘Simply put, WCIT-12 is about putting information and communication technologies in the hands of all the world’s people.’ Concerning WCIT and the Internet, Touré described as ‘ridiculous’ misleading stories about the ITU or the UN ‘taking over the Internet.’” I would like to think this is the case. One only needs to consider the significant effect social media had in expediting the Arab Spring, or how people tried to use it in the United States to lend momentum to the nationwide Occupy movements. However, the people attending this conference include leaders of countries that do not value freedom the way people in the United States do. Some will argue that international organizations are a tool to facilitate harmonious international relations, but because politics inevitably involves power plays, I am reluctant to think this conference will result in a decision for the benefit of all. I received an email on Tuesday from Vint Cerf, a vice president and chief Internet evangelist for Google. Of the conference he said, “The world’s governments will meet behind closed doors to discuss the future of the Internet. Some governments want to use this meeting to increase censorship and regulate the Internet. Learn more about what’s at stake at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU): Google.com/TakeAction. A free and open world depends on a free and open Internet. And a free and open Internet depends on you.” He also included the Twitter hashtag #FreeAndOpen, if you care to follow the movement. At the website he lists, you can pledge your support for a free and open Internet, although I’m not sure how

Follow the grapevine online when searching any keyword associated with event, and you’ll find most people are talking about the negative repercussions of taking Internet control from the hands of nonprofit organizations with no government relations and handing it over to representatives from countries all over the world. Anybody abusing power and mistreating the people they rule should rightly be afraid of the Internet. Where would we be without the video from Mother Jones of Mitt Romney badmouthing nearly half of all Americans? Where would we be without WikiLeaks? When the Internet is in the hands of the powerful, it will be all too tempting for them to smear the transparency the public has been trying to establish. We need to know what’s happening in our world, and though there is no one truth we will find on the Internet, regardless of the source, it is important to have all information available to us so that we can make the most informed decisions. This is the foundation of a healthy democracy. I sympathize with the more optimistic members of the UN who are just trying to allow other populations to begin to access the breadth of information available online in other parts of the world. I want everyone to enjoy what we are so privileged to have at our fingertips in the States and elsewhere. I’ve just completely lost my faith in politicians, who have proven over and over again that they will act according to what will benefit them rather than what best serves the public interest. There has to be another way to make sure that others enjoy this privilege, and it does not start with government control over the Internet.

Owens continued to efficiently distribute the ball throughout the second half. She finished the game with 10 assists and three turnovers. Owens’ 10 assists are the most since Mandi Moore’s 11 assists versus Wyoming in the 2003-04 season. “Lefty point guards are the best,” Sanchez said. “I think (Durbin) likes the fact that she doesn’t have to score 20 points a game for us to be successful. It has to be balanced for us to be successful, and that’s what we’re going to do.” The Lobos’ next game will be against North Texas in the first round of the New Mexico Thanksgiving Tournament on Friday.

UNM men’s soccer head coach Jeremy Fishbein said he’s fine with the Lobos being the underdog against Application available online at: asunm.unm.edu Connecticut in the third round of the NCAA tournament. Associated Students of the University of New Mexico Student Union “We got a great challenge ahead of us,” he said. “I think one of the exciting 1016, MSC03 2210, 1 University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New things is that we’re the underdog. In Mexico 87131-0001 our mind we’re not the underdog, but it’s a little bit different pressure.” Phone: 505.277.5528, Fax: 505.277.5287 UNM (17-3-1) will take on the University of Connecticut (16-3-1) on Sunday at Morrone Soccer Stadium in Storrs, Conn. UConn has won 37 straight home games since it lost in the 2009 Big East tournament. Following a demanding 3-1 victory versus Virginia in the second round last Sunday, UNM must deal with a top-level team for the first time since defeating then-No. 2 UCLA on Aug. 24, Fishbein said. “I really like our chances moving forward in getting to play a great team in UConn It’s a pretty intriguing go ” he…said. matchup, s o Senior lo goalie Victor Rodriguez will ob return o l lineup following g tobthe osstarting go os his one-game NCAA suspension o s o l ofgolast year’s third-round bo lob gbecause o s against o l s NCAAogame - South Florida. g

Rodriguez has not surrendered a goal in the eight games since Oct. 12. The Las Cruses native said he has had no difficulty getting back in the groove of being a starter. “I’m prepared. If I had to play today, I could do it. I haven’t lost any confidence in myself,” he said. “It’s a different challenge playing against some of the top players in the nation. I can’t wait.” UNM hopes to extend its NCAA tournament run further than in 2011, when it reached the third round before losing to South Florida 6-5 in a shootout. The last time the Lobos passed the Sweet 16, the squad made the finals against Maryland and lost 1-0 on Dec. 11, 2005. Senior midfielder Levi Rossi said the experience of last season’s tournament loss will only assist the Lobos in high-pressure situations. “Last year was the first time we were a high-profile team trying to live up to high expectations. We were never in this situation before,” he said. “This year, we’ve been there and we know what it’s going to be like. We know what the atmosphere will be like and what a shootout is like in the Sweet 16.” The Huskies’ top players include junior forward Mamadou Diouf, who has delivered 14 goals this season, and

Big East goalie of the year Andre Blake with a .5 goals against average and 11 shutouts in 2011. Fishbein said Connecticut is unlike any opponent New Mexico has faced this season. “Their attack is very good, very similar to ours. That being said, they haven’t scored many goals and they’re a hard team to figure out,” he said. “They have a fantastic goalie. He has great range and athleticism, but that being said, I think he’s too aggressive sometimes. You can’t let his athleticism become a factor.” Rossi said although the team will miss the Duke City, there are some benefits to playing a NCAA tournament game on the road. “I like that we have zero distractions and we only focus on soccer,” he said. “Our crowd is helpful, but sometimes there is pressure when there is a lot of support. I really like that we will play at nearly sea level coming from high altitude. I think it can be an advantage.”

Lobos aim to break .500 in season closer vs CSU Carrier may beat UNM season rushing record

by Thomas Romero-Salas sports@dailylobo.com @ThomasRomeroS

A battle of two rebuilding sub.500 teams doesn’t usually make for an important football game, but don’t tell that to first-year UNM head coach Bob Davie. “They’re (Colorado State) trying to get their program established, and make no doubt about it, it’s a big football game,” he said at his final weekly press conference of the 2012 season on Tuesday. UNM faces CSU on Saturday in both teams’ season finale. The Lobos stand 4-8, 1-6 MWC and are on a five-game losing streak, while Colorado State is 3-8, 2-5 and has won two of its last four games after starting the year 1-6. First-year CSU head coach Jim McElwain said he’s impressed by the way Davie has turned around the Lobo football program. “This will be a game versus a team that has done an amazing

job. You watch how New Mexico is playing under coach Davie,” McElwain said. “I really am looking forward to Saturday’s game.” UNM has the fourth-best rushing attack in the nation, averaging 314.9 yards per game. Junior running back Kasey Carrier has tallied 1,410 rushing yards, and is 41 yards away from breaking the UNM all-time season single mark set by DonTrell Moore in 2003. “It does mean something to me; just coming from what we’ve been doing in the past, it means a lot,” Carrier said. “But it starts up front with the offensive lineman because they’ve come a long way as a unit.” Davie said the offensive line is the main reason for the team’s rushing success. “Throwing the ball isn’t really an option,” he said, “and not only are you not doing it in a new scheme, you’re doing it with guys who didn’t have a whole lot of success running the football, you’re doing it in front of a whole ball park that knows you’re running the football.” The Rams rank 104th in

the nation in rushing defense, allowing an average of 208.4 yards per game. CSU gave up a season-high 459 rushing yards in a 42-21 loss at Air Force on Sept. 29, but McElwain said the team has defended the run better since that game. “One of the things our guys have done is taking to heart what it means to do your job and be responsible for your assignment and your discipline of playing it,” he said. “The attack we’re seeing this week causes you to make sure you’re sound and disciplined. This is a great challenge because they’re doing a great job on offense.” CSU counters with a twoheaded rushing attack with junior Chris Nwoke and freshman Donnell Alexander combining to average 124.5 yards per game. Davie said the toughest part about facing the Rams will be their home-field advantage. “The biggest thing that concerns me is that they’ve been so good at home — they’ve won two Mountain West games at home,” he said.

Adria Malcolm / @adriamalcolm / Daily Lobo Kasey Carrier looks up to see the referee’s call after Nevada player tackled him on Saturday at University Stadium. Carrier needs 41 more rushing yards to break the single-season rushing record.

Paradise Jam champs net Alford’s 130th win by J.R. Oppenheim

assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim

It’s difficult to call the fourth game of the season a “must-win situation,” but the UNM men’s basketball team made an early statement against a nationally ranked foe late Monday night. Junior guard Kendall Williams scored 15 points during the U.S. Virgin Islands Paradise Jam championship game, leading the Lobos to a 66-60 victory over No. 21 Connecticut of the Big East Conference. He had 52 points and 11 assists during the tournament’s three games, earning MVP honors in the process. “I just wanted to carry some leadership with this team. I’m glad it was noticed,” Williams said. “I was able to distribute a little bit really with the turnovers down. An MVP is a personal award that reflects the team.” UNM has won 12 of its last 13 regular-season contests against teams in the six power conferences — Big East, ACC, Big 10, Big 12, SEC and Pac-12. The Big East is considered one of the best basketball conferences in the nation. The Lobos handed UConn its first loss of the young season. Steve Alford reached victory No. 130 as UNM’s head coach, becoming the school’s alltime wins leader during his first six years of tenure. He has 438 wins in 22 years as a head coach, and he has a 13-6 record against ranked teams while with the Lobos. “We told the team today during walkthroughs that our program has done a lot in a very short time,” Alford said on Monday. “One hundred thirty wins to date — we’ve won a lot of games.” The Lobos (4-0) overcame early struggles and a poor shooting percentage en route to the title. They finished the game with a season-low 39.6 percent from the field, hitting just 19 of 48 shots. UNM missed its first nine field goal attempts, a skid snapped by guard Jamal Fenton at the 13:11 mark with four points. The senior

role player saw his first action of the season in the tournament finale after serving a threegame suspension for an NCAA impermissible benefits violation. After the sluggish start, UNM held a 3027 lead at halftime and led by as many as 10 points in the second half. After UNM’s holding a 53-44 lead, UConn (4-1) scored 11 straight points to regain the lead at 55-53. A 3-pointer by sophomore guard Hugh Greenwood kickstarted a 9-0 run and gave the Lobos a lead they did not relinquish. Much like the season opener against Davidson, free-throw shooting came through when needed. UNM did not miss a foul shot against UConn, sinking all 21 attempts. Through four games, the Lobos are shooting 84.6 percent from the line. Of Williams’ 15 points, 13 came in the second half after missing his first five attempts. Junior guard Tony Snell joined Williams on the alltournament team after he scored 11 points in the final. Greenwood scored a season-high 12 points with seven rebounds, while sophomore center Alex Kirk netted 10 points. The Lobo bench came up big with 18 points, shooting 5 of 9 from the floor. The bench also pulled down 10 rebounds, provided three assists and made two steals. “That’s what we hang our hats on: We’re deep. We play together,” Greenwood said. “When one guy is having a rough night, we can count on the other guys to keep that fire up. Everyone contributes.” UConn had three players reach double figures, led by junior guard Shabazz Napier’s 23 points. Sophomore guard Ryan Boatright added 12 points, and freshman guard Omar Calhoun netted 10 points. From the field, the Huskies made 23 of 54 (42.6 percent). UNMreachedthetournamentchampionship game with earlier wins over Illinois-Chicago and George Mason. UConn defeated Wake Forest

The Lobos won the Paradise Jam on Monday by defeating Connecticut 66-60 in the championship game. and Quinnipiac in earlier rounds. The Lobos return to The Pit this week for a four-game home stand, beginning Friday against Idaho. Action resumes Sunday against Portland and Tuesday against Mercer. “I’m really happy for us. It’s a great start to the year to get a tournament under our belt,” Williams said. “Now we get to go home for a couple games at The Pit.”
