At their last inspection, three restaurants near campus received at least four health code violations. Perico’s on Yale received an “immediate closure” notice, but the burrito restaurant’s permit was reinstated the same day. The New Mexico Environment Department mandated the closure because food was stored at improper temperatures. The NMED’s manual for food service and food processing regulations requires perishable food to be stored at or below 41 degrees, or above 140 degrees. Also, coldheld food can reach a temperature of 45 degrees for up to two hours, but after that it must be discarded. At Perico’s, a health inspector found eggs at 68 degrees, beef at 54 degrees, and sour cream at 52 degrees. There were other temperature violations as well. Representatives from the New Mexico Environment Department do not notify a restaurant before inspection. Herman Aragon, a manager at Perico’s, said the food was at the wrong temperature because it had just come in from the distributor, who stored the food improperly. “Some of our food was not at temperature … we got it not at temperature through our distributor,” he said. “We had just got our order
Seven members of the Bridge slate filed a contest of election on Friday, but on Sunday they rescinded their complaints. “We think as a slate that any infraction should be addressed … and if it is not addressed, in the future it is not corrected,” said Travis Maestas, a Bridge slate member. Yet Maestas said the Bridge slate wouldn’t have had enough evidence to present a strong case against the BAM! slate, whose members swept the election last week. Eight of the 10 members on the BAM! slate are Resident Advisers. Three complaints were initially filed. The undergraduate student government’s election commission threw out one, and on Sunday the group was set to hear testimony about two specific instances where the BAM! slate allegedly campaigned too close to polling places. The Bridge slate complained that members of the BAM! slate could not hold ASUNM Senate seats

because residence hall advisers cannot simultaneously serve in student government, according to the Resident Adviser handbook. Election Commissioner Brian Moore said the election commission threw out that complaint because the discrepancy was not under ASUNM jurisdiction. ASUNM does not prohibit senators from also serving as resident advisers. The ResLife Web site prohibits holding both positions, but Patrick Call, director of Residence Life and Student Housing, said the clause on the Web site has been misinterpreted. “I know that there’s a piece in our agreement with them that talks about that, but it is really intended for folks if they want to run for ASUNM president or vice president,” he said. Call said the clause is also meant to restrict people from serving as committee chair members. The revised version of the ResLife Web site clarifies the distinction, Call said.

pounds of red boiled potatoes, 30 pounds of mashed potatoes, three gallons of green chili sauce and two gallons of charro beans because they were stored at improper temperatures, according to the health code violation report. Since the inspection, Chartwells terminated Donna Provost, thenmanager of La Posada. Rudy Simchak, resident district manager of Chartwells, said Provost’s termination had nothing to do with the inspection but came as a result of a management restructuring last summer. Simchak said La Posada routinely discards 40 to 60 pounds of the 1,500 pounds of food they deal with daily. “If for some reason — especially at the end of the day — any product (is) left on the line, we don’t chill it and reserve it. It’s trash,� he said. Simchak said that the food is composted, not thrown away. Also, Simchak said the dining hall’s size contributed to the large number of health code violations. He said most other restaurants don’t have as large a kitchen or as many serving stations, which reduces the risk of breaking health regulations. “It’s a combination of size and the inspection at that point and time,� he said. “If you have the same violation at three locations, you have three violations.� Simchak said management hasn’t heard of student illness resulting from

news in brief La Posada meals. “We throw away food that could, anyway, be harmful to the recipient of the food. We always side on the side of caution,â€? he said. “We feed 8,000 to 9,000 meals a day, and (there is) no mention of illness there.â€? Each of the La Posada violations were first-time offenses, which Simchak said is significant. “The important thing is that they’re not repeat violations,â€? he said. The NMED issued four citations to the Sonic in the SUB. Three of the violations were repeat violations. Shredded cheese in the hot dog station was 19 degrees warmer than recommended, according to the health code violations report. The violation was corrected on site. Thomas Cruse, Sonic manager, said the cheese used on Sonic hot dogs is genetically modified, so holding it at the NMED’s required 45 degrees is unnecessary. “(The health inspector) has got a thing about the cheese, and technically ‌ for Sonic, we don’t have any requirements per se to keep the cheese cold, because bacteria won’t grow on it,â€? Cruse said. The repeat violations were issued first three years ago, and the other two were for a damaged counter below the soft drink dispenser and for dirty walls in the front of the eatery. Cruse said the damaged counter has to be fixed by University officials and the walls are cleaned regularly.

in that morning, and some of the stuff wasn’t at temperature.� Aragon said the restaurant has not had problems with its distributor since the incident. The NMED ordered Perico’s to close immediately because its walkin freezer was 7 degrees too warm, but Perico’s management adjusted the settings, allowing them to reopen. Aragon said Perico’s permit was reinstated so quickly that the restaurant didn’t lose any business. “We were not actually closed down,� he said. “It was within an hour. We weren’t even open for business for that day yet.� Perico’s also received a citation for evidence of insects, and Aragon said the restaurant has taken steps to fix the problem.

WASHINGTON— A bruising debate on health care awaits the Senate after Thanksgiving now that the historic legislation has cleared a key hurdle over the opposition of Republicans eager to inflict a punishing defeat on President Barack Obama. The bill would extend coverage to roughly 31 million who lack it, crack down on insurance company practices that deny or dilute benefits and curtail the growth of spending on medical care nationally.

NEW YORK— A subway passenger stabbed to death in front of horrified straphangers has been identified as 36-year-old Dwight Johnson of Brooklyn. Authorities say some 30 passengers watched as Gerardo Sanchez of the Bronx stabbed Johnson at around 2 a.m. Saturday in an argument over a seat. Police say the passengers were trapped with the knife-wielding attacker and his victim until the train arrived at the station at Seventh
Avenue and 53rd Street.
The second complaint alleged that BAM! members campaigned inside Johnson Center, which is off limits, on election day. Arman Salehian said he saw a BAM! member inside Johnson Center, but because of a scheduling conflict, he couldn’t make it to the meeting on Sunday to give his testimony. Maestas said this is one of the reasons for withdrawing the contestation. “One of our slate members saw them crossing the line, but that person couldn’t show up because they had work,� Maestas said. “They couldn’t really get off of work without risking their position with their employer.� Moore said it would have been inconvenient, but the Bridge slate had other options to turn in a testimony besides in person. He said the Bridge candidate could have submitted a written affidavit.
Sulima said that another witness, who is also a member of the Bridge slate, didn’t have adequate evidence against the BAM! slate. “We could say it happened, but they could also say, ‘What evidence do you have?’� Sulima said. “And in that case we didn’t have any. We didn’t feel like we had enough evidence for it to be a significant complaint.� BAM! member Melissa Trent said the BAM! slate would have welcomed any complaint because they had nothing to hide. “I don’t believe that they held any weight,� Trent said. “The claims were against our volunteers, and we had some really fantastic volunteers. And we ran the best campaign we could. We ran as clean as we could.�
SANTA CRUZ, Calif.— Officials at the University of California, Santa Cruz say dozens of protesters who were occupying the university’s main administrative building have ended their protest. Campus spokesman Jim Burns says the nearly 70 or so protesters who had occupied the university’s Kerr Hall since Thursday in a demonstration over fee hikes walked out of the building around 8 a.m. Sunday.

According to the new entry, resident advisers shall “assume no major offer or chairperson positions in campus activities, campus student government or residence hall community associations.� Another complaint alleged that BAM! campaign workers stepped inside designated 25-foot barriers at the Student Residence Center, which campaigners aren’t allowed to go into. The Bridge slate said it had sources that witnessed BAM! members violating the rules, but the witnesses didn’t want to testify for fear of retribution, said Bridge slate member Shauna Sulima. “They were not comfortable appearing at the trial because they are residents and they didn’t want (the RAs) to be against them,� Sulima said. “So, since they do live in the dorms, it would have been uncomfortable for them.�

Also, the NMED gave notice last year for “blood and food debris on the bottom of the reach-in freezer“ to Ho ho’s, a Chinese food restaurant on Yale. A Ho ho’s manager declined to comment about this violation. And finally, Fei’s CafĂŠ, on Central across from the University, had four violations, two of which were labeled “critical.â€?

Sustainability from page 2 instance, if you see poison ivy in the woods you often see the antidote close by. DL: How can someone living in an urban area practice permaculture? MS: Harvesting and cleaning your own water is one way. I’ve built a constructive wet plan and I take rain water from my roof and I take gray water from my house and run it through a series of filters and it comes out as good as drinking water. Working with 1,000 square feet area and an inch of rain, you can collect 630 gallons of water. DL: What is the cost of collecting and cleaning your own water? MS: I paid $750 to construct the system to get the rain off my roof and built a whole gray water system for $2,400.
DL: What accomplishments, in terms of sustainability, have you been a part of on campus? MS: We built a bio-diesel processor, a small water catchment system at the Department of Education and brought the first farmers’ market on campus. DL: Where do you see the Sustainability Program going? MS: I see it turning into a major where students can be prepared for viable ‘green jobs.’ Next semester, I am teaching a course called Practicum for Campus and Community, where students will build something very practical like making green dorms or bringing back the farmers’ market. -Shaun Griswold

LETTER Techno Guy’s music does not make any political statements Editor, What makes Techno Guy think the rest of us want to be exposed to his type of music in the first place? How arrogant is that? I can’t imagine invading his space with my music. A boom box is about as political as a car radio. (Do you ever wonder why drivers never blare classical music?) I think he must mean a soapbox, not a boom box, is political. Goo-o Burbank! Diana Huntress Daily Lobo reader
LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS: Were immigration officials right to arrest a UNM graduate student while he was on campus and immediately deport him? Out of 179 total responses
Yes. He was undocumented so he 47% didn’t have the right to be here. Yes. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials should be able to 21% arrest people regardless. No. People shouldn’t be deported without having time to settle their 13% accounts and make arrangements with friends or co-workers. No. Undocumented immigrants shouldn’t have to fear arrest while 19% they’re in an educational setting.
THIS WEEK’S POLL: LETTERS
How seriously do you take reported health code violations at restaurants? Any infraction turns me off. Restaurants should be sterile to be healthy. Otherwise, shut it down. I prefer to give the restaurant enough time to fix its violations, and then I assume it’s safe to eat there again. Health code officials hold restaurants up to strict guidelines. It’s in a restaurant’s best interest not to get patrons sick, so even if the restaurant has infractions, chances are it’s nothing too serious. People rarely die from health code violations. I don’t really care as long as the food’s good.

Line judges to blame for Lobos losing to Portland Editor, The end of the great Men’s NCAA tournament soccer match Thursday night was a ridiculous spectacle. I could not believe it; we fans were completely in shock. UNM outplayed Portland all game long. At the last second one or both line judges failed to call offside when the Portland forward was obviously offside. That one bad call
Absence of Techno Guy makes campus a more pleasant place Editor, I have found my walk past the SUB on my way to classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays are less stressful than they have been in the recent past. First, I assumed there must be a simple explanation for my calm demeanor. I must be having great bicycle rides in the mornings, or I’m not too behind on my homework. How I love walking around on the beautiful campus when the sun’s out, people are happy, smiling and friendly. What? I can’t hear you! Hold on, let me turn down the music. That’s it! I haven’t been barraged by the unnecessarily loud, disagreeable noise on my way to class in a couple of weeks. Techno Guy must have been the culprit of the distracting moments
resulted in the “winning goal.” The UNM defender had correctly executed an offside trap, but then the line judges spoiled the whole game by missing this important event. It’s just not fair. I am a very experienced soccer spectator, both live and on TV. I also played a lot of soccer in my youth. I was sitting in the stands near midfield in the perfect spot to have a good perspective on the offside event. It was quite obvious to me, but no call was made. I think it was more obvious than some of the offside calls that officials have made in professional matches. These things happen quickly, so how can I
be certain it was a bad non-call? I think we need to look at the video of the end of the match again to make sure. Can the Daily Lobo obtain video from this soccer match and examine the end? Could you post just the last minute of the game on the Internet so everyone can see what happened? I think the UNM players at least deserve some proof of what really happened, regardless of the official result.
of anxiety in between my classes every Tuesday and Thursday. What an amazing relief to hear the birds in the trees again and to be able to stroll to class calmly instead of dreading my usual shin-splitting, marathon walk past the SUB in order to keep my wits about me. It is one thing to want to “broaden people’s perception of music and inspire New Mexico’s musical culture to develop.” I agree with this notion. But it is not ethically justifiable to disregard each individual’s choice and right to take classes, work, or even visit a state university campus without ongoing offensive background music. I choose to listen to all different kinds of music from underground hip-hop to old-school country and western, jazz, rock and roll, salsa, Balkan and blues, among others. There is a time and place for all genres of music, so I’m not going to close my mind to any of the broad categories. Our University serves nearly 26,000 students, employs roughly 1,500 faculty and
numerous staff — ranging in ages, backgrounds and cultures — all of whom have equal rights. I’m sure many people at UNM are interested in musical diversity, and probably appreciate the chance to hear various kinds of music. Our campus is public, after all, and this means it is open to everyone. However, there is a protocol for setting up displays, having talks and making speeches, as well as giving away free food at UNM. The standards of each formality must be upheld in order to protect the University’s learning environment. Just think how much more effective you can “spread your vibe” if you do so in a respectful manner. More of us might be more accepting of Techno Guy’s electronica if we knew when to expect it on campus, where we can go to listen, and for how long we could anticipate the show to last.

Indonesia suffers deadly ferry accidents by Ali Kotarumalos The Associated Press
JAKARTA, Indonesia— Rescuers saved more than 240 people aboard a crowded Indonesian passenger ferry that sank Sunday in rough waters off Sumatra island, but 29 people have died and at least 17 others were missing, officials said. A second ferry ran aground nearby, but all its passengers were said to be safe. Indonesian ferry accidents have killed hundreds of people in recent years. Boats are often overcrowded, and safety regulations are poorly enforced. The vast country spans more than 17,000 islands, and boats are a popular and relatively cheap form of transportation. The Dumai Express 10 sank in stormy weather 90 minutes into an inter-island trip from Batam to Dumai in Riau, a province off Sumatra island in western Indonesia. The area is about 600 miles (900 kilometers) northwest of Jakarta.
The ship sank about 30 minutes after huge waves damaged its bow and water started seeping in, according to a report from the ship’s captain, said Lt. Col. Edwin, the local navy chief. A survivor, who only gave his name as Riki, said he escaped from the ship by breaking a window and was rescued by fishermen, the official news agency Antara reported. “It was too fast ... and the ship crew did not tell us about the situation at all,” he said. “We only managed to get out after I broke the glass window on the right side. That was the only way because there were many people jostling for the doors.” He said he saw some passengers jump into the sea without life jackets. Passing boats picked up dozens and took them to nearby islands for medical treatment. Local television news showed two survivors, wearing life jackets, floating on the water. High waves made the rescue
operation difficult. At its peak, there were at least nine ships and several fishing boats searching the choppy sea. Rescue teams found 29 bodies, including those of two children, according to the latest reports, said Rustam Pakaya, the head of the Health Ministry’s crisis center. He said at least 17 others were believed to be missing. Some 245 survivors were rescued. Authorities called off search and rescue operations after nightfall, said Yasin Kosasih, a local police chief coordinating the rescue mission. “Considering the weather conditions and the dark, we ... will resume the search tomorrow morning,” Kosasih said. There was some uncertainty about how many people were on board the ferry when it sank. Police and navy officials said the ferry manifest listed 228 passengers, including 15 children, and in addition, there were 13 crew, but the

probably seemed like the Spanish Armada. Forced to walk the plank by the media, Locksley was drowning amid a sea of dysfunction and salty criticism lobbed at him from every angle imaginable — until the Rams threw him a life jacket on Saturday. Regardless, he, and more importantly the players, came through against the Rams. The offense looked the best it had all year, amassing 467 yards, 270 on the ground. Running backs Kasey Carrier and Demond Dennis looked better than advertised. Dennis rushed for 133 yards on just seven carries, a whopping average of 19 yards per carry. Carrier, who scrapped his redshirt this year to fill in when Dennis got injured earlier in the season, dashed for 88 yards and made several CSU defenders whiff. “This is a glimpse of what it’s like when we are executing and hitting on all cylinders,” Locksley said. “To me, the only stat that matters is the ‘W’ or the ‘L’ at the
end of the day.” The defense, too, came up with key, game-changing stops. James Aho was money, instead of Monopoly money, like he was a week ago. Still, the Lobos finally got their missing ingredient: a sprinkle of luck. Down 27-26, the Lobos forced CSU into a three-and-out. Disaster almost struck again — in which case President Obama would have needed to declare a state of emergency. CSU punter Pete Kontodiakos shanked a 27-yard punt which glanced off an unabated Lobo blocker. This time, the Lobos recovered — the rest is history. Locksley was doused with Gatorade, and despite frigid temperatures, looked warm, his heart no doubt heated by inspiration and pride. Surprisingly, Locksley didn’t well up at the podium. Though it wasn’t a bid at an Earth-stopping, axis-changing upset of then-No. 22 BYU, UNM
desperately needed this win over CSU — for the players and for the coaches. You could hear it in the voice of quarterback Donovan Porterie, who overcame a late-game interception that capsized the Lobos’ fourth-quarter lead from 23-21 to 27-23. All of the miscues — for once, they didn’t matter. This victory, Porterie said, is “somewhere around like the bowl victory for the first time in like 50 years. It was just a very emotional night for us.”
The self-same moment Locksley begged; And from his neck so free The Albatross fell off, and sank Like lead into the sea. “I’m hoping this is the first victory in a long career as a head coach,” Locksley said. Excerpts were taken from Taylor Coleridge’s poem, “Rime of the Ancient Mariner.”
Team wins all 3 games in weekend tournament by Mario Trujillo Daily Lobo
It was a weekend of threes for the UNM men’s basketball team. Three games, three wins — over Nicholls State, Louisiana Tech and then Miami of Ohio on Sunday — three players on the All-Tournament team. Throughout the UNM-hosted Travelers Tournament, the Lobos put up three 80-point games, winning by double digits all weekend. In Sunday night’s tournament wrap up, the Lobos blew out Miami of Ohio University 85-60 to finish off a perfect 3-0 weekend. “To have such lopsided wins (over the weekend) speaks volumes for our guys,” said head coach Steve Alford. “We came in after Las Cruces and said it was 120 minutes this weekend — no

On the ensuing kick off, CSU returner Alex Square had the ball knocked loose by UNM defensive back Frankie Solomon. UNM recovered. Nine plays later, Porterie found receiver Quintell Solomon on a 21yard touchdown strike. The score put UNM up 17-7, the Lobos’ largest lead of the season. UNM found its way to the win because of the team’s experience level, Porterie said. “About two or three other times this season we have been in similar situations,” he said. “This week a lot of guys stepped up and came up big for us and made a lot of plays for us down the stretch. We are leaving University Stadium as winners.”

Aho was 3-of-3 in field goals against Colorado State, and the last was the most crucial. Locksley said he never doubted Aho for a second. “James is a great kicker,” he said. “I don’t agree with the categorization that he struggled all year. He had a rough game last week. But he has made some big kicks for us early on. I have the utmost confidence in him.”

Conference. “We got a bunch of kids in there playing hard and doing some good things. We just can’t get everybody on the same page. We continue to do things like line up wrong — drop balls — and it’s our own doing. You get what you deserve.” Later in the first quarter, Porterie was intercepted by CSU defensive back Gerald Thomas with the game tied at 7. However, the Rams couldn’t capitalize on the pick. The senior quarterback would take UNM on another scoring drive in the first half, but not before Aho made his first field goal of the day from 21 yards to give the Lobos a three-point advantage, 10-7.

“To be honest I was not paying attention at all to the drive before the kick,” Aho said. “All I knew is we had gotten the ball back at pretty close range. I went back and grabbed my helmet. I stood back there for a while. I was kind of off in my own world. … To me whenever you pay attention you start over-thinking things, which messes up a lot of things in kickers’ heads.”

practice. Let’s just bust our tales and have a lot of fun.” Junior college transfer Darington Hobson was voted MVP of the tournament. Roman Martinez and Phillip McDonald were selected to the AllTournament team. The Lobos came out in the first half utilizing a zone defense. Both teams worked out of their motion, burning a decent amount of the shot clock before deciding on a shot. Martinez, who had 15 points in Sunday’s game, said the team was just keying on the weaknesses of their opponent. “We do a scouting report before games, and we were just trying to shut down what they were trying to do,” he said. “We try to go out there and play hard defense.

games, you would think we would kind of die down, but we held tough.” The Lobos were marked and precise in the first 10 minutes of the game. And while the shots came slow, the points came fast. Four minutes into the game, the Lobos went on a 14-3 run over the next five minutes, pushing UNM’s lead to 25-10. The Lobos couldn’t miss. They went 9-of-12 from the field, shooting 75 percent 10 minutes in. UNM ended up shooting 53.6 percent from the field to end the half. But as UNM’s shooting faded, the Redhawks’ shooting dipped even lower. By the end of the half, Miami was shooting just 35 percent and an even poorer from the 3-point line. The Lobos led 45-21 at the half. Miami’s Nick Winbush, who scored a game-high 25 points, started off the second half with a commanding dunk. Lobo forward A.J. Hardeman, quick to retaliate, broke free for a dunk of his own on the next play, silencing the Miami players and energizing Lobo fans. Miami went on a 9-4 run to begin the second half. But they were only knocking chips off the huge lead the Lobos amassed in the first half. Soon UNM coasted to a 20-plus point lead for the rest of the game. All 11 Lobo players hit the floor and scored, with four of them — Hardeman, Hobson, Martinez and Chad Adams — scoring in double digits. “As long as we are winning everyone is happy,” said Adams, who scored 13 points for the Lobos. “It doesn’t really matter. Scoring a lot is good but a balanced effort is even better.” Friday’s scoring summary mirrored Sunday’s, with four Lobos hitting double digits. And sandwiched between them was Hobson’s breakout performance on Saturday. Hobson teed off against Louisiana Tech on Saturday, putting up a career-

Tides finally turn after season-long losing streak by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo
It is an ancient Mariner, And he stoppeth one of three. By thy long beard and glittering eye, He stoppeth Mike Locksley. …Day after day, day after day, The Lobos stuck, nor breath nor motion; Ten games in without a win, Mike Locksley’s finally free.
in the same fashion as they did against the Cougars. The quarterback led an opening drive that covered 80 yards on 12 plays and hit wide receiver Victor James in the corner of the end zone to put the Lobos up 7-0 early. The Rams answered with a 67-yard drive, finished by running back John Mosure, who rambled into the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown. Mosure rushed for 179 yards off 27 carries, including two touchdowns. However, CSU head coach Steve Fairchild said he was disgusted with his team’s lack of execution in all three phases of the game. “I was not pleased at all, and we should have won that game,” Fairchild said, whose Rams fell to 3-8 overall and 0-7 in the Mountain West
Curse ye, Colorado State. Curse ye, for ruining the UNM football team’s quest for imperfection. The Rams, entering Saturday’s contest riding a seven-game losing streak — outdone only by the Lobos, who had lost 14 consecutive games dating back to last year — looked like they had swapped uniforms with UNM at University Stadium. (Note to Athletics Director Paul Krebs: This slim 29-27 win for the Lobos doesn’t merit a contract extension for Locksley. Just making sure you know.) And now, the Albatross has finally been removed from Locksley’s neck. The Lobos were such easy picking — as dice-able as tomatoes — until Saturday. Well, it was a good run. Ten weeks without having to eat my words? I, like Locksley, have lost about 30 pounds this season as a result. Nope, I’m not going to rain on Locksley’s parade. Credit is due — long overdue, for that matter. See, I’ve been waiting to hand it out all season, Locksley. I’m not that hard to please. No matter how high the tides swelled, or how many of his cohorts fled, the embattled coach continued to fend off what

First win of the season delights head coach and players by Ryan Tomari Daily Lobo
Certain things weren’t meant to be set in stone. 27 CSU For example, an 0-12 season for the UNM football team. The Lobos defeated Colorado State, 29-27, thanks to a redemptive performance by sophomore kicker James Aho, who booted a field goal in the final 12 seconds at University Stadium on Saturday. The perfect kick by Aho ended the Lobos’ bid at imperfection and saved 17 members of the football team’s senior class going winless and losing their last game at home. First-year head coach Mike Locksley, who has had his share of UNM
29
struggles on and off the field this year, was at a loss for words after earning his first victory as a collegiate head coach. “It’s been a long time coming, and it’s been a long year, but as I’ve said many times after some tough losses, I haven’t been more proud of a team than this team, and I’ve been a part of some great teams in my 18 years of coaching,” Locksley said. “I’ve learned as a coach from this team and the character that this team has shown week in and week out, through adversity, through losses, through injuries, losing some key guys. They stuck together and that’s what families do. This team is a family, and we won it together.” Just when Locksley looked primed to get his first win, quarterback Donovan Porterie allowed CSU back into the game.
Up 23-21 and driving, Porterie was baited into a crucial mistake. In the fourth quarter, Porterie was picked off by CSU’s Nick Oppenneer on the Rams’ 3-yard line, and 97 yards later UNM trailed 27-23. But Porterie regained his composure, leading the Lobos into a field goal position twice thereafter, and the last time set up Aho’s game-ending kick. The victory concluded a UNM losing streak which reached 14 games, dating back to the Lobos’ last victory on Oct. 18, 2008, when UNM trounced San Diego State, 70-7, in Albuquerque. Remarkably, the Lobos carried momentum from a hotly contested game against BYU. And this time, the result was different. Porterie and Co. opened the game
Winning field goal redeems kicker by Mario Trujillo Daily Lobo
Boom. Boom. Boom. Let me hear you say Aho! A name scorned last week is now celebrated. A 27-yard field goal in the waning seconds of the Colorado State game may overshadow any sour memory fans had about kicker James Aho. It all but solidified the UNM football team’s first win, a 29-27 thriller, and the first for the Lobos in more than a year. “After it went in, I was just trying to find a way to avoid the big old linemen ambushing me,” Aho said. For the last two weeks, Aho has been a subject of conversation after games — but for vastly different reasons. In a game of horrible luck against BYU last week, Aho knocked three kicks off the goal post — two field goals and one extra point. The extra
point actually bounced off the left and right post before the refs signaled it was no good. Earlier that game, Aho’s kick was blocked, setting the tone for the subsequent mishaps. The Lobos ended up losing by five. It looked like that might have been repeated again on Saturday. The Lobos scored their third touchdown of the night late in the third quarter, going up 23-21. Then Aho’s extra point was batted down. With flashbacks from last week, Aho could have spiraled downward. But the block was a product of breakdowns in blocking protection, and Aho said he got some encouragement from head coach Mike Locksley. “When a coach supports you in what you do and tells you are not wrong in what you do, it helps a lot, especially in the mind of the kicker,” Aho said. Aho has needed that encouragement throughout the season, since
it’s been a streaky ride. He was 9-of17 from field goal range going into Saturday, granted two of them were blocked. And four weeks into the season against NMSU, Aho failed in a similar game-ending situation. With seconds remaining and the Lobos down three, Aho missed a 47yard field goal that would have sent the Rio Grande Rivalry into overtime. Instead of being hoisted in the air by his linemen, Aho crouched motionless on the turf, clutching his head in disbelief. Flash forward to Saturday: With a minute left, Aho was staring down a 49-yard field goal — two yards farther than his NMSU miss and one yard past his season long. Luckily, Kasey Carrier’s 22-yard run set Aho up with a 27-yard chip shot. Carrier’s dash was probably seen by everyone in the stadium except Aho.
