Retirement age, compensation in Legislature’s sights by Charlie Shipley
charlieshipley84@gmail.com The New Mexico State Legislature is to vote in January on a measure that would reduce benefits for retirees and establish a minimum retirement age after the measure passed in legislative committee on Friday. The plan, which reduces retirees’ Cost of Living Adjustment from 2 percent to 1.75 percent and establishes a minimum retirement age of 55, narrowly passed 4-3 during the New Mexico Legislature’s Investment and Pensions Oversight Committee meeting Friday.

The plan now awaits approval by the New Mexico Legislature during the legislative session, which begins Jan. 17. Mary Clark, the UNM Staff Council president, said the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) is a percentage of a retiree’s total retirement compensation that increases yearly to combat inflation, and if the proposed decrease is approved, retirees’ yearly cost of living allowance won’t keep up with rising prices. “I’m very disappointed they changed the COLA,” she said. “That’s not fair.” The proposed decrease means retirees receiving the ERB average allowance of
about $20,000 per year would get an average annual increase of $350 instead of $400, said Jan Goodwin, ERB executive director, to the Albuquerque Journal. ERB members don’t receive their COLA until age 65. The proposal establishes a minimum retirement age of 55. Currently, there is no set age; employees can retire after working for 25 years. The proposal includes a “grandfather period” that would allow current workers already eligible for retirement and those that will be eligible within 10 years of when plan takes effect to be exempt from the minimum age requirement.

ERB Chairwoman Mary Lou Cameron said the proposed changes are intended to improve the ERB’s funding ratio, which measures assets against liabilities. The current ratio is 61 percent. “The proposal is consistent with the board’s goal of improving the retirement plan’s funding ratio to 80 percent by 2030 and 95 percent by 2040, and ensuring its long-term sustainability,” she said in a Nov. 21 statement.

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS: Do you think accusations made by the NAACP that UNM are discriminatory against African Americans is warranted? No. African Americans are proportionally represented on campus and I don’t 59% think they were discriminated against. Yes. African Americans are historically underrepresented at UNM and some- 25% thing needs to change.

THIS WEEK’S POLL: Last week, The 10 former ASUNM senate candidates accused of financial misconduct appealed the punishments issued to them by ASUNM Elections Commission. (See story on page 1) Do you think the group should be exonerated? Yes, their mistake was an honest one, and there’s no reason to keep them out of the senate. No, they lied about their breach of spending. They can’t be trusted. Maybe, the rest of the senators should be allowed to vote but Jordan should be barred. I am indifferent to ASUNM.

Copy editing: because you’re a pedant by Chris Quintana Editor-in-chief
Hey there, grammatically inclined-readers. I just did something wrong in that last sentence. Do you know what it is? If so, you need to be a copy editor. Remember all those former friends who grew to hate you because you always corrected their grammar? Well, you can earn that same scorn from the editors and reporters at the Lobo, but this time you’ll get paid for it. For every night you catch comma splices, dangling modifiers, or misspelled words, you get paid $40. That’s enough to buy some real online friends who won’t hate you because you’re better than them. In fact, that’s the whole perk of the job. You get to be better than everyone else in the whole, wide world. You know how unnecessary gerunds and adverbs are, and you know how useless the people are who use them. And no one, and I mean no one, can take away that sense of self-worth that comes with being right all the time.
The requirements are simple: You just have to be crazy smart, which you probably are because you caught that earlier mistake, you clever grammar freak, you, and take a copy-editing test at our open house tonight. Sure, other people will be there, but I am sure you, dear reader and grammatically aware individual, are better than the rest. And tonight is your chance to prove it to me and the rest of the staff. Bring your Associated Press style guide (available at most major bookstores) and your mad skills, and get ready to settle into your new future of friendlessness. But you don’t need friends when you’re always grammatically correct, do you, dear reader? I have one challenge more for the bravest, looniest, and best of you editors out there. My current copy chief, Craig Dubyk, is leaving for England to study the etymology of the ewok language in his continuing quest to become one of the furry creatures — don’t ask me, copy-editors are weird — which means the paper needs a new copy chief.
The highest scorers will be subjected to another test, and the overall winner will have the option to become copy chief. The position includes a $7 pay raise, a newspaper hat, eternal bragging rights and proof to any doubting friends or family that an English degree does pay. The rest of your life awaits you in a dimly lit back room. Claim what’s yours.

LETTERS Israel Alliance ad full of lies about Palestine, speaker Editor, In Dec. 2 issue of the Daily Lobo, there was an advertisement published by the UNM Israel Alliance on page six. The advertisement depicted the visiting speaker, Dr. Norman Finkelstein, a scholar and author, as a liar. In the advertisement, it says “Think Finkelstein lies about Israel? You can’t believe everything you hear. But you can research the truth for yourself.” The UNM Israel Alliance’s website is printed at the bottom of the advertisement. The site is full of links to one-sided websites that defame Palestinians as savages who are unworthy, which is very racist and insulting. Dr. Finkelstein is a respected scholar and author who continues to dedicate his life to human rights. Both of his parents are survivors of the Holocaust, which he says is precisely why he will not be silent when Israel commits its crimes against the Palestinians. I do agree with one sentiment that appeared in the Israel Alliance advertisement: you can’t believe everything you hear. The media coverage on Israel/Palestinian relations is always biased. They continue to portray Palestinians as terrorists who want to destroy Israel.
What you don’t see in the media is the fact that Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are under military occupation and are being harassed, beaten or even murdered by the Israeli military and government. In Gaza during 2008, the Israeli military made a full assault on the people in Gaza, who are literally trapped because of the apartheid wall built all along the borders. The Israel military completely massacred the people of Gaza, with 1,400 innocent civilians killed, and more than 300 of those civilians were children under the age of 16. I recommend that everyone research this issue and really look beyond biased resources that the Israel Alliance presents. In your research, you will see that there is no balance in this issue. There is the oppressor who is occupying the oppressed, indigenous population. I also recommend everybody come see Dr. Norman Finkelstein speak. There will be plenty of people and resources to help answer your questions. He is speaking this evening in the SUB Ballroom B. The Israel/Palestine issue is not one of religion or politics, it’s about human rights. If you believe in human rights, that freedom and peace should be guaranteed to all, then you will side with the oppressed. Danya Mustafa UNM student
OWS protesters forget history, American values Editor, Those instituting radical change must have outsiders to demonize: called “enemies of the people” by Robespierre during the French Revolution, “kulaks” by the Soviets, and “sufan“ by the Communist Chinese. Today they are called the “1 percent” by Occupy Wall Street. We’re told the 1 percent hold too large a portion of national income. In reality, a number are from the Trial Lawyers Bar and Hollywood, notable supporters of the ‘little people.” Many are business owners; others have inherited wealth; some are nefarious bankers, financiers and Wall Street denizens. The 1 percent is quite a diverse group of people with widely disparate incomes. As I see it, the 1 percent is made up of fellow Americans, only richer. Many contribute greatly to society. Haven’t the Rockefellers, the Mellons, the Gettys, the Norton Simons been sufficiently philanthropic? The U.S. tax system is highly progressive: The top 1 percent make 21 percent of all income earned in the U.S., but pay 38 percent of all federal personal taxes. Seems like a very respectable amount in a country where 45 percent pay no federal personal taxes.
And what Solomonic figure will establish the 1 percent’s “fair share” of taxes and determine when equality is achieved? It seems like it’s been tried in the Soviet Union, Communist China, Zimbabwe, Burma, Cuba and Cambodia. It ends in repression and terror — gulags, laogias, killing fields. Say you, it takes a while to get Communism right — results have been much better in Socialist Europe. Is that why Greece and Italy are de facto bankrupt? They and other European countries are near catastrophic failure — a failure not just monetary, but, as accompanied by rioting, increasingly destructive and deadly. This income equality thing is not for sissies. But what of those who loudly proclaim “We are the 99 percent?” Resentments have so blinded them they cannot see their birthright. They are “We the People of the United States,” individuals “created equal” and “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights … Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” This equality is glorious, unencumbered and inviolable, providing the freedom and opportunity to realize one’s potential. It is all the equality there need be, and all, in a real world, that there can be. Donald Gluck President of the UNM Conservative Republicans

Toilet paper thieves don’t get off clean An Albuquerque restaurant employee says he’s now seen it all: three men leaving his diner with rolls of toilet paper were nabbed in the parking lot by police. Burgers, Dogs and Wings employee Josh Flannery-Stewart told KOAT-TV that he was immediately suspicious of the men when they came in Saturday because they weren’t talking and appeared “messed up.� The three went into the bathroom and emerged carrying about a dozen rolls of toilet paper. They got in a car in the parking lot, but didn’t get far. Albuquerque police apparently already had the trio under surveillance and quickly surrounded the car and arrested them. The toilet paper was returned to its rightful owner.
Couple arrested for prostitution, drugs ALAMOGORDO — Police in Alamogordo say they arrested a husband and wife on prostitution charges during an undercover operation at an Alamogordo area hotel. Sheriff Benny House told the Alamogordo Daily News that Stephen Pzszkowski, 54, and Julie Darnold, 41, were taken into custody on Friday. The couple was arrested after members of the county’s narcotics enforcement task force followed up on a website advertisement offering sex in exchange for money. Pzszkowski was charged with promoting prostitution and possession of drug paraphernalia. Darnold was charged with prostitution, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Believers said miracle kept old carving safe An ancient cottonwood tree behind an Albuquerque church snapped in half and toppled in high winds, but a carving of Our Lady of Guadalupe inside the tree survived. The tree behind San Felipe de Neri Catholic Church in Albuquerque’s Old Town fell Thursday night. The carving on it was created in 1959 by a soldier who had returned unharmed from the Korean War. The story is that Toby Avila made the carving inside a dying cottonwood to thank Our Lady of Guadal-
upe. Folklore says the tree suddenly came back to life. Some parishioners believe the icon had a hand in that, and in the survival of the carving. Father Dennis Garcia told KRQETV he believes the miracle is that no one was hurt and the church was only mildly damaged.
N.M. pre-teen lured to Idaho by online friend BOISE, Idaho — A 19-year-old Idaho man who met a 12-year-old New Mexico girl while playing an online game and then helped her travel to Idaho for sex has been sentenced to nearly five years in prison. KTVB-TV reported that U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill sentenced Alexander Trowell to four years and nine months in federal prison. Trowell must also pay $25,000 in restitution and attend sex offender treatment. The girl flew to Boise in April, where she met with Trowell. The girl’s mother notified police, who arrested Trowell at his home before the girl was returned to New Mexico. Trowell pleaded guilty in September to the charge of interstate travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual contact with a minor.

Domestic dispute leaves meddler dead POJOAQUE — Authorities in Santa Fe County say two men who tried to intervene in a domestic dispute were stabbed by a man who was later captured. County sheriff ’s officials say 21year-old Victoriano Gonzales of Santa Fe was stabbed in the neck and died after trying to stop the dispute on Friday night. Another man also was stabbed but is expected to survive. Sheriff Robert Garcia says the two men were at a trailer park in Pojoaque when they witnessed the domestic dispute. A woman told deputies she was being assaulted by 31-year-old Adrian Gonzales. Gonzales fled in a car that was spotted on Interstate 25 between Bernalillo and Albuquerque early Saturday. He was arrested on murder and aggravated battery charges. He is not related to the man who was killed.

Mention New Mexican cuisine and mouths start watering. Giant breakfast burritos, plates of enchiladas, tacos and even cheeseburgers — all laced with green chile or drenched in red. New Mexico’s chile peppers have woven their way into the state’s cultural identity, and their distinct flavor has been adopted by palates as far away as Korea. But some are worried about the future of New Mexico’s signature crop. Labor costs, relentless plant diseases and competition from cheap imports have combined to put the chile industry in a steep decline. Scientists at New Mexico State University are helping through a series of efforts aimed at unlocking the genetic mysteries of red and green chile, but that has some pepper purists fired up. The thought of genetically engineering chile has galvanized a group of seed conservationists and others who are sympathetic to the national protests targeting corporate greed and economic inequality. Unlike the Occupy Wall Street movement, however, Occupy Green/Red Chile is on a simple, focused mission: to protect New Mexico’s chile seeds. “Students, teachers, farmers, consumers, mothers and fathers, everyone cares about this because in New Mexico chile isn’t just a food, it’s your culture,� said Jessica Farrell, a UNM student who is participating in the movement. The group is concerned that if scientists develop a genetically engineered pepper to boost the industry, small growers could face patent lawsuits if their crops become cross-contaminated by the new

Labor costs, relentless plant diseases and competition from cheap imports have combined to put the chile industry in a steep decline.
seeds. They’re also worried about a lack of labeling of genetically modified foods and the potential for New Mexico’s traditional varieties to be forever altered. “To secure the long-term protection of the farmers and the protection of consumers in terms of culture, there is no room for a genetically engineered seed,� Farrell said. This is where some farmers, chile processors and researchers disagree. Over the last 20 years New Mexico has seen a 75 percent decline in the number of acres of chile grown. Production per acre has increased by more than 2 tons over the last five years due to breeding and improved growing practices, but the industry is a long way from returning to the glory days when tens of thousands of acres were grown. Jaye Hawkins, executive director of the New Mexico Chile Association, said the state will be in danger of losing its chile, not because of genetic engineering, but because farmers will simply not be able to grow the crop due to the mounting labor challenges and foreign competition. “We’re chipping away at the problems, and this is just one alternative,� she said of the genetic research.
Building the perfect pepper plant — one capable of withstanding rootrotting and leaf-wilting diseases, one with more flavor compounds, one that is taller with easily harvested fruit — has been the focus of researchers at New Mexico State University for decades. Most of the work has been done using traditional plant breeding techniques, but some of the problems have been unsolvable through classic methods, said Paul Bosland, head of the university’s Chile Pepper Institute. While critics argue that genetically modified foods are unnatural, experts say the world would not have the varieties of chile, wheat, potatoes, corn, rice and other vegetables that it has today if it weren’t for the genetic modification that comes naturally from breeding plants with one another. “It’s been 10,000 years for some crops; they don’t even remotely resemble their wild species anymore,� said Pam Ronald, a plant pathologist from the University of California, Davis, who is known for her work with rice. Ronald and others say the difference with genetic engineering is that it’s modern and more precise, and genes from unrelated species can be added to a plant’s genome. “It’s a fine line philosophically, what people will accept, and there are reasons, of course, for not wanting a particular type of crop,� she said. “But if you think about the great issues of our time — sustainability, can we grow more food using less land and less water as resources diminish, can we reduce insecticides — if genetic engineering can enhance the sustainability, then why not use it?�

Barlow leaves with loss, respect
Laurisa Galvan / Daily Lobo Former interim head football coach George Barlow celebrated with his team after the Lobos beat UNLV 21-14 on Nov. 12. Barlow coached his final game for UNM last Saturday against Boise State.
by Nathan Farmer
sports@dailylobo.com George Barlow’s tenure as interim head football coach, and the football team’s season, ended Saturday with a 45-0 blowout loss to No. 7 Boise State. Barlow, who was the assistant coach at UNM for the past three years, took over Sept. 25 after then-head coach Mike Locksley was fired. Barlow finished with a 1-7 record, his only win against UNLV on Nov. 12. “It’s been difficult, but at the same time it’s been fun,� he said. “When you are in my position and want to be a head coach someday, not too many coaches have that opportunity to have a trial run as a head coach.� One bright spot was the performance of senior linebacker Carmen
Messina, who on Saturday played his last game for UNM. Messina moved up to third on the all-time tackles list, passing former Lobo legend Brian Urlacher. Messina ends his Lobo career with a total of 454 tackles. Sophomore defensive lineman Jacori Greer said Barlow assumed the head coaching position during a tumultuous time for the Lobo football program. “He was dealt a hard hand,� Greer said. “He’s a great guy and a great coach. If he’s not coaching here next year, he’ll definitely be coaching somewhere else and be very successful.� Barlow said his time as interim head coach was a learning experience, and he gained skills and
knowledge that will help him in his coaching career. “I have enjoyed the process, even though we have not won as many games as I would have liked to, but the whole process has been fun for me,� he said. Barlow said the most difficult part of the job was raising the morale of the team after tough defeats. As the defensive coordinator earlier in the year, he only had to worry about getting the defense ready, he said. “You have to find the way to push the buttons of an entire team,� he said. “I didn’t know if I had the ability to do that, but I have found out that I do.� Former Notre Dame head football coach Bob Davie takes the reins of the Lobo football program, which has finished 1-11 three seasons in a row.

Guard chemistry vital to win by Mundo Carrillo ecarr50@unm.edu
The guards of the men’s basketball team defended the Lobos’ four game winning streak. Four guards, freshman Hugh Greenwood and sophomores Kendall Williams, Tony Snell and Demetrius Walker, snagged double-digit points. They scored a combined 58 of the Lobos’ 76 total points. Williams reached a career-high 19 points to help the Lobos pull off a 16-point victory over the Bears. While the other guards busied themselves making shots, Williams drove through the lane and picked up fouls on his way to the basket. He added 10 points from the free-throw line. “I thought our activity in the guard position was really good,” head coach Steve Alford said. “Hugh made some shots, Tony made some shots. Kendall was very active and
was very hard to guard.” The Lobos got off to a 10-0 start, thanks to shooting from Snell and Greenwood. The first six points of the game came courtesy of two straight 3-pointers from Snell. Snell and Greenwood ended the game with three 3-pointers each. Greenwood ended with 11 points and added his first blocked shot of the season. Greenwood said he is starting to get more comfortable with his shooting skills. “I’ve been more aggressive these last few games,” he said. “Shooting is a strength of mine.” Walker added two more 3-pointers for the Lobos and scored 16 points coming off the bench. “I thought D-Walk (Walker) came in and really provided a spark for us,” Alford said. “He did a lot of good things for us coming off the bench.” Williams said the guards are starting to build chemistry together.

Lobos, however, was from the freethrow line as they outshot the Bears 35-5. UNM made 24 while Missouri State only made 3. Limiting the opponent’s freethrow attempts has been a key improvement from the beginning of the season, Alford said. “We’ve had two games in a row that our opponents have shot a total of 10 free throws,” Alford said. “Our defense has come a long way in a month because four weeks ago teams were

“I like playing with Hugh; I like playing with Jamal (Fenton),” Williams said. “Hugh is starting to come into his own and it makes for a good environment.” Greenwood, Snell, Walker and Williams also combined for 19 rebounds. Greenwood and Williams had six each. The scoring from the guards made up for the lack of production from the post, as senior forwards A.J. Hardeman and Drew Gordon and sophomore forward Cameron Bairstow combined for 13 points. The Lobos were also without senior guard Phillip McDonald for most of the game. McDonald injured his ankle after only four minutes. Even though four guards reached double-digit points, Alford said he couldn’t care less how many players pull off that feat. “It doesn’t matter if we have four or zero,” Alford said. “If we win, I’m always going to be pretty happy.”
shooting 30 free-throws against us.” Williams said the defense has been exceptional in the past couple of games and that the experience the Lobos have been picking up has also helped. “Our defense looks real good; that’s how we’ve gotten off to good starts these past games,” Williams said. “We’re just learning. We’re still a young team and I think the experience is picking up a lot and it’s showing in our performances.”

I’mnewhereandIlovekerning Capricorn — You might feel an overwhelming sense of guilt as you become incapable of dealing with stress properly. You feel you deserve a break, and perhaps that’s true, but what’s more beneficial is a break from your steady stream of inner criticism. The only way to shut up your critic is to prove your worth to it. You have what it takes, you just need to act without letting the exhaustion sap your motivation. Aquarius — A sense of dread seizes you when you consider the pattern developing in your life. Important changes are coming, calling you make adjustments as necessary. It’s easy to defend your stability by rationalizing the merit of your situation, and thereby making change wrong. This concept is rooted in fear of failure. Understand that this change is all for the better, so it is best to take it in stride. Pisces — Rising from deep in your heart is the need to connect to society as a whole. Individual interactions test your patience with the endless inanities of small talk and absorbing people’s seething criticism and negativity. Why can’t everyone else see the rosy world you find yourself lost in? I don’t expect this question will be answered soon, but it is worth considering it as the basis for a new life direction. Aries — There’s something that plagued you subconsciously for a while now, and it may be time to deal with it. While Mercury is in retrograde motion, you should avoid confronting an individual about past disputes, especially if you are trying to make amends. Spend time considering scenarios in which you play out different plans of action. Your interest should gravitate toward the long-term. This is a good time to think about the big picture.
Taurus — You can no longer ignore the disconnect between your mind and body, as it is crucial for the two to work together. Lately, you switch between consciousness in both arenas and leave loose ends that are now coming back to haunt you. Your problem is thinking too much without acting. Address your obligations and your mind will be ready to deal with the larger problems you’re experiencing. Gemini — A flurry of activity in the past weeks sent your mind spinning. Now that your mind has abandoned the physical realm in favor of intellectual pursuits and socializing, you may behave in a way that falsely reflects your true thoughts. Remember this change if you’re not too baffled by the affronted looks of those you typically have a friendly rapport with. On the upside, this could be a foray into new relationships you may not have considered in your “right mind.” Cancer — Your daily routine, which affords you a degree of comfort in its predictability, feels increasingly restrictive. With Sagittarian influences this month, you feel compelled to make radical changes for a richer experience, something like a vacation. Allow yourself respites throughout the day to collect your thoughts so you can experience grand and ordinary phenomena of the world. You’d be amazed at the wondrous things that are often right in front of us, if only we paused to look. Leo — You can make great leaps under present cosmic conditions, as long as you don’t let the opinions of others influence your actions. You should consider what you want, not at the moment, but in general. With Mars in Virgo, your body is aching
lobo features to be tested with hard labor, so set yourself to a task and let your mind wander the possibilities that could lead to a new future. Virgo — The snowy environment reflects your present situation, except Albuquerque is your mind. Your conscious roams blindly and explores the familiar in strange conditions. You notice more and more instances of what you considered impossible actually happening in reality. This is concept is scary because such instances challenge your beliefs. Use this surreal nature to your benefit. Limits are lifted, and allow you to move toward goals you previously thought impossible. Libra — Just like extracting the interesting bits of movies and condensing them into a preview, you are rejecting the banal in search of something more fulfilling. This quest is worthy, though it feels as though you are losing yourself in the process. If your head rises too far into the clouds, it’s easy to lose touch with the familiar world, though maintaining contact is important for a warm welcome upon your return. Find a travel companion for your physical or intellectual ventures, to preserve your connections with others. Scorpio — You can’t help but share everything on your mind these days, which can get you in trouble just as easily as it let new people into your life. You have much to offer, and you feel that giving yourself away is the best way to reach a world you feel alienated by. Keep this idea in mind when you make plans in the next couple of weeks to avoid losing energy. It is possible to be selective about your associations without being critical. Sagittarius — An attitude change is necessary, but once achieved you will find doors opening left and right. This concept is probably new to you, as your disposition tends to be sunny and receptive, qualities that you and many others consider ideal. Right now, it is easy for others to take advantage of these characteristics. Rather than sheer optimism, the coming weeks call for an honest assessment of yourself and for you to present yourself as such. Don’t let the fear of rejection keep you from revealing your true feelings.

Firing line allows 16-point victory over Bears by Thomas Romero-Salas tromeros@unm.edu
Like true wolves, the Lobos surrounded Missouri State early in the game on Saturday, and kept their prey down for a 76-60 victory. UNM came out firing, hitting four early 3-pointers en route to a 20-4 lead, with 11:52 remaining in the first half. The Lobos never trailed in the game. “I thought we really came out with a lot of urgency and intensity,” head coach Steve Alford said. “Our defense is getting better. I thought we did a really good job taking them out of their stuff.” Missouri State hit only two shots in the first 10 minutes as UNM’s defense swarmed and caused seven turnovers during that time span. UNM’s biggest lead was 33-9, which came at 6:35 left in the first half, and the Lobos led at halftime 39-23. MSU tried to mount a comeback in the second half, cutting the deficit down to 12 points multiple times, but UNM stayed strong and didn’t let the lead dip to single digits. “We were really hot in the first half; we were making shots and getting stops defensively,” said freshman guard Hugh Greenwood. “The second half, they were scoring and it kind-of took our rhythm away. Defense is a priority and we kind of let that slip in the second half.” The best chance for the Bears to make it a game came with 2:16 left, as Missouri State’s Corey Copeland had a layup on a fast break opportunity to cut the lead to 10 points, but missed it. After the miss, sophomore guard Demetrius Walker delivered the final blow with an old-school 3-point play as he was fouled on a layup with 1:48 left in the game. The Bears never reared again,

UNM beat the Bears 76-60 and hit a season-high of 10 3-pointers. and the Lobos went on to win by 16 points to boost their record to 6-2, while MSU fell to 4-2. The win was the fourth-straight for UNM. Four Lobos had double-digit points, with sophomore guard Kendall Williams leading all
scorers with 19 (a career high), Walker with 16, sophomore guard Tony Snell with 12, and Greenwood with 11. Alford said Williams played well, not only by scoring points, but by doing a little bit of everything else.
“I thought Kendall was really good,” Alford said. “Kendall is very active and very hard to guard. His stat line is all over the place as far as numbers; he rebounded and got assists he did a lot of good things.” Three-pointers helped UNM

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
1-point win recoups record by Nathan Farmer
sports@dailylobo.com
Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo NMSU’s Kelsie Rozendaal (22) shot is blocked by UNM’s Porche Torrance on Sunday at The Pit. The Lobos won 54-53 for a 3-5 record.
First-year head women’s basketball coach Yvonne Sanchez snagged her first rival win against New Mexico State in the Rio Grande Rivalry on Sunday. With scores tied at 53, senior guard Lauren Taylor hit a free throw with 30 seconds left to take the lead, and the Lobo defense held on as UNM won 54-53 in front of 7,551 fans for Pack The Pit. “It’s a huge win,” Sanchez said. “To get a one-point win in the tough situation we were in just speaks volumes. Hopefully they feel everything is turning around a bit.” UNM went 20-45 shooting in the game, but started with only eight healthy players. The leading scorer, junior guard Caroline Durbin, started on the bench for the first time this season because of the flu. Regardless, the Lobos started the game with a 10-0 run and held NMSU scoreless until 12:40 left in the first half. Taylor led the team with 13 points and said the Lobos’ offense was perfect at the beginning of the game. “We were playing motion really well,” she said. “They were getting lost in a lot of the screens and we played it really well.” A late run by the Aggies closed the gap to a three-point difference, and the Lobos led 27-24 into half.
“We have dropped three games by three or less points. It kind of gets with your psyches sometimes when you do that.” ~Yvonne Sanchez head coach
Much as they did in the first half, the Lobos dominated with a 14-4 run in the first six minutes of the second half for a 15-point lead. With 10 minutes left, NMSU put UNM in a full-court press that led to four quick turnovers. Sanchez said the team needs to figure out a way to limit its turnovers when the opposing team plays fullcourt press defense on them. “That’s just our Achilles’ heel,” she said. “We still have to work on it. It’s one of those things like your shot: you’ve got to keep working on it. People are going to press us, so we have to make sure we solve it with something.”
NMSU had 25 points off of UNM’s 18 turnovers, and with 6:13 left the Aggies took their first lead, 48-47. The Aggies led by four points with five minutes remaining, but the Lobos dwindled it down to a 53-53 tie with 30 seconds left. Taylor got fouled bringing the ball up the court and hit one of two free throws, giving the Aggies the ball with 25 seconds left and a chance to win. But the Lobo defense didn’t allow NMSU a shot, as senior forward Porche Torrance blocked NMSU’s Kaitlyn Soto’s layup as time ran out on the shot clock. The block was one of Torrance’s five in the game to go along with her seven steals and 10 points. “They could have dropped their shoulders when they went up four,” Sanchez said. “We have dropped three games by three or less points. It kind of gets with your psyches sometimes when you do that.” The Lobos are now 4-5. Taylor said it felt good to finally be on the winning side of a close game. “We lost some of those other games by two or three, but we said ‘not this game, were getting this game,’ ” she said. “The last timeout we said ‘we are winning this thing. Whatever you have to do to get it done, we’re getting it done.’ ”
