Housing plan gets LDB’s go-ahead

GPSA discourages cuts from academics

by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

GPSA passed two resolutions at Saturday’s meeting recommending economic decisions that do not sacrifice academic success.

GPSA Council Chair Megan McRobert said the recommended changes have students’ best interests at heart.

“The resolution that was passed urges GPSA representatives on that board and the SFRB (Student Fee Review Board) in general to ensure … that recruitment and retention and the well-being of students are at the forefront of their priorities,” she said.

UNM is moving forward with its American Campus Communities partnership.

At the Dec. 3 meeting, the Lobo Development Board approved the “Strategic Housing Plan”.

Kim Murphy, Real Estate director, said the plan is a document that provides ACC and UNM direction to enhance student housing.

“The strategic housing plan is a business document. It is not a physical plan. It is not a design,” he said.

“Nothing is final until the ground lease is agreed upon and is executed by the regents of New Mexico.”

The document outlines the timing and construction locations for the four-phase project, the first of which breaks ground this summer and will add 980 beds to main campus.

The plan proposes shifting the typical UNM double-bedroom unit

Letters ‘Merry Christmas’ isn’t meant to exclude non-Christians Editor, I want to take this opportunity to wish all of the students, staff and faculty at UNM a very Merry Christmas.

I know it is politically correct to use the term “Happy Holidays,” but I can’t bring myself to do that.

Christmas has a special meaning to me, and it goes beyond Christmas shopping.

There are two main emotions in our human lives: love and fear. When we are fearful, we are envious, greedy, hateful, bigoted, jealous, cruel, untruthful, impatient and fearful of criticism.

Most of our activities on the planet are predicated on fear. We wage wars; we are racially hateful, homophobic, and participate in ridiculous political elections where both parties preach fear of the other party.

Love has always been present throughout history, but Jesus was the first and the best to demonstrate it with his activities.

When Jesus was born, he was the epitome of love. When you practice love as Jesus did, you are compassionate, peaceful, generous, merciful, truthful, patient, courageous and willing to forgive all transgressions.

It doesn’t matter to Jesus whether you accept him as your savior, or if you subscribe to another religion or don’t accept any. All he wants us to do is practice what he taught us in his ministry, and that is that love is the main human emotion and fear is to be avoided if at all possible.

So, if you are a Christian, a Buddhist, a Hindu, a Muslim or belong to any other faith, or if you are an agnostic or an atheist, I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas. That means a very loving Christmas, not just for Christmas, but for all of December — plus all the days, weeks, months and years that follow.

Gluten gluttons— check the facts

Richard “Bugman” Fagerlund Retired UNM staff

Tell MRN that discrimination against gays is unacceptable Editor, The Mind Research Network (MRN) up on North Campus does interesting science.

The work it does may better the lives of people who have developmental and mental health disorders. The center should be supported in this.

Unfortunately, MRN’s Human Resources department is engaged in what is, frankly, an evil practice.

A few legally married gay MRN employees have applied to get partner health care and other benefits for their spouses. MRN has, to my knowledge, refused their requests as “company policy.”

This is unacceptable. New Mexico law leans toward giving married people marriage benefits, and even if it did not, the practice would still be evil.

If you agree, I ask you to take a simple step — one I will take.

Draft and print out a letter to the MRN letting them know that you detest its choice and you’d like them to extend full marriage benefits to all of its employees. Either walk up the hill to the end of Yale Boulevard or ride the bus that picks you up at the roundabout. Drop the letter off in person.

I don’t know if this will change MRN’s policy, but I know it will let the people in charge know that they are in the public eye, and we will hold them accountable.

“Most people do have intestinal symptoms, but not all.”

By Peggy Spencer

Daily Lobo Columnist Dear Dr. Peg, I have had diarrhea and constipation off and on for a year. My doctor thought it might be irritable bowel syndrome. I also have headaches and joint pain, and I read online that it might be Celiac disease, so I cut gluten from my diet for a while, and I felt much better. But a gluten-free diet is hard to keep up. Could this be Celiac disease, and is there a test to confirm it?

-Gluten Girl Dear Gluten Girl, Yes it could, and yes there is.

Lest you fear you are alone, know that one in 100 Americans has Celiac disease, also known as gluten intolerance. That comes out to about 3 million people and qualifies as a common condition. The word “celiac” comes from the Greek word for bellyache, which is the classic symptom of this disease.

People with Celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten. Gluten is a protein that is found in wheat, rye and barley. It is what makes bread doughy and elastic. It is everywhere, not only in the obvious places like bread, but also in some cereals, cheese spreads, chocolate milks, dried fruits, and other foods. It can also be found in surprising places like medicines and cosmetics.

The problem is a genetic autoimmune one.

It is more common in Caucasians, women and relatives of those with Celiac disease.

Some people have symptoms starting in childhood. Others don’t have problems until adulthood, when the disease might get triggered by a stressful event like surgery, pregnancy, a

viral infection or emotional stress.

When a Celiac person eats gluten, their intestines react by creating an inflammatory immune response. This response causes damage to the intestine, and makes it unable to properly absorb nutrients. This results usually in bloating and diarrhea.

Because it causes a general absorption difficulty, gluten intolerance results in many other problems. If your intestine cannot absorb iron, you can become anemic. Calcium malabsorption can lead to osteoporosis. General nutrient malabsorption can lead to poor growth in children, or unexplained weight loss in adults.

There are even some cancers, like lymphoma and intestinal cancers, that are more common in untreated Celiac disease patients.

For reasons that are not yet clear, this condition can also cause symptoms that are seemingly unrelated to the intestine. These include canker sores, headaches, joint pain, discolored teeth, tingling and numbness, infertility and an itchy skin rash.

Most people do have intestinal symptoms, but not all. This puts Celiac in the mystery weird disease category in my book.

The typical intestinal symptoms are what usually bring sufferers to their doctors, where diagnosis, unfortunately, might not happen right away. Gluten intolerance may be common, but not as common as run-of-the-mill

viral diarrhea or even irritable bowel syndrome, so sometimes it gets missed for a while.

Feel free to suggest it to your doctor if you think you might have it.

Gluten intolerance diagnosis starts with a blood test for antibodies to gluten followed by a biopsy of the small intestine. If one or both of these tests come back positive, the diagnosis is made, and gluten goes off the menu.

The treatment for Celiac disease is simple but far from easy.

Avoid gluten. This is harder than you might think. As I mentioned above, that stuff is everywhere, and even a little bit can cause a problem. For example, some products contain oats, which are usually safe for Celiac folks. However, some oats are harvested and processed in a way that causes contamination of the oats with wheat, and even the small amount of gluten that results from this contamination can be a problem.

Nobody knows how much gluten is safe, and Celiac sufferers have to avoid gluten for the rest of their lives.

Once gluten is cleared from the diet, the intestine returns to normal, the antibodies disappear, and all is well in most cases. Usually vitamin and mineral supplements are recommended, as is monitoring for bone density and general health.

As awareness about this condition grows, you can find more gluten-free products marked and marketed on the shelves at stores and even on restaurant menus. Websites offer information about gluten-free medicines and foods, gluten-free recipes and Celiac support groups.

See below.

Finally, I want to commend you, Gluten Girl, for your initiative in researching your own symptoms, and your awareness in paying attention to your body on and off gluten. Taking responsibility for your own health and being mindful of your own body will serve you well all your life. Thanks for writing.

Family portraits capture hope Photo initiative benefits the displaced, homeless

by Sofia Sanchez sanchez@unm.edu

Tiffanie Kidd and her three children sat at Cuidando los NiĂąos nursery waiting for their turn to take a family photo.

Kidd, who partook in Help-Portrait, said Saturday’s event gave her family its first opportunity to be photographed since her 4-monthold was born. “We have not had a family portrait in years, so this is a great big thing for us today,� she said.

About 10 photographers and 25 volunteers rallied to help at least 12 displaced or homeless families at Saturday’s photo sesssion,

from 71 square feet per person to 178 square feet and replacing community bathrooms with subdivided restrooms shared by four residents.

Regent Don Chalmers said having a thorough plan for the project is necessary before UNM picks up a shovel. “Our structures are sound, but they are old and tired,� he said. “When you compare them to peer institutions, they are not as modern. I have been pushing hard to get a strategic housing plan because for us to start building things without a strategic plan is getting the cart in front of the horse.�

Murphy said UNM is in the preliminary stage of a three-step process: development proposal and selection, then project design and detailed budget and schedule, and finally signing the ground lease between ACC and UNM. “These three steps are really a progressive approval process for each individual phase of student housing,� he said.

Acting President Paul Roth said he wanted to address main campus students’ concerns about lack of communication, the timing of the demolition and the potentially segregated community. “A lot of the concern and anxiety that the students felt leading up to the last regents meeting was unnecessary,� he said. “Had there been really frequent, regular, really clear communication and information sharing, we would have had less prescriptions for Pepcid.�

Matt Stein, ACC on-campus director, said the plan calls for the demolition of three existing halls — two portions of SRCs and Santa Ana. He said the plan discusses ACC

sponsored by global nonprofit Help-Portrait and Albuquerque’s Cuidando los Niùos. Volunteers provided hair, make-up and clothes to families.

Morgan Petroski, who organized the event, found out about the global project last year, but did not have the time to pull an event together. She said this project is not just about taking family photos. “This is about giving back,� Petroski said. “This is about giving a family something that they probably have never had access to before or in a very long time.�

Volunteer photographer Amy Romero said family photos are precious artwork. “A photograph shows the family unit,� she said. “It’s artwork to me, and it’s artwork that is the most

improving student housing to prevent a hierarchical environment. “None of those halls are anticipated to have any type of ACC demolition services during the academic year,� he said. “Everything has been planned for the summer, once students have vacated after the spring semester.�

Murphy said the project’s goal is to attract upperclassmen to live on campus. “We have a tremendous drop off from freshman to sophomore and then further on through junior and senior,� he said.

Chalmers said universities typically experience the sophomore year drop off, and it will be difficult for UNM to change that. “Everybody falls off; it’s not just us. In fact, because we start at a lower level, we really don’t fall off as much as other people,â€? he said. “Colorado State goes from 96 percent to 8 percent. ‌ We are only at 32 percent and 5 percent stay on campus.â€?

Stein said the “Strategic Housing Plan� is a work in progress, and the UNM community will be notified of all changes. “The inherent nature of planning documents is that they can change,� he said. “This isn’t saying that the community center and the dining hall are going on the Coronado site.

This is an opportunity and an option for a future phase of development that we know needs to happen.�

Kelly Torres, a single mother of three, said her family will cherish the photo, and it will be something her children can look back on when they’re older. “It’s something I didn’t have,� she said. “I had one portrait of my mom and my older brother. So, this will be the first time all four of us will be taking a family portrait.�

need to become self-sufficient.�

In her report to the council, Knudsen discussed an amendment to policy 1310 that she intends to propose to the Board of Regents’ Finance and Facilities Committee in January. The policy makes a distinction between recurring programs, which appear on the budget each year, and non-recurring programs, which must re-apply annually, that determines how much their funding can be cut each year.

Non-recurring programs, including El Centro de la Raza and the African American Studies, can be cut entirely each year, while recurring programs can only be slapped with a probationary 5 percent cut.

Knudsen said financial difficulties make flexibility necessary when making cuts to programs. “That doesn’t allow for ‌ us to cut some programs that, though we love them and know that they are great programs, they may be slightly lower on the priority list,â€? she said.

Other items from the GPSA meeting: GPSA also appropriations requests

that would benefit the recently chartered Out Queer Grads and the GPSA computer lab.

OQG requested $1,000 for administrative and outreach purposes, but the council granted the organization $130 for administrative purposes and was reluctant to fund events that hadn’t been planned.

The computer lab has seen printing increases that require $2,360 for additional paper and ink supplies.

The council agreed to the request but brought the allocation down to $1,920.

Nick Engquist, the GPSA project assistant who submitted the request, said that the cost per student would be about $.30 to $.40 per semester but isn’t interested in monitoring the number of pages graduate students print. “As to implementing a system that would track for honesty and integrity in students, I think that would be woefully inappropriate,� he said. “We want to trust the integrity of the people that come in and use our resources. I think it would be extremely costly as well.�

Local aviator to visit space Associated Press

LAS CRUCES — Wally Funk, 71, has had her sights set on the heavens all her life.

With the purchase of a $200,000 ticket to ride Virgin Galactic’s spaceplane from southern New Mexico, the flight instructor who five decades ago was part of a group called the First Lady Astronaut Trainees is finally on the doorstep of her dream of spaceflight.

When she was 6, a Superman cape hanging from her shoulders, Funk repeatedly jumped off the roof of the barn at her parents’ Taos home into a pile of hay. “I just kept jumping in the hay, hoping to learn how to fly,� Funk said in a telephone interview from her north Texas home. “Mother said, ‘Honey, you can always be a flight attendant.’ Funk came closest to her dream of being a pioneering female astronaut in 1961 when, at 21, she became the youngest volunteer in an Albuquerque-based private program that evaluated women’s fitness for spaceflight.

Twenty-five women from around the country were invited participate,

19 accepted, and the baker’s dozen who passed the demanding series of tests were dubbed the Mercury 13.

The name is a spinoff of the Mercury 7 male astronauts, introduced to the public by NASA in early 1959, who would take part in the nation’s initial spaceflight program. “All the guys got the glory,� Funk said. “We didn’t.�

The program was canceled before the women could take part in advanced testing at a naval facility in Pensacola, Fla. Funk was disappointed but didn’t let go of her dream. “This kid didn’t give up,� Funk said. “I’ve been waiting since ‘61 to get there (space), and I’m going.�

Funk attended the Oct. 22 runway dedication ceremony at Spaceport America, the publicly financed spaceport under construction southeast of Truth or Consequences. There, Virgin Galactic plans to begin flying commercial passengers on suborbital flights in the next 18 months.

A twin-fuselage aircraft, the mothership, will release a six-passenger spaceship at 50,000 feet, where the smaller craft will rocket to the edge of space for a few weightlessness and an

The Giving Tree

eye-popping view of Earth.

When Virgin Galactic’s coupled aircraft and spaceship flew over the spaceport during the dedication ceremonies, an animated Funk let out a loud whoop. “I’m going to make it,� she said.

Funk took flight at an early age. At 16, she enrolled at Stephens College in Columbia, Mo., where, along with obtaining an associate of arts degree, she earned her pilot’s license. Before graduating in 1958, she competed as a Stephens Suzie in intercollegiate flight contests.

At the time, Dr. William Randolph Lovelace II, who ran the Lovelace Foundation for Medical Education and Research in Albuquerque, was the head of NASA’s Special Committee on Bioastronautics. Lovelace had helped design the physical testing regimen used to select the Mercury 7.

Believing that women, generally smaller and lighter than men, would be well-suited for the tight quarters of a space capsule, Lovelace and an Air Force brigadier general in 1960 invited pilot Geraldyn “Jerrie� Cobb to undergo the same testing that produced the Mercury 7.

EL-ARISH, Egypt — A shark tore the arm off an elderly German tourist at an Egyptian Red Sea resort, killing her almost immediately, security and diving officials said Sunday. The attack came only days after sharks badly mauled four other European tourists in the waters.

The German woman was swimming in the waters off Sharm elSheikh, a famed diving and vacation resort in the Sinai peninsula, when the shark attacked, Egyptian security officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they are not allowed to brief the media.

“It was definitely a shark attack,” said Hesham Gabar, the head of Egypt’s Chamber of Diving and Water Sports. The German Embassy in Cairo immediately be

reached for comment.

Sunday’s deadly attack, which forced authorities to indefinitely close the resort’s beaches, comes after oceanic white tip sharks mauled three Russians and a Ukrainian tourist last week, also off the coast of Sharm el-Sheikh. In one of those attacks, a shark bit off an elderly woman’s hand and tore off another woman’s leg.

Following those attacks, Egyptian authorities closed the beaches in Sharm el-Sheikh. On Thursday, the Environment Ministry said two sharks suspected of mauling the four tourists were caught.

Authorities allowed swimmers back into the waters Saturday after divers from the Chamber of Diving and Water Sports and the Environment Ministry scoured popular diving sites in an effort to ensure they were safe.

The Environment Ministry also ordered authorities to security

Gay marriage foes gamble on win in Round 2

by Lisa Leff

Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO— The defenders of California’s gay marriage ban took a pummeling during the first federal trial to explore the civil rights implications of outlawing same-sex marriages. They summoned only two witnesses, one of whom left the stand looking thrashed. Even the lead attorney was left groping for words when pressed to explain how allowing gays and lesbians to wed would undermine traditional unions.

If the courtroom had been a boxing ring, the referee would have called a knockout.

Yet lawyers for the ban’s sponsors say their side was on the ropes for a reason: They disputed that live testimony and reams of evidence were relevant to a lawsuit against the voter-approved Proposition 8, so they did not provide it. In their view, the proceedings were a “a show trial,” and they were willing to invite the unfavorable verdict they eventually got while betting they would win in a later round where the ground rules would be different.

“Something that has been lost sight of is who has the burden of proof in this case,” Andrew Pugno, a lawyer for Proposition 8’s sponsors, said at the 13-day-long trial’s close. “The burden is not on the defendants and the people who voted for Prop 8.”

That strategy’s wisdom will be put to its first test Monday, when a federal appeals court is set to hear arguments in Perry v. Schwarzenegger, the landmark constitutional challenge to the gay marriage ban. The coalition of religious and conservative groups that won Proposition 8’s passage two years ago has asked the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reverse the San Francisco judge who pointed to their “rather limited factual presentation” when he struck down the

measure.

Despite the lopsided trial record, most legal experts agree the defense team’s reasoning is not far-fetched.

They say the three-judge panel could discount the exhaustive trial evidence that Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker laid out in his August decision. In its place, the panel could substitute studies that were barely discussed in Walker’s court or, more likely, its own interpretation of relevant case law.

“I can’t say whether the case was litigated well or badly,” said Eugene Volokh, a UCLA law school professor whose popular legal-affairs blog was inundated with comments from observers critical of the defense’s trial performance. “If the question is whether they should have introduced more witnesses at trial, I’m skeptical it would have done any good. It certainly wasn’t necessary, and I’m not sure it would have been at all helpful.”

Proposition 8’s supporters maintain Walker erred by employing “standard courtroom fact-finding” to a case that, unlike a criminal trial where a singular event is in dispute, hinged on broader questions of policy, tradition and legal precedent.

“The district court based its findings almost exclusively on an uncritical acceptance of the evidence submitted by plaintiffs’ experts, and simply ignored virtually everything — judicial authority, the works of eminent scholars past and present in all relevant academic fields, extensive historical and documentary evidence — that ran counter to its conclusions,” they wrote in their opening brief.

They also are hoping to persuade the appeals court panel that the lower court judge improperly demanded proof for their claim that permitting same-sex marriages would undermine marriage’s “central animating societal purpose” of promoting responsible childbearing among men

Jeff Chiu / AP Photo Andrew Pugno, lead counsel for Protectmarriage.com, speaks at news conference in San Francisco, Calif. on Jan. 19. A federal appeals court will hear arguments today in Perry v. Schwarzenegger, the landmark constitutional challenge to the state’s voter-approved gay marriage ban. and women.

University of Pittsburgh law school professor Arthur Hellman said the stakes for gay marriage opponents rose this week with the random selection of three judges to hear the appeal. Two are Democratic appointees, one among the court’s most liberal members.

Even if they affirm Walker’s ruling, Hellman said the appellate judges are unlikely to do so simply because the plaintiffs presented 17 witnesses compared with the two defense witnesses.

“It is unlikely the court would consider itself bound and limited by what happened in the district court, that it could not go beyond the trial record,” he said.

Walker made it clear he planned

to assess the validity of hotly debated questions surrounding same-sex marriage based on what he heard in his courtroom. Are laws limiting marriage to a man and a woman based on prejudice or religion? How does denying gays and lesbians the right to wed affect children? Do people choose their sexual orientations?

Lawyers for the two same-sex couples who sued to overturn Proposition 8 offered testimony from the couples, political scientists, psychologists, a man who had been forced to undergo unsuccessfully therapy to become heterosexual and a Proposition 8 supporter summoned as a hostile witness.

The defense cross-examined those witnesses at length and introduced studies intended to undercut

their accounts. But their witness list consisted of a political scientist who Walker later concluded was not an expert in gay and lesbian issues and a self-educated scholar on fatherhood whose opinions the judge dismissed.

Boston University family law professor Linda McClain said she thinks the decision “not to put on much of an evidentiary case” was an “imprudent litigation strategy.”

McClain nonetheless notes that it would only take persuading two of the panel’s members that Walker was wrong in concluding that marriage is a fundamental right under the U.S. Constitution for Proposition 8 to be preserved. If the 9th Circuit ends up agreeing that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional, the U.S. Supreme Court is expected to step into the case.

Yet as quickly as Gillenwater heated up, he cooled down and struggled in the second half, and it was in large part to the swarming UNM defense.

To his end, Gillenwater delivered for the Aggies.

half,” Alford said. “Looking back, we held (them) to 37 percent shooting, and they only made 3s at half. It was really the foul line that kept them in striking distance.”

Despite only scoring nine points in the second half, Gillenwater said he was getting great looks.

“Those shots that I missed, I am really capable of making those shots,” he said. “It’s just that they didn’t go down.”

Gillenwater said he was disgusted with his performance in the final 35 minutes of Saturday’s game. He missed back-to-back 3-pointers in the waning moments of overtime.

Gillenwater said he was running on empty from the physical play with the Lobos.

“I wouldn’t say (I was) fatigued,” he said. “I just have to get better.”

new mexico bowl

AP Photo BYU’s Mike Muehlmann (82) and teammate McKay Jacobson celebrate after Jacobson scored a touchdown against Utah on Nov. 27. BYU will play UTEP on Dec. 18 in the New Mexico Bowl at University Stadium.

NM Bowl keeps it regional

by Ryan Tomari rtomari@unm.edu Like the past two years, the New Mexico Bowl this year will feature no teams from New Mexico.

Mountain West Conference member BYU and Conference USA member UTEP accepted invitations to play in the bowl game held at University Stadium on Dec. 18.

Jeff Siembieda, the executive director of the New Mexico Bowl, said the match-up should attract hordes of fans, both local and regional.

“I have a strong respect for the Cougars’ program, its proud tradition and passionate fans,” he said.

“Combine that with the history that BYU has here in New Mexico, and I am very happy that they will be representing the Mountain West Conference in this year’s game.”

The last two New Mexico Bowls featured tight-knit contests.

Two years ago, Colorado State

scored 20 points in the fourth quarter to defeat Fresno State 40-35. Last year, Wyoming outlasted Fresno State in a double overtime affair, 35-28.

BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall, whose Cougar team started 2-5 and finished 6-6, said his program is glad to be in a bowl after a shaky start.

“We look forward to the opportunity to continue to improve our team and build for the future,” he said in a statement.

The New Mexico Bowl traditionally features teams from the MWC and Western Athletic Conference, but a Conference USA member will be in this year’s bowl instead.

UTEP accepted an official invitation Friday, its first bowl appearance since 2005.

Siembieda said with UTEP’s invitation, University Stadium has the potential to be at near capacity since El Paso is within driving distance.

“It just seems to be a natural,” he said. “With the regional proximity, the

great history UTEP athletics has in this area and being able to renew an old rivalry between the Miners and BYU, I’m really excited about this game.”

The Miners finished 6-6 and defeated the Lobos 38-20 on Oct. 2 at University Stadium. The Miners will make their second trip to University Stadium this season.

UTEP head coach Mike Price said BYU poses a threat to his team.

“We’re excited about renewing our long-standing rivalry with BYU in the New Mexico Bowl,” he said in a statement. “It’s a great opportunity for our fans to drive down for the game, enjoy postseason play and take in the great city of Albuquerque.”

Lost but not forgotten

by Brandon Call bcall@unm.edu This was a record-setting season for the UNM volleyball team.

Unfortunately, the Lobos were bounced from the NCAA Tournament in the first round with a 3-0 loss at the hands of No. 5 Southern California on Friday.

But there is much to celebrate in the Lobos’ accomplishments.

UNM ended its season with a 20-10 record, finishing 12-4 in the Mountain West Conference. The Lobos’ 12 wins are the most conference wins for a volleyball team in program history.

UNM also defeated No. 13 Colorado State 3-0 on Nov. 11 for its first win over a ranked opponent in more than two years.

“This season was great,” junior middle blocker Ashley Rhoades said. “We had our ups, and we had our downs, but what I’m most proud of is the fight in our team. We never gave up, and we faced everything together.”

The Lobos earned an onslaught of individual honors. Head coach Jeff Nelson was named the MWC USC 3 Coach of the Year.

Jade Michaelsen UNM 0 was named the MWC Setter of the Year, and junior

libero Allison Buck shared co-Libero of the Year honors with Utah’s Keisha Fisher.

Senior outside hitter Lisa Meeter and senior middle blocker Taylor Hadfield were also named to the all-MWC team, and junior right-side hitter Kelly Williamson was named an Academic All-American.

“This team wasn’t looking for those individual-type of awards,” Michaelsen said. “We were very focused on improving as a team. When you have that kind of team unity, everyone deserves recognition for the success.”

The three seniors — Hadfield, Michaelsen and Meeter — left their marks on the UNM volleyball history books.

Hadfield finished her career as a Lobo with 2009 All-America honorable mention honors. In addition, she led the team in hitting percentage and points this season.

Meeter joined the 1,000 kill, 1,000 dig and 100 ace club this season, becoming only the third player in MWC history to accomplish such a feat. She finished her career as one of the most complete players in UNM’s history, adding her name to UNM’s top-10 career digs, kills, points, attack attempts, service aces and double-doubles lists.

Michaelsen became UNM’s alltime assist leader on Oct. 23 and

notched 4,174 assists in her career.

She also among UNM’s top 10 in total blocks and block assists.

“Our seniors were great team leaders, teammates and, most of all, friends,” Rhoades said. “They are amazing athletes, and they were a big part of our team’s success this year.

We’ll miss them so much next year.”

UNM also gained national attention in 2010 for its attendance figures, ending the season with the 12th-best attendance figures in the nation with an average of 2,232 fans per home game.

“What a lot of people don’t know is that we went undefeated at home in conference this season,” Michaelsen said. “To be able to share that with our fans is priceless. We have the best fans. They’re so supportive of us, and they’re very knowledgeable about the game. It’s nice to be surrounded by that.”

And the Lobos weren’t afraid to play ranked teams this season, facing off against No. 2 Stanford, No. 3 Hawaii, No. 5 USC and No. 13 Colorado State.

“If you want to be the best, you’ve got to beat the best,” Rhoades said. “By facing so many ranked teams, we get to see what the next level looks like, and now we know what we need to do to get there.”

TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED

by Shaun Griswold shaun24@gmail.com

LAS CRUCES – It wasn’t pretty, but is it ever when the Lobo men’s basketball team plays at NMSU? All things considered, Saturday night’s contest between the Lobos and Aggies was sloppy, and UNM flirted with disaster but pulled out a 84-78 overtime victory at the Pan American Center.

“I thought we really battled defensively,” head coach Steve Alford said. “We’re a very young basketball team, and we’re ahead of the game right now when it comes to toughness and really understanding moments in games.”

Before finals week, the Lobos (6-1) took a crash course in winning on the road. If anything, the Lobos’ recent road trip provided understanding on how to UNM 84 play in front of hostile crowds, maintain a lead and win in overtime.

The UNM faithful can expect an electrifying sequel when the AgNMSU 78 gies come to Albuquerque for a rematch Saturday.

Early on, UNM looked primed to win big against NMSU. The Lobos played stingy defense and used their quickness to create open shots from the exterior and took a 17-point lead midway through the first half.

But NMSU fought back.

Propelled by 21 first-half points from Troy Gillenwater, the Aggies took advantage of UNM’s poor free-throw shooting and lazy passes to keep the game close.

Off a 3-pointer, Gordo Castillo gave the Aggies a 69-68 lead with less than two minutes left in the second half.

With 24 seconds left, UNM was up 73-71 and appeared to clinch the game after Gillenwater missed a key jump shot. But on the next possession, Dairese Gary stepped out of bounds trying to avoid an Aggie defender.

Castillo proved to be the difference-maker, his fadeaway jump shot tying the game with just five seconds left. UNM missed its last field goal attempt and the game went into overtime.

Phillip McDonald led the Lobos in overtime with eight points, including two clutch 3s to give UNM an early lead. He hit a 3 to help UNM regain the lead in overtime.

“We had to think about ball pressure the whole time and make sure they don’t get a 3,” McDonald said.

Gary, McDonald and Kendall Williams all scored in double figures. Gillenwater cooled after his hot first half start, but finished with a career-high 32 points.

Still, Alford said, the Lobos came up with stops when they needed them.

“We have got to get some rest,” he said. “We’re banged up, but we got to take this week and we got to get better.”

Gillenwater chips in 32, readies for Saturday at Pit

by Ryan Tomari rtomari@unm.edu LAS CRUCES — For at least one more game in the 2010 season, the UNM men’s basketball team could be in deep water.

Troy Gillenwater, considered NMSU’s sixth man during its 2010 Western Athletic Conference tournament championship run, has found his role as the Aggies’ scorer.

The junior scored 32 points to lead NMSU, but the Lobos escaped the City of Crosses in an overtime affair 84-78 Saturday at the Pan American Center.

Unfazed by the Lobos’ feisty defense, Gillenwater pumped in 21 first-half points. He was the Aggies’ only scoring presence and helped erase a 17-point lead 10 minutes into the contest.

Gillenwater said his instincts told

him to be aggressive.

“I looked to score,” Gillenwater said. “My teammates did a great job looking for me and giving me good shots. I think we came out and played hard in the first half and the second half, but I think that it kind of got into a free-throw contest. That’s kind of how the second half went with fouls, and no one was able to catch a real rhythm.”

Without a point guard, it was especially hard for the Aggies to finish off the Lobos.

NMSU point guards Hernst Laroche and Christian Kabongo fouled out before the overtime period.

But Gillenwater said the Aggies have practiced to face that type of situation.

“It wasn’t that tough,” he said.

“Gordo (Castillo) has been practicing being the point guard in practice a lot. So, even though Christian and Hernst were out, Gordo understood the position, and I think he did a
