The Independent Student Voice of UNM since 1895

QSA pushing for unisex restrooms

EMPTY PROMISES IN THE WEST

Dean of students supports initiative

by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com @ArdeeTheJourno

Queer-Straight Alliance Advocacy Chair Johny Golightly said that universal restrooms on campus are a basic student right.

“When we’re using the bathroom, we’re really vulnerable,” he said. “We should all be free to pee. We should have this safe space where we could relieve ourselves.

It’s a fundamental right for everybody to be free of harassment when choosing to do something as personal as that.”

QSA is pushing for an initiative that will increase the number of universal restrooms on campus, he said. Golightly, a student who identifies as gay, said the initiative would not limit benefits toward members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

“It’s a worthwhile cause because it’s not just an LGBT issue,” he said. “It’s a universal issue. It benefits nursing mothers. It benefits students who are differently bodied. We’re advocating for the vulnerable populations on campus to create this safe universal spaces.”

Golightly said his organization has started working on the initiative this semester.

At the moment, QSA plans to create dialogue about the issue through meetings, Golightly said.

He said his organization is working with ASUNM, the LGBTQ Resource Center and the Dean of Students Office for the initiative.

UNM Dean of Students Tomás Aguirre said universal restrooms are “one-stall restrooms that would not be gender specific.” He said the initiative also affects him personally.

“Last week for UNM’s 125th birthday, my two-year-old daughter was on campus,” he said. “I am not comfortable taking her into a big bathroom facility for men. I would much rather have a one-stall bathroom that I would have to go to with a child.”

ASUNM has repeatedly passed resolutions addressing universal

restrooms in the past, Aguirre said.

The undergraduate student government passed a resolution in March 2012 that supported “the development of Universal, GenderNeutral, & Family (GNF) restrooms on the UNM campus in an effort to be more accommodating and accessible to students, faculty and staff.”

The ASUNM Senate previously passed similar resolutions in 2010 and 2013 supporting the development of universal bathrooms in the SUB, according to the Daily Lobo.

None of these were able to effect concrete action.

Aguirre said it’s his job to change that.

“As the dean of students, I just want to make sure that it’s more than just a statement,” he said. “I want to really see if the University can really respond and do something about it.”

Aguirre said his office has been meeting with ASUNM and QSA about the initiative for the last two weeks. He said that at the moment, the organizations aim to convert existing one-stall bathrooms on campus into universal spaces, which is a simple task.

“All you have to do is take the sign off that says male or female and just put universal on it,” he said. “Then anybody could use it…

To a certain degree, it’s no different than a porta-potty. No one has issues at concerts or festivals. Can you imagine if you went to Balloon Fiesta, and there were so many restrooms that are just for women and so many just for men?”

Some University facilities, such as Student Health and Counseling, have already made their one-stall restrooms universal, Aguirre said.

He said that every new building at UNM, in the future, should have universal restrooms.

“If a student has to travel half a mile to use the restroom on campus, can you imagine what an uproar that would be?” he said.

“We’re just trying to create some equity here. These are things the University stands for.”

UNMH running at a loss System finances improve compared to previous year

by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com @ArdeeTheJourno

Seven months into fiscal year 2014, financial loss at the Sandoval Regional Medical Center remains steady at $5 million.

SRMC’s loss has stayed at that amount since the first quarter of this fiscal year, UNM Hospital CEO Steve McKernan said in a report at a UNMH Board of Directors meeting Friday. He said in total, the UNM Health System has lost $7 million this fiscal year.

McKernan also said that the health system in total has so far garnered revenue of about $600 million.

But SRMC’s loss so far this fiscal year is at a stable position, McKernan said. He said the center has actually improved financial operations since the previous fiscal year.

“We’re actually doing much better when you consider that in the prior year, we had gotten a $12 million one-time mill levy distribution from Sandoval County,” he said.

“This year that wasn’t replicated again. If take that into account, we have improved significantly.”

According to a financial document filed by UNMH in October, SRMC had spent about $54 million in FY 2013, and had earned about $42 million in total revenue.

McKernan said SRMC is now also able to work with other institutions in the health system to

manage the loss better.

“In the month of January, we were able to accrue about a million dollars of money back to the medical group to help cover some of the costs for physician practice,” he said. “That was a very good sign why we maintained the organization at its current loss of $5 million.”

McKernan said that for SRMC to keep up the good work, it should focus on “building the medical practice there, (in terms of ) more physicians and more services.”

Mike Richards, executive physician-in-chief of the UNM Health System, said SRMC aims to focus on increasing medical staff numbers at the facility. He said the center is also experiencing growth in its clientele.

“We’ve seen tremendous growth in our in-patient volumes,” he said.

“Our surgical run rates have also shown significant improvement.

We’re averaging, with our current run rates for the last couple of weeks, at about 375 to 380 surgeries per month.”

Richards said a remodel for a cardiology clinic in the facility is also taking place. He said the hospital is also developing its radiology lab to allow more on-site medical operations.

UNM President Robert Frank said at the meeting that he was impressed with SRMC’s progress.

“What a nice report compared to what we had two or three months ago,” he said. “It’s just gratifying to see team doing such a great job.”

UNMH Preliminary Budget At the meeting, Ava Lovell, executive officer of finance and

administration for the Health Sciences Center, discussed the preliminary budget of the health system. She said there will be a number of changes in this year’s budget because of changes brought about by Obamacare as it took effect last year.

“We’re working very hard,” she said. “We have a lot of changes because of ACA. It seems like a lot of our old money has stopped.

The old Medicaid has stopped.

The old state coverage initiative has stopped.”

Lovell said that at the moment, HSC will view its budget through a collaborative approach.

“We’ve had a lot of meetings,” she said. “We’re really bringing in together a collaborative process, an integrated process this year, within the facilities side and professional side. We’re looking at every expense line item to make sure that we could control our expenses.”

UNM HSC Chancellor Paul Roth said that in the past, departments in the HSC decided on their budget request by themselves. But Roth said that in recent years, departments have had to coordinate with other hospital administrators and have needed to work together on a collaborative budget.

“We’re a vanguard institution in an industry that is primitive,” he said. “What didn’t happen which is happening now is that there would not be a discussion with the hospitals… That’s what we currently do.”

Lovell said the HSC will present its preliminary budget at the UNM Budget Summit on March 25.

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Last week, the Daily Lobo wrote a story about Vanely

Salinas, an undocumented student who is receiving the New Mexico Legislative Lottery Scholarship. Undocumented students are able to apply for the state-allocated scholarship because of a law passed in 2005. Do you think undocumented students should be able to receive the lottery? Why

David Piersol Junior, history “Absolutely. The way I see it, most undocumented students are second generation. They’ve been living here. People who consider themselves American, culturally, they are American. So, I don’t see any reason why we should withhold the opportunity to attend college from them.”

Danielle Hawkes Sophomore, strategic communication and media arts “Yes and no. Yes, because everyone deserves the right to have an education.

No, because some kids are from here, and they deserve the lottery scholarship as well.”

Blanca Duarte Sophomore, mass communication and international studies “Yes I do. When people come to this country, everyone is trying to look for equal opportunity, and I feel like New Mexico is one of the biggest melting pots that allow different people to come here. Since we say that we are such a diverse college, I think it’s appropriate for us to do that.”

Stephan Carlozzi Senior, political science “To me the lottery is a door that only New Mexicans have access to. Not a lot of states have that kind of scholarship, so as many people as can get access to it, the better. Citizenship, I’m not sure that matters as much to me, because if you can prove that you graduated from a high school in the state, if you can prove that you have ambitions to graduate college, if you can maintain the requirements to maintain lottery, I think that should be all you need.” compiled by Zachary Pavlik @zachpavlik

Regents considering Tea party losing ground new tuition policies

by Thomas Beaumont The Associated Press

by Chloe Henson

assistant-news@dailylobo.com @ChloeHenson5

The UNM Board of Regents will hear about a potential new tuition model today that could help students dodge tuition increases.

In an email sent to the Daily Lobo, Regent Bradley Hosmer said the UNM Board of Regents requested a guaranteed tuition model so students can pay a slightly higher, guaranteed amount for tuition each year.

“The regents asked for a guaranteed tuition option to be worked up as part of the budget for next year,” he said. “Our thought is that some families may prefer to pay a small premium in exchange for complete certainty about the bill they will face in the following three years.”

There are two guaranteed tuition models, one that would charge students an additional 10 percent, and another that would charge an additional eight percent, according to the Office of Planning, Budget and Analysis website.

The guaranteed tuition model that will be presented to the regents would potentially charge students $7091.70, an additional 10 percent of their tuition, in exchange for guaranteeing them a constant tuition rate, according to a document presented at the meeting.

The traditional tuition model allows the Board of Regents to set the tuition rate each year, according to the Tuition and Related Fees policy.

Associate Vice President for Enrollment Management Terry Babbitt said students would be notified that there would need to be about a 6.4 percent increase in tuition

Bathrooms

each year in order for that plan to be effective.

He said students would also be given tuition history to help with their decision.

“That information would be very clear to students and families if this became a real option,” Babbitt said in an email. “We would also put out the average tuition increase the last three or four years for comparison.”

Babbitt started working on the model back in September 2013, according to a Tuition and Fee Policy Committee work plan.

Despite the slight increase in cost, Hosmer said students can’t lose money by signing up for the tuition model.

“They can’t lose, since if they pay more than their classmates going the usual route, the difference will be refunded,” he said.

Babbitt, who will present the model to the regents in today’s meeting, said students could choose whether they want to go with a traditional model or a guaranteed model.

“If it went forward, it would strictly be an option,” he said.

Babbitt will also present a progress report on the tuition model as an information item, according to the agenda for the meeting.

If the proposed model is passed by the regents at a future meeting, Hosmer said he doesn’t know how popular the model will be.

“We have no idea how many families will make this choice,” he said. “But we’ll know later this year.”

The regents meeting will be held in the Student Union Building in Ballroom C at 9 a.m.

Golightly said the number of universal restrooms on campus should be proportional to the growing population of UNM. “I believe that for every binary restroom option that we have on campus, we should at least include one universal bathroom,” he said.

“If we have a room with stalls allocated for males and females, we should have at least one bathroom that can accommodate every visitor in our campus.”

Golightly said that at the moment, his organization has

not encountered any opposition about the initiative. He said he is optimistic that the number of universal of universal bathrooms on campus would increase by the fall semester.

“We have students on campus who don’t identify with the binary gender codes that we have right now in terms of bathroom options,” he said. “With talking to different students who are part of the queer community, or whatever community they fall under, universal bathrooms can benefit them all.”

Four years after the tea party rocked the political world by ousting several prominent Republicans in Congress, the ultraconservative movement finds itself with slimmer prospects as it moves into the new election season.

In Tuesday’s first-in-thenation primaries in Texas, the movement mostly settled for having an impact on key races rather than actually winning them. That may become a pattern in other states as primaries continue into the fall, many national GOP strategists believe.

Though the hard-right flank is still powerful in the conservative heartland, its candidates face a different environment than was present in 2010 and 2012, when they won a series of key contests, highlighted by the election of Sen. Ted Cruz in Texas.

“In 2010, the ideological intensity was burning hot inside the GOP giving rise to the tea party,” said Greg Strimple, a Republican pollster and senior adviser to Texas U.S. Sen. John Cornyn. “As the party has moved to meet their concerns, the tea party’s outsized role has diminished.”

Only one Republican tea party candidate is seen as having a real shot at a GOP Senate nomination this year: Mississippi state Sen. Chris McDaniel, who is challenging six-term Sen. Thad Cochran. No tea party challengers are expected to win in this year’s House races.

Four years ago, 28 of the 60 new Republicans elected to the House were backed by the tea party.

Movement favorites won Senate seats in Utah, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Kentucky, Florida and Texas in the last two elections.

What has changed is that established Republicans are now highly wary of possible threats and preparing both politically and financially. They’ve been aggressively courting the movement’s most conservative voters for themselves.

Cornyn, who defeated two tea party opponents in Texas this week, spent more than $3 million on advertising and adopted the movement’s issues and fierce rhetoric, especially in denouncing President Barack Obama. He regularly questioned Obama’s

Cory Gardner, R-Colo., holds up a letter he wrote to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius asking that she consider waiving “Obamacare” for the 4th Congressional District of Colorado, as she testified on Capitol Hill in Washington. Republican primaries this election year will be a crucial test for the Tea Party movement as the GOP establishment has aggressively challenged tea party-backed candidates in Kentucky, Kansas, Idaho, Mississippi, Michigan and elsewhere. truthfulness in explaining the 2012 death of the U.S. ambassador to Libya, a particular tea party rallying cry.

Mainstream conservative organizations, such as the Chamber of Commerce, have also gotten heavily involved. Groups provided negative research and money for massive advertising blitzes aimed at challengers’ perceived weaknesses.

In Idaho, the chamber has already spent $155,000 on advertising to counter the attempt by tea party challenger Bryan Smith to unseat eight-term Rep. Mike Simpson.

“No question, there’s a lesson learned from past years that you can’t take your opponent for granted,” said Henry Barbour, a Republican National Committee member from Mississippi who is supporting Cochran.

In Texas, in addition to Cornyn’s victory, senior Republican Rep. Pete Sessions racked up 64 percent of the vote in defeating a Dallas-area tea party figure who had accused him of not being conservative enough.

Sessions spent more than $300,000 on the race.

The movement’s highlight in Texas was the first-place finish of state lawmaker and talk show host Dan Patrick in the lieutenant governor’s race. Patrick placed ahead of incumbent David Dewhurst, who was politically damaged in an unsuccessful

Senate bid in 2012. They will meet in the runoff.

But even without winning races, the tea party is having an impact by pushing many Republicans further to the right and toward its top priorities, especially reducing government spending.

After senior members like Cornyn and Sessions are forced to campaign so hard for hard-right support, they may wind up legislating much like the tea party candidates who would have replaced them, tea party activists say.

“The tea party may not be waving the tea party banner everywhere like they did. But that’s because everyone on our side has picked up those issues,” said David Carney, a tea party-oriented strategist advising Texas gubernatorial nominee Greg Abbott.

Many of the tea party candidates in other conservative states this year are stronger than those in Texas. Still, it appears that influence rather than victories may be the movement’s chief achievement this year.

In Kentucky, where it appeared Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, 72, might be vulnerable after three decades in Washington, his campaign opened up a lead after blitzing his tea party opponent, Matt Bevin, with ads citing his 2008 remarks praising the federal Wall Street bailout.

Editor, Cow’s milk is for baby cows, human milk is for baby humans. Animals in the wild do not drink the milk of a different kind of animal. No adult animal in the world drinks milk. Just as all animals are not alike, the milk from cows, goats, pigs and humans are not alike. Cow’s milk is designed to create a huge, big-boned animal in only two years. So if you are fat and if you drink cow’s milk and eat cheese and ice cream made from cow’s milk, do not expect to lose weight.

Cow’s milk causes more mucus than any food — thick, dense mucus that clogs and irritates your nose, throat, sinuses and lungs — gluey mucus that is hard for the body to get rid of. Cow’s milk can cause hay fever, asthma, bronchitis, sinus infections, colds, runny noses, stuffed noses and children’s ear infections. Cow’s milk is the main cause of allergies; cheese is a major cause of headaches.

87 percent of the protein in cow’s milk is casein. Casein makes cancer grow faster at all stages. Casein is used to make one of the strongest glues for wood. Far more casein is in cow’s milk than human milk. Our human digestion cannot break down the cow’s milk casein, so our intestines get clogged with thick, rope-like mucus. Eating cheeses and ice cream from cow’s milk can cause ulcers, colitis, colon cancer, prostate cancer, arthritis, osteoporosis and multiple sclerosis.

companies, the dairy industry wants your money — regardless if you get sick, suffer and die from swallowing their lies.

Most of all the cow’s milk, cheese and ice cream sold in U.S. grocery stores is pasteurized. The cow’s milk is heated to 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Pasteurization makes the cow’s milk more harmful than raw cow’s milk.

The teeth of children fed pasteurized cow’s milk are more likely to decay than the teeth of children fed cow’s milk. Pasteurizing cow’s milk does not make it clean — it would still have hair, soot, dust, dirt, shit, sweat or small bugs in it. Pasteurizing merely reduces many nutrients.

Many years ago I was addicted to much dairy, but I changed — largely in the 1980s. I eat no milk, no cheese and no ice cream.

If you insist on eating dairy, eat only raw milk and raw cheese from healthy goats. No cow’s milk and no pasteurized milk from any animal. Raw milk from healthy goats is much better than pasteurized cow’s milk.

If you want to be most healthy, consume no milk, no cheese, no ice cream.

Radiation, pesticides and other harmful chemicals concentrate high on the food chain in meat and dairy — causing cancer, birth defects and less immunity to disease.

I recommend these books — “Fit for Life II: Living Health” by Harvey and Marilyn Diamond, “Healing with Whole Foods” by Paul Pitchford, “Diet for the Atomic Age”

by Sara Shannon, “The China Study” by Dr. T. Colin Campbell and “Human Survival on a Plutonium-Contaminated Planet” by Charles Z. Hyder.

We’re all atheists not believing in other gods Editor, First, a brief study in any period of human history gives hard evidence that a belief in God does not promote morality and goodness.

The most horrific evils perpetrated by man use religion as an excuse. Witch burnings, the Crusades, civil wars, the Holocaust, 9/11; people killing each other over who has the better imaginary friend.

If a belief in God is the only thing making us good, that belief is failing. Personally, I think we need to be responsible for creating meaning in our own lives. The pursuit of meaning leads us to love, generosity, creativity and intellectual discovery. It is too depressing to think that we need a “Bogeyman” or someone who will dole out eternal rewards and punishment to frighten us into good behavior. Next, you have to admit that we are all “atheists”. It is simply a matter of which god/s and goddess/es you donnot believe in. Do you believe in Zeus, Coatlique, Baal, Vishnu?

No? Then you are an atheist. The god you believe in is an accident of birth.

If you believe that God planned your birth so you would be placed on a path to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ instead of Mohammed, does it follow that you are one of His chosen? I think your Muslim brothers may take offense. Or perhaps it is the other way round and you consider yourself more blessed, more loved by God, than your Christian friends. This is how conflicts begin.

course there are mysteries that we have yet to unravel, many phenomena cannot yet be explained through science. Before the invention of the microscope, it was widely believed that evil spirits caused illness. Before telescopes and mathematics, it was believed that the Earth was the center of the universe.

Many were martyred by the Church for speaking scientific truth.

The reality of our existence is so much richer and elegant than any supernatural creation myth could ever be. Consider what a rare and precious thing life is. And of course, it did not “just happen.” Life on Earth is the result of over 4 billion years of experimentation, of trial and error, by nature. Only human beings could be as arrogant and narcissistic as to believe that the Universe was created for them.

Egypt The Arab League in Cairo on Sunday announced its backing of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s rejection of Israel as a Jewish state. Amid peace talks between Israel and Palestine led by the United States, Abbas refused to heed the U.S. government’s advice to make the concession on Saturday, according to Reuters.

“We recognized Israel in mutual recognition in the (1993) Oslo agreement - why do they now ask us to recognize the Jewishness of the state?” Abbas said, according to Reuters.

Malaysia Officials on Sunday continue to search for the Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777 that went missing midflight.

Some officials suspect that the plane, which was carrying 239 people from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, crashed in Vietnam, as the Vietnamese government reported possible debris from the wreckage in the country, according to Reuters. Interpol reported that two passengers on the flight had stolen Austrian and Italian passports, and that it is still investigating several other “suspect passports,” Reuters reported.

Saudi Arabia An Islamist on Sunday was sentenced to eight years in jail by a Saudi court after he criticized the country’s security services on Twitter.

The court found the unidentified man guilty of inciting “families of those arrested for security reasons to protest by publishing Tweets and videos on YouTube,” according to the Agence France-Presse. AFP also reported that the court found the man guilty of charges of “mocking” Arabian King Abdullah and other Saudi Arabian scholars. Last month, King Abdullah announced that members of “terrorist groups” can be jailed for up to 20 years if found guilty.

South Africa As the first week of Oscar Pistorius’ murder trial ended this weekend, a Pretorian court has entertained more witnesses in the double amputee’s case. Pistorius allegedly killed his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine’s Day of last year and tried to cover it up. He claims it was an accident, according to the Associated Press. AP reported that Michelle Burger, a previous neighbor of Pistorius, narrated how she heard “blood-curdling” screams from Steenkamp the night of the murder.

Another neighbor also recounted how he found Steenkamp’s bloody body as Pistorius knelt next to the corpse that night.

Lobos secure a 12th inning win from UNLV

by Liam Cary-Eaves sports@dailylobo.com @Liam_CE

Timely hitting evaded the New Mexico baseball team against UNLV during Sunday’s 5-4 victory that took 12 innings to complete.

A costly error from right fielder Chase Harris forced UNM to score in the bottom of the 12th inning, and UNM stepped up.

“We thought we’d be playing good defense, which we’re not,” head coach Ray Birmingham said. “It’s just a young club. You don’t know what they do some days.”

Aside from a three-run third inning, senior pitcher Josh Walker threw an absolute gem through 9 1/3 innings by not allowing a single extra base hit or a walk in 115 pitches thrown. Although the Rebels did accumulate 14 hits against Walker, the team could not manage to do any damage with them.

“He’s going to give up a lot of hits, but he ain’t going to give up many runs,” head coach Ray Birmingham said.

Walker said that the third inning rough patch which plated three UNLV Rebels was a scuffle that he had to just work through.

“The little cappers, the little dinks that they had were falling that inning,” Walker said. “The goal is just to battle… runs are going to score every now and then.”

Walker certainly battled throughout the contest, allowing only two earned runs while fanning a pair of Rebels as well.

The win was important to get some momentum, Walker added, after dropping two in a row to UNLV (10-4, 5-1 MW).

“It was good to get one out of the three this weekend. Today was very important,” Walker said. “I’m happy with my performance today, given that it wasn’t my best day.”

UNM was able to tie the game in the bottom of the eighth inning after Chase Harris beat out a ground ball that was fumbled around by UNLV shortstop Matt McCallister.

Despite a ninth inning threat by UNLV, neither team was able to score until the 12th inning.

UNLV got their first extra-base hit with two outs in the top of the 12th before right-fielder Chase Harris botched a routine fly ball, allowing Erik VanMeetren to score.

Harris responded in the bottom half of the inning after a bunt with two runners on, forcing a throw from T.J. White, while Harris scurried down the first baseline to tie the ball game.

This set up a walk with nobody out, in order to allow the Rebels a shot at forcing a play at home.

However, pinch hitter John Pustay had other plans, as a tough dribbler to the shortstop proved to be the difference.

“I did that a lot last year. Actually I felt pretty comfortable doing it,” Pustay said of his walk-off role. “It was great for me because I have been struggling the past couple of games.”

UNM head coach Ray Birmingham said that he was discouraged by the way his upperclassmen played in the series loss to UNLV. “It’s the weirdest stuff I have ever seen. I think we have a curse on the team, I really do,” Birmingham said. “This is the first series that (UNLV has) won here in seven years.”

Rachel Toraño-Mark / @carpeline/ Daily Lobo Lobo player Lane Milligan receives praise from head coach Ray Birmingham and his teammates during the game against the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels on Sunday. The Lobos played 12 innings and won 5-4.

The Lobos have dominated the Rebels in recent seasons, winning 12 of the 14 times that the two teams have faced off.

“We have a young club and we went into the season knowing that we have a young club,” Birmingham said. “The two freshmen are leading the club in hitting.”

UNM looks to feed off of the late-game winner as the team will face ASU in Tempe, Az. on Wednesday.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO

Senior night win bolsters Lobos for championships

by Liam Cary-Eaves sports@dailylobo.com @Liam_CE

Confidence is a major component going into any tournament, let alone the Mountain West Conference Championships.

The New Mexico women’s basketball team has struggled all season late in games, and it has taken a toll on the team’s resilience.

Head coach Yvonne Sanchez said that the 62-46 victory over San Diego State on Friday night will help bolster her team’s push during tournament play.

“It’s not just the fact that we won, it’s the way we won,” she said. “It gives us some momentum going into the conference tournament.”

The Lobos were on the path to make the same mistakes that have plagued the team all season.

UNM led by as many as 16 points in the first half with a dominating performance defensively, forcing 18 turnovers and only committing five of its own.

However, SDSU was able to limit its mistakes and chopped the lead down to six points before redshirt senior Sara Halasz hit a trey to end the Aztecs’ run.

“The girls came out, stepped up, and did what they were supposed to do,” Halasz said. “We followed the game plan like we were supposed to.”

In her final game in The Pit, Sara Halasz recorded 14 points and ripped down seven boards claiming the player of the game award on Senior Night.

“A great feeling to do that on

my senior night,” Halasz said.

“Having fun with it in front of the crowd supporting me and having my parents here… it was a huge honor.”

Halasz only recorded one turnover and the team as a whole committed 10 turnovers the entire game. Replicating minimal turnovers is going to be a key to the Lobos success in the first round of the conference tournament against Utah State, according to Sanchez.

“We need to take care of the ball,” Sanchez said. “Utah State is a team that doesn’t do much pressuring. They are going to do even less than San Diego State, but we still had turnovers up there.”

Along with ball security, another major concern for the Lobos is going to be finding a way to stop guard Jennifer Schlott. Schlott has led the most potent offense in the league, and is atop the conference in points per game (27.2) and assists per game (5.7).

Schlott has been able to get through the Lobos’ defense during both occurrences, dropping 30 points on the Lobos in The Pit during the first meeting, followed by a 33 point scoring expedition in Logan, Utah.

“We’re playing a very good team, in my opinion, probably the best player in the conference,” Sanchez said of Schlott.

Utah State swept UNM in two very close games between the two squads this season. In the first meeting, New Mexico lost at home 69-75 despite a late surge, nearly erasing an 11-point deficit.

In Logan, Utah the Lobos

The Lobos defeated San Diego 62-46. struggled to close the door after having a one-point lead with 32 seconds remaining in the contest. A missed 3-pointer from Brea Mitchell and a foul committed by Bryce Owens allowed Jennifer Schlott to finish the game from the free throw line in a 67-65 loss.

“It’s hard to beat a team three times,” Salasz said. “It’s tournament time. It’s time to go.”

Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. today at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nev.

softball

Lobos 3-game sweep Titans

by Liam Cary-Eaves sports@dailylobo.com @Liam_CE

Home games have provided a luxurious safe-haven for the New Mexico softball team after a horrific start to the season.

UNM (7-14) completed its first sweep of the season and has won six of their last seven games at Lobo Field. Head coach Erica Beach said that coming home has done wonders to get the team back into the mentality that it needs.

“We just got a chance to get comfortable for a few weeks at home,” Beach said. “Get a chance to kind of settle in and gain our confidence, gain our swagger and come out and play like we know we can.”

Beach said that she scheduled fearsome games to start the season in order to get her squad ready to play at a high level.

“I threw the team right into the fire with our scheduling, and they didn’t even get a chance to catch their breath,” Beach said.

Page

With center Alex Kirk and forward Cameron Bairstow, who in my opinion should be the MW Player of the Year, the Lobos have a chance to finally scratch off that elusive Sweet 16 spot.

The Lobos went away from them in the last eight minutes of game time in the loss because of the pressure from the Aztecs 1-3-1 zone, but how many other tournament teams will be able to fluster UNM the way SDSU did?

There are not many teams who have the Aztecs’ length and athleticism across the board, and

there are fewer teams that can hold the Lobos’ offense scoreless over a long period of time.

As long as UNM does not get away from their devastating front court combo there should not be much worry in Lobo Land.

In the loss, Bairstow and Kirk combined for 33 points in through the first 28 minutes and recorded just one point in the final 12 minutes.

“We did lose our last game last year and I guess it’s the same thing,” Bairstow said. “It’s up to the guys and the coaching staff to be positive about it and bounce back from it.”

Regardless, a 24-6 regular-season campaign and a second place finish is nothing to scoff at and if Neal wins one more game this season he’ll have the winningest season ever for a first year coach at UNM. “You always want to win. I don’t know if its disappointment, but your goal is to win,” Neal said. “We were 15-3 in a league where we thought 14-4 would win it. That’s part of it and it’s a learning experience. They gave me everything they can.”

go five complete innings before UNM 8 run-ruled the Titans.

UNM redshirt freshman Tess McPherson has struggled from the circle thus far this season.

She threw 55 pitches in 2 innings, allotting three runs on five hits and three walks.

“We’re really working on her movement, her speed and getting ahead of hitters,” Beach said.

“She just wasn’t hitting her spots.

And honestly, they were hitting the ball.”

Pitcher Lisa Rodrigues then came into the ballgame with two runners on base and no outs. Rodrigues proceeded to toss a gem in a 4-3 ball game and did not allow a single hit during her three innings of work.

Beach said she called on Rodrigues early in order to protect what was a slim lead in the top of the third inning.

“We wanted to try to stop it before it got any worse or that they tied the ball game,” Beach said.

“We wanted to make a change while we still had the lead.”

The bats for UNM were dominant in the three-game sweep of the Detroit Titans, highlighted by a team average of .429, 29 runs and 25 extra base hits.

Freshman Jasmine Casados has remained on an absolute tear batting out of the five spot for UNM. Not even one week after winning her first Mountain West Player of the Week award, Casados went 6-7 at the plate, belting two doubles, a triple, a homer and seven RBIs. “It was a big surprise and I was really excited,” Casados said of the award. “Just to be relaxed and to be within myself and to play how I know how to play.”

Beach said that the expectations of Casados have always been high; it was just a matter of time until she found her stride.

“She’s an outright stud. She just wasn’t playing up to her potential the first three weeks,” Beach said. “She’s the best, if not one of the best players to come out of New Mexico.”

SDSU edges out UNM for MW title

by J.R. Oppenheim

assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim

SAN DIEGO — A monumental collapse dropped the New Mexico men’s basketball team into the No. 2 seed for next week’s Mountain West Basketball Championships.

The Lobos let a 16-point lead slip away at Viejas Arena in San Diego on Saturday, and San Diego State rallied for a 51-48 victory in the regular-season finale. UNM had won the last two MW regular-season crowns, including a share with SDSU in 2012.

The Aztecs won the Mountain West regular-season championship outright, securing the top seed for the conference tournament. The Lobos, as the second seed, will play either Fresno State or Air Force in Thursday’s second round in Las Vegas. Both teams had first-round byes already locked up.

Two big runs dictated the second half, the latter benefitting SDSU. UNM used a 15-0 rally to capture a 4125 lead. From there, SDSU battled its way back with a 19-1 run and forced New Mexico into several bad possessions, courtesy of a 1-3-1 zone.

“It was a very hard-fought game, and they changed the tempo on us and did some things we hadn’t seen,” head coach Craig Neal said. “They played 1-3-1 and we struggled with it.

I thought we’d be able to handle it and we didn’t do a very good job with that.”

SDSU coach Steve Fisher said assistant Justin Hutson talked to him about switching to the 1-3-1 zone earlier in UNM’s big run, but he hesitated. After a couple more Lobo baskets, Fisher switched to the zone with his team down 41-27.

“I said, ‘What the heck? We better try something,’” Fisher said. “We pulled it out.”

The decision worked to SDSU’s benefit. UNM missed five shots and turned the ball over six times, resulting in six Aztec points. For the game SDSU scored 22 points off 16 turnovers, considered the Aztecs’ bread and butter.

Guard Xavier Thames kicked into another gear after UNM’s 15-0 run.

The MW Player of the Year candidate netted eight points in SDSU’s comeback and finished with a game-high 23 points.

The New Mexico men’s basketball team is the No. 2 seed for next week’s Mountain West Basketball Championships. and Hugh Greenwood also found themselves in foul trouble, each picking up their fourth fouls during the Aztec rally.

“That hurt us, but that’s part of the game,” Neal said. “Fouls are a part of the game.”

UNM built its 41-27 lead in the second half off what it does best: working the ball inside to key big men Alex Kirk and Cameron Bairstow. The duo accounted for 11 of UNM’s 15 points over that four-minute span, while Williams and guard Deshawn Delaney added buckets over the run.

Bairstow said the Lobos went away from their working formula and

credited SDSU for doing a good job on the 1-3-1 zone.

“They’re long and athletic across the board, and I think it surprised a lot of guys and we weren’t able to settle down into a good flow against it,” he said. “When things went south, I don’t think we did a good job staying positive and staying composed.”

The Aztecs closed it out with a 26-7 scoring run. Over the last three minutes UNM missed another five shots.

UNM’s only make down out of the stretch came off a Williams 3-pointer as time expired. SDSU completed its largest second-half comeback since the 1996-97 season.

“We had a 16-point lead and everything was going good,” Neal said.

“Then we stopped getting stops defensively and getting them in transition.”

UNM held a 26-20 halftime lead, ending the first 20 minutes with a 13-2 run. Over the last 5:45, the Lobos picked up seven points from Bairstow, including two at the buzzer, and six from Kirk. The center scored backto-back field goals both off Bairstow assists. San Diego State had lead 1814 before the spurt.

Bairstow and Kirk were the only two Lobos to reach double figures, hitting 20 and 14, respectively. Kirk

registered a double-double with 11 rebounds, including 10 on the defensive end.

UNM scored the only two 3-pointers in the game, the first coming from Delaney at the 4:27 mark of the second half. Williams’ had the other with his end-of-game buzzer-beater. The teams combined for 2 of 23 from beyond the arc, and the Aztecs missed all nine attempts from long range.

The Lobos hit 45.2 percent from the field (19 of 42) and 66.7 percent from the free throw line (8 of 12), while SDSU was 39 percent on field goals (19 of 48) and 65 percent on free throws (13 of 20).

Lobos still have MW championships and NCAAs

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

New Mexico guard Hugh Greenwood attempts to keep the ball in Lobo possession against the Aztec’s defense in San Diego on Saturday. New Mexico will play either Fresno State or Air Force in Thursday’s second round in Las Vegas.

Aaron Sweet Daily Lobo

SAN DIEGO – Yes, it was a heartwrenching loss.

Yes, it was a breakdown of epic proportions.

But New Mexico’s 51-48 loss at No. 10 San Diego State does not change the overall picture for the Lobos.

UNM still earned the No. 2 seed in the upcoming Mountain West tourney in Las Vegas, Nev., and there is still the NCAA tournament starting on March 18. Even if the Lobos lose in MW Championships, they are still a lock for the NCAAs. Head coach Craig Neal said losing out on a chance to three-peat as MW regular-season champs stings, but he knows there is still more basketball to play.

“It will be tough and I’ll have to give them a couple of days off. I told them they have to keep their heads

up,” he said. “It’s not easy losing, because my kids are winners. They know how to win and they got a lot of pride… They’re tough kids and they’re resilient kids so I’m sure they’ll be back.”

The resilience that has served the Lobos so well during the regularseason will be tested in the weeks to come.

Throughout most of the season, UNM developed a killer instinct by being able to put away lesser teams.

Faltering with SDSU, a team that won 20 straight games at one point this season, is nothing to be ashamed of.

The loss will not look good in the eyes of poll voters, but the AP poll and the Coaches poll are nothing more than popularity contests that are meaningless.

UNM is still more than capable of making a run in March, something that Lobo fans are more than yearning for at this point in time.
