election kicks off

Alex McCausland / Daily Lobo / @alexkmccausland

Noah Dowling-Lujan & Ian Baker #4, #2 on ballot “Pro-homeless shelter, pro-union, pro-equity. We need to address systemic injustice, racism and sexual assault at UNM. This campus should benefit all of us, not just those in Greek life.” Liberty Stalnaker / Daily Lobo / @DailyLobo

By Hevyn Heckes & Lissa Knudsen @H_Squared90 @ lissaknudsen This year’s ASUNM election is anything but business as usual. Presidential and vice-presidential candidates have presented diverse and comprehensive platforms that moved beyond empty platitudes.

With the events of the past year fresh in their minds, the candidates have outlined their strategies for tackling the biggest issues still plaguing the UNM community. Undergraduates can vote online beginning on Monday March 8 by going to their myUNM student portal and selecting two of eight candidates — four running for president and four running for vice president. Each position is elected separately as opposed to

one united slate. The ASUNM president’s official duties include serving as the representative of the undergraduate student body and managing the executive branch, including the eight ASUNM agencies and executive boards, according to the ASUNM constitution. The vice president presides over the legislative body and ASUNM Senate, and makes appointments to senate committees.

The Daily Lobo met with the ASUNM candidates for a media “meet and greet” on March 4 to ask about their perspective on University governance, UNM’s past budgetary decisions and how they plan to advocate for students should they be elected. Greg Romero/ Ryan Regalado Former ASUNM Senate Finance Chair and Student Fee Review Board member Greg Romero, a

first-generation Hispanic student, will be the third presidential candidate on the ballot. Romero is running with Biochemistry senior Ryan Regalado. While some of the candidates advocated for radical changes like decreasing the athletics budget or making the student regent an elected position, Romero and Regaldo took a more moderate approach.

Romero said one of their campaign’s primary goals is to improve communication between students and the administration and to hold the UNM administration more accountable. “The unfortunate truth is that, as much power as the ASUNM president has had within the student body it hasn’t seemed to matter much in terms of the budget leadership team and our student fee requests,” Romero said. Regalado echoed this sentiment and said, “We can have a resolution for UNM admin accountability but we need to make sure the administration is coming to the table, willing to talk to students and being held accountable, and that way they cannot just blow all students off and not respond.” Though the Romero/Regalado slate seemed less than optimistic about being able to make substantial difference in budgetary decisions, they did propose some specific projects that they felt could make a difference in students’ campus experiences. For example, the slate advocated for improving campus safety by making the LoboGuardian App a more useful tool for all students. “We currently have a LoboGuardian app that was put out by UNM that has not worked out for any students,” Romero said. The app allows you to give your location to your designated guardians so they can track your whereabouts during a specified period of time and makes contacting the UNM Police Department easier by allowing for anonymous tips and automatically delivering your Smart911 profile to a police response team at the touch of a button. Romero explained that the app was intended to be used for “something as small as a light being out in your parking lot or (if ) you witness an assault at the Duck Pond.” Romero also said he and Regalado would work to find “alternative housing options” for the students who are part of the Native American Living and Learning Community (LLC), which is scheduled to dissolve this summer. Romero suggested reaching out to UNM housing and American Campus Communities (ACC), the private housing company that runs Lobo Village and on-campus housing, to help develop a housing alternative solution. ACC has been sued by college students across the nation for predatory practices. Romero said he would also like to work with American Indian Student Services (AISS) and other places on campus where Living and Learning Communities have worked in the past. “Whether that be directly on

campus (or) whether that be with American Campus Communities, something like that is maybe more efficient or works better for everybody involved,” Romero said.

statement of solidarity,” Olaguir said. “I wanted to make a statement and use my platform and my campaign, and all the publicity that this time gets, as a way of telling the university, hey (this matters).”

ing Learning Community here on campus, so I definitely understand how an LLC is something that is pivotal to a community and (ensures) you have a safe space to be who you are freely,” Hill said. Hill said if an LLC’s contract were to be jeopardized while he was president, he would do more than express his support for those who lost their living arrangements. “I would be writing legislation, in conjunction with that community and the UNM admin, to make sure that these spaces are there and they are equitable and feasible for (these) communities … I wouldn’t just speak (on this issue), I would take action to make it come true,” Hill said.

ing the regents) is a campus-wide reform that, once implemented, would benefit the students more than it would hurt them.” Running as the anti-establishment option, this duo prioritized funding the independent student paper and defunding ineffective surveillance public safety efforts. “We need people to hold us accountable. I think that starts foremost with our news. We need people (referring to the Daily Lobo) who have the resources — and we need to provide them the resources — to call us out when it needs to be called out,” Baker said. According to Dowling-Lujan, current efforts to add more lighting on campus have been ineffective at improving public safety, and similar projects have been spearheaded by Greek organizations for the purpose of improving public perception of the University . “Public safety is an important issue but I think mainly it affects disadvantaged students on campus,” Dowling-Lujan said. “We need to stop wasting money on things like spurious safety lights on campus. I know ASUNM recently requested $60,000 in the capital outlay budget to build safety lights around campus. I think that this is a waste of money and doesn’t contribute to anyone’s safety but for a certain select group.“ Regarding efforts to support housing insecure students, Dowling-Lujan said, “We need to have more housing opportunities for people in New Mexico who need somewhere to stay.” He agreed with the other candidates that as ASUNM president he would stand in support of the students who are members of the Rainforest LLC. “(That) was one of the few places where Native American students could actually gather and have affordable housing,” Dowling-Lujan said. “I think that — just like the student family housing center — is something that UNM needs to be reinvesting into rather than ignoring and dropping permanently.” The election will conclude on Wednesday, March 10 at 5 p.m. According to Joshua LaFayette, the ASUNM elections chair, photos of the winners will be posted to the ASUNM Elections Commission Instagram page as soon as the ballots have been tallied (likely between 6 and 7 p.m.).

ake ad Jacob Olaguir/Alina Le Former ASUNM senator Jacob Olaguir, a sophomore business student and first on the ballot, helped pioneer the establishment of an Asian Pacific American Cultural Center on campus. Olaguir is running with Alina Le, a sophomore studying East Asian studies with a double minor in biology and Spanish. While Olaguir and Le came across as less polished choices, they also read as less entrenched in ASUNM politics. Both seemed optimistic about their ability to enact change, possibly empowered by their history with community organizing. When asked how they would address the University’s bloated athletics budget, Olaguir said simply, “When it comes to the University’s financial matters, it’s best that we focus our attention back on the University’s ultimate goal and that’s providing higher education.” Rather than focus on public safety and increased surveillance on campus, their slate focused on efforts such as asset mapping to connect students in need with local resources. “On Instagram, I talked about developing a (COVID relief ) asset map. If (the Navajo Nation LLC) contract doesn’t come through, then this asset map is going to be pinpointing areas of relief including affordable housing locations,” Olaguir said. “I will appoint a director of diversity, equity and inclusion and I would have them provide training on how to fill out applications for affordable housing within different locations that are on the asset map.” While every presidential candidate expressed support for the graduate student employee unionization effort, Olaguir made the case that the inequitable treatment of graduate student employees might make prospective students reconsider applying. “I am an undergraduate working in an undergraduate research fellowship that’s preparing me for grad school, and if this is how graduate student workers are going to be treated then I might look into other schools,” Olaguir said. Olaguir was also the only candidate to say that he was already taking steps to make his support for the unionization effort public. “I do support the grad student union. I’ve signed their petition. I reached out to them in an email … I really wanted them associated with my campaign, so this weeked we are going to be working on a

Ricardo Hill/ Lauren Candland ASUNM Senator Ricardo Hill, a political science major and criminology minor, is the second presidential candidate on the ballot. Hill is running with Lauren Candland, a junior double majoring in criminology and organizational communications who serves as the current director of communication for the Mia Amin administration. Like Romero and Regalado, Hill and Candland bring extensive ASUNM experience, however they are less skeptical about their ability to work with the administration and influence budgetary decisions on campus. “The authority, when it comes to the budget, is not something I feel like is out of the reach of ASUNM president, if done correctly,” Hill said. “Not being transparent about the tuition increase was something that really divided (the) administration from students. I believe an ASUNM president has the ability to make those conversations happen.” Hill emphasized the importance of actionable plans in combination with legislative resolutions to improve communication between UNM administrators and the student body. Hill also said UNMPD should receive multicultural sensitivity training. A UNMPD officer was placed on paid administrative leave last fall after racist videos posted to their personal Tik Tok account were brought to light. “I also believe that the UNMPD should have personal training to understand our different multicultural groups here on campus,” Hill said. When asked what he would do as ASUNM president for unhoused and food insecure students, Hill said the Lobo food pantry on campus should be fully funded and that he would oppose building a wall around campus, referring to a previous campus security proposal that suggested erecting a 10-foot-tall iron fence around the University perimeter, as reported by the Albuquerque Journal. “I do not — and Lauren does not — support a wall around campus. I don’t think that we need another measure in which to divide us,” Hill said. When asked how he would respond to the Native American LLC contract being discontinued, Hill said he personally understood the importance of LLCs and would work hard to ensure that those students were able to maintain that living arrangement. “I am a member of the Black Liv-

Noah Dowling-Lujan/ Ian Baker Noah Dowling-Lujan, the fourth presidential candidate on the ballot, has not previously held office in ASUNM and ran an unsuccessful bid for ASUNM Senate in spring 2020. Dowling-Lujan, a third year political science major and president of the UNM College Democrats, is running with Ian Baker, a film & digital arts major. Where Hill and Candland were careful to state that they would not oppose the administration’s budgetary decisions unless the entire student body demanded it, Dowling-Lujan and Baker had an almost polar opposite take. “The (UNM) budget is not allocated correctly, we know this because students are suffering on campus. The budget does not work for the students,” Baker said. Dowling-Lujan came out strongly in favor of reforming the UNM Board of Regents selection process and said he opposed gubernatorial appointments of regents who had donated generously to the governor’s campaign. “We need to look at things like the thousands of dollars that Douglas Brown, who’s the President of the Board of Regents, has paid to Michelle Lujan Grisham before his appointment. I think that’s pretty suspicious and it’s a part of a long line of New Mexico’s history of corruption.” Dowling-Lujan said. Dowling-Lujan advocated for holding student body elections for the student regent, while the other three presidential candidates waffled and said there were pros and cons to changing the current process where the governor appoints. “The idea that we will have a just and fair system through unaccountable appointments for something as important as a (University governing) board is the wrong way to go about things,” Dowling-Lujan said. “People on campus have no idea who the student regent is, they don’t interact with them at all ...

‘Enough APD terror’: Protesters call for abolition over reform

City’s fatal police shooting rate remains highest in the country By Gabriel Biadora @gabrielbiadora On Friday, Feb. 26, local activists and community members gathered at the Albuquerque Police Department’s downtown headquarters to march for the abolishment of the heavily scrutinized force. They stood on the police department’s steps as they delivered their speeches to a crowd of about 70 people. The demonstration took place nine years to the day after Trayvon Martin was killed by neighborhood watch coordinator George Zimmerman and was organized by Fight For Our Lives Albuquerque (FFOL) — a local youth-led organization — All African People’s Revolutionary Party, Power Through Peace, Save the Kids from Incarceration and Allied People's Coalition. Jennifer Marley, of the Indigenous liberation organization Red Nation, recounted the 2014 police killing of James Boyd and castigated APD’s consistent brutalization of people of color and marginalized populations. “The people of Albuquerque, the families of those slain by the police, the Indigenous, the working class people of color and unsheltered communities have had enough of APD terror,” Marley said. Marley then recounted the killings of Navajo men Allison Gorman and Kee Thompson by three teenagers in 2014, a park ranger’s assault of Navajo and Oneida man Darrell House as he prayed at the Petroglyph National Monument late last year, the in-custody death of Joleen Nez this year at the Metropolitan Detention Center and the fatal shooting of Claude Trivino by APD last month. Several of the speakers — including FFOL vice president Diego Guerrerortiz — mentioned that New Mexico has the country’s highest rate of fatal police shootings per capita, according to a Washington Post database. New Mexico has now been in the top three for four years in a row. As the first round of speakers concluded just before 8 p.m., the march commenced as FFOL co-founder Zoey Craft led the group. “No cops! No KKK! No racist USA!” Craft called, and the procession rever-

berated. Signs bobbed up and down as the marchers forged ahead from Fifth Street to Lomas Boulevard. One demonstrator had fastened yellow lights to illuminate ”Abolish the Police” on their sign; another read “Jail Killer Cops.” Around 8:30 p.m., the march halted at Lomas next to the Metropolitan Courthouse for more calls to action. Among them was Clifton White, a community organizer whose arrest during Albuquerque’s Black Lives Matter protests last summer ignited viral demands for his release. “The power of the people is strong. The power of the people is demanding change — demanding the abolishment of all these oppressive systems,” White said, his voice filling the street.

White credited the solidarity of the community with helping end his incarceration last year, attributing his release to their protests and advocacy. White was released on Oct. 29. “This unity here is beautiful,” White said to the crowd. “You guys united together, and staying together brought me home. So many people behind the walls have seen this, seen the struggle, seen ‘Free Clifton White,’ seen the banners, seen ‘fuck the police’ ... That's how we change this system.” Later, as the march continued, White was asked why he preaches abolishment over reform. “You can't reform something that was designed to build off of slavery,” White said, referring to the exception clause in the 13th

Amendment of the Constitution that allows for slave labor in the case of criminal punishment. Since 2014, APD has been in a Court Approved Settlement Agreement (CASA) with the Department of Justice after an investigation found unconstitutional patterns “of use of excessive force, including unreasonable deadly force.” The federal intervention by the DOJ aimed to reform the department by ensuring it’s acting in accordance with the Constitution, with largely poor results thus far. James Ginger, the court-appointed independent monitor of the APD, was tasked with evaluating the department’s compliance with the settlement agreement last year, an undertaking that cost an initial $4 million. In Ginger’s semiannual

report, the monitor concluded that APD maintained a toxic trajectory that reflects a “deliberate indifference to the requirements of the CASA,” citing serious deficiencies in training, discipline, oversight, supervision and leadership. A resolution was passed in 2015 requiring the city and the police department to keep a record of the CASA’s expenditures. The CASA has spent nearly $34 million as of 2019’s third quarter before the records stopped being published. While the DOJ investigation has addressed some fundamental flaws within the department — like the negligence of use of force investigations by the Internal Affairs Division — no mentions of the racism that pervades the core of policing or the animosity the department has toward the city’s unhoused population have yet been made. For Ernest Sturdevant, who was part of the initial community coalition to appeal for the federal intervention, the DOJ failed in its attempt to reform APD. This failure, according to Sturdevant, can be traced to New Mexico’s colonial past and present and the oligarchy of the military industrial complex. “The DOJ didn't have any findings of racism in their investigation — that speaks of incompetence,” Sturdevant said. The Feb. 26 demonstration ended peacefully around 9:30 p.m., but the echoes of the activists lingered and persisted in their declaration that APD is beyond reform. “We have to understand that increased reform is not going to fix this system, (which) is specifically designed to harm people of color and other minorities,” Guerrerortiz said. “It's working exactly the way it's supposed to, and it's going to continue doing that no matter how much reform is present. While we welcome any new kinds of changes, we are calling for abolition, because that's what's needed.” Gabriel Biadora is a beat reporter at the Daily Lobo.

Golden Globes fail to avoid controversy — again Lack of representation continues to plague Hollywood awards

By Shelby Kleinhans @BirdsNotReal99 In a year unlike any other for film and television, filmmakers, actors and crew members nevertheless persisted to get their work out in time to contend for the 2021 Golden Globes. No one was sure what the award ceremonies would look like, but now they know: sketchy comedy, Zoom acceptance speeches and predictable controversy. The Globes aired the evening of Feb. 28, and hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler — tuning in from opposite ends of the country — made short work of addressing the most pressing controversy. Both women called out the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which constitutes the voting body for the Golden Globes, for having zero representation of Black journalists within its 87 members. The HFPA attempted to assuage critics with a trite speech, given by HFPA president Ali Sar, vice president Helen Hoehne and board chair member Meher Tatna, best summed up by the phrase “too little, too late.” Following the ceremony, Tina Tchen, the president and CEO of the charity Time’s Up, sent a statement to the HFPA which — amongst other criticisms — stated: “The problems with the HFPA cannot be addressed simply by a

search for new members who meet your self-declared membership criteria. That criteria reflects a fundamental lack of understanding of the problems at hand.” The Time’s Up organization was created in 2018 by a group of Hollywood celebrities in response to the growing awareness of sexual violence in the industry and since then has continued to fight for safety and equity in the workplace. Oscar-nominated director Ava DuVernay, a prominent member of the movement, tweeted out on Sunday night in an attempt to get the hashtag #TimesUpGlobes trending on Twitter. The lack of representation in the HFPA was reflected in the apparent lack of nominations in the Best Picture — Drama category for critical hits like Spike Lee’s “Da 5 Bloods,” Shaka King’s “Judas and the Black Messiah,” Regina King’s “One Night in Miami” and George C. Wolfe’s “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.” Another point of contention in the ceremony, but also celebration, was in the Best Director category. The HFPA has only nominated eight women in the category in 78 years, and a record-breaking three were nominated for this year’s award: Chloé Zhao for “Nomadland,” Regina King for “One Night in Miami” and Emerald Fennell for “Promising Young Woman.” In a glass ceiling-shattering moment, Zhao won the award, becoming the second woman

to do so after Barbra Streisand won the award for “Yentl” in 1984. Zhao is also the first Asian woman to win the award and the second Asian filmmaker to ever win after Ang Lee won in 2001 and 2006 for “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” and “Brokeback Mountain,” respectively. Zhao also graciously accepted the Globe for Best Picture in the final highlight of the night, causing David Fincher to take another shot as his film “Mank” lost the sixth straight category for which it was nominated. The longest-lasting controversy for this year’s affairs started back in December when the nominations were announced. The U.S.-produced “Minari” was declared ineligible for the category of Best Picture and instead was relegated to the Best Foreign Language Film nomination. To be explicitly clear, there is nothing “foreign” about a film that explores the life of a Korean American family pursuing their hopes and dreams after moving from California to Arkansas. Writer and director Lee Isaac Chung created the semi-biographical film after being raised as a first generation American. The film was even financed and distributed by United States companies Plan B and indie darling A24. It all boils down to an antiquated “50% rule,” which requires that a film be spoken in English for at

least half of the runtime in order to qualify outside of the Best Foreign Language Film category. Korean is spoken for the majority of “Minari,” which was cited as the reason for its categorization. Scott Feinberg, writing for The Hollywood Reporter, said that from 2006 to 2009 films with a majority of their financing and creative input from the United States “wouldn’t be allowed to compete in the foreign language category in order to save spots for productions without ties to America.” If that rule were still in place, “Minari'' would have been in the Best Picture — Drama category and could’ve had a shot to take the most coveted award of the night.

Fortunately, the team didn’t walk away empty-handed, and in one of the cutest moments of the night Chung accepted the win for Best Foreign Language Film with his young daughter on his knee. Addressing the controversy in his acceptance speech, Chung said: “It goes deeper than any American language and any foreign language. It’s a language of the heart, and I’m trying to learn it myself to pass it on. I hope we’ll all learn how to speak this language of love to each other, especially this year.” Shelby Kleinhans is a beat reporter at the Daily Lobo.

Mural by Albuquerque artists depicts iconic musicians across decades By Sarah Bodkin @sarahbodkin4 The famous faces of Lady Gaga, Prince, Mac Miller and David Bowie grace a new mural behind the El Rey Theater on Seventh Street. The project was the result of a collaborative effort by 44 local artists to honor famous musicians both past and present. Nazario Sandoval, the artist coordinator for the new public artwork, said he initially planned for 10 artists to create the mural but the

painting process turned into a community-building event, full of local artists and music lovers. The budget for the project was originally $1,000 but quickly tripled as the community of artists working on it increased. Sandoval funded the entire project himself. Local artist Itzel Meléndez painted Mac Miller’s portion of the wall. “He’s been there as a guide to help me through the highs and lows of my life,” Meléndez said of Miller. “Since I was 15, he’s been one of my favorite artists.”

Sandoval said that the people who contributed to painting the wall were “such an eclectic, diverse array of artists.” The differing ages of the artists resulted in a diversity of local legends, such as Al Hurricane, who died in 2017, and rapper Wake Self, who died in 2019 following a car crash, to be featured on the wall. Meléndez said a lot of people from younger generations were happy to see Miller painted on the wall. Sandoval said he helped create a community of up-and-coming

New Mexican artists, whom he called “the most talented people in the state.” The painting session, which he referred to as a “paint jam” was COVID-safe as well, with everyone at the event wearing masks and socially distanced. Sandoval gave each of the artists creative freedom in deciding who and how they wanted to paint. “You’ll always get an artist’s best work if you let them do what they want to do,” Sandoval said. Meléndez said it’s rare for commissioned artists to have any

creative freedom and was grateful that Sandoval allowed the artists to “take the ropes” on the project. “I didn’t really know there were all these artists in the community,” Meléndez said, speaking about how the pandemic has isolated many artists. “I feel like we’re all so spread apart, but with these projects, it just brings us all together.” Sarah Bodkin is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo.

REVIEW

‘Minari’: A gentle tale of the immigrant experience By John Scott

@JScott050901 If there were one thing that could connect almost every family living in the United States, it would be the immigrant figure. Perhaps one who came over from the east, greeted by the Statue of Liberty and landing on Ellis Island, or one who crossed the southern border without looking back, only looking forward to opportunities in a new home. These universal experiences are where “Minari,” released virtually on Feb. 12 by indie film company A24, finds its heart. “Minari” is a semi-autobiographical tale, written and directed by Lee Isaac Chung, that follows a Korean family of four moving from California to Arkansas in search of a new life. Steven Yuen brilliantly portrays the father, Jacob Yi, who plans on starting a farm so that he and his wife, Monica Yi (played by Han

Ye-ri) can abandon their makeshift careers as chicken sexers. Much of the emotional crux of the film relies on the tension between Jacob and Monica. Early on in the film, the family is huddled around the TV as a massive thunderstorm barrels down on their mobile home. We see the two parents disagreeing over the severity of the tornado as their conversation escalates into a full-on argument after the storm has passed. Their children, a young and rambunctious boy named David and a calm, more mature Anne, create paper airplanes that “Don’t Fight” and throw them into the room where their parents are arguing. It’s important to note that “Minari'' is largely in Korean. However, this doesn’t make it any less of an American film. “Minari'' made headlines when the Golden Globes announced that it would only be eligible in the Best Foriegn Language Film category. Besides being produced and distributed in the U.S. by companies based in the coun-

try, its subject matter and thematic messaging wholly centers around the immigrant experience in the United States. Later on, we are introduced to Paul (played by Will Patton), a hyper-religious Korean War veteran who sells Jacob a tractor and then comes to work on his farm. Even as Jacob makes progress, Monica is still hesitant about their future in Arkansas. Her work, combined with a lack of friends, leaves her missing her life in California. To remedy this, Jacob invites her mother, Soon-ja (perfectly played by Youn Yuh-jung) to join them in Arkansas. Soon-ja arrives from Korea with an assortment of local Korean foods and gifts in hand. David remains reluctant toward her presence, despite Soon-ja gifting him a set of playing cards, frequently saying that “she isn’t a real grandma.” The development of David and Soon-ja’s relationship is certainly the most entertaining aspect of “Minari” and might make

you reach for the tissue box by the end of the film. Still, the arrival of the grandmother doesn’t fully remove Monica’s Arkansas-induced melancholy, so Jacob suggests that the family attend a local church. Chung uses the church and religion to analyze how people react to cultural differences, lending the film much more depth and nuance. At the church, with a congregation consisting of solely white people, we are exposed to one of the only moments where we catch a glimpse of the world outside of the farm. Here, a young boy asks David why his face is so flat, while another young girl asks Anne to stop when she says something in Korean and proceeds to unintentionally mock her by saying a series of stereotypical syllables associated with Asian languages. Shortly after though, David asks his mother to have a sleepover with that same boy and, immediately following, Anne stops the girl when she accidentally

stumbles upon a word in Korean. Both the other boy and girl say or do something extremely offensive, but Chung resolves that tension by demonstrating that since they’re both children, they don’t know any better. He doesn't forgive the two children’s actions, instead showing David and Anne’s willingness to set aside their cultural differences. “Minari” is a reminder that, no matter what sort of barriers may stand between us, there are certain experiences that are universal to each and every one of us. With a quiet and reserved beauty, amplified through Lachlan Milne’s elegant cinematography and Emile Mosseri’s warm and hopeful score, the film packs an emotional resonance that few films this year — and indeed, in general — can offer.

PHOTO STORY

Lobos lock up No. 1 seed in MW tournament after sweep By Jesus Mata @JesusMataJr99 The University of New Mexico women’s basketball team completed the sweep against Colorado State to not only clinch the No. 1 seed in the Mountain West Conference tournament, but also secure their first regular season title since 2005. The team held on to win with a final score of 71-62. New Mexico held a 38-32 advantage at halftime, with guard Ahlise Hurst leading the Lobos in scoring with 12 points. The team then came out the gates strong in the second half, scoring 10 points in the first two minutes of the third quarter. However, Colorado State tied the game at 58-58 with just over five minutes left in the game. UNM responded by outscoring the Rams 13-4 down the stretch, securing the win.

“For one, to play a team as well coached and as talented as Colorado State is, you have to be locked in,” head coach Mike Bradbury said in his opening statement. Hurst scored 21 points while Shaiquel McGruder led the team with 15 rebounds. “It’s nothing different than another game. I just come out and play how I play,” Hurst said. “My team is amazing, that’s why I can do what I do.” The team was able to hoist up the Mountain West trophy on their home court despite not being able to practice in New Mexico until just a few weeks ago. The Lobos will now enter the MW tournament riding a four game winning streak. Seniors Jaedyn De La Cerda and Antonia Anderson both said that the team approached the season with an “us against everybody” mentality. “A lot of people counted us out. For us to be in this position and

actually pull it off, that speaks to how tough our team is mentally,” Anderson said. Bradbury also spoke to the team’s resilience, and reflected on how their stint away from home influenced their chemistry and development. “I think in a weird way, it might have helped us. Our team was more connected to each other this year than it’s ever been,” Bradbury said. “We played hard, we played together, we found our identity early that we were going to bomb a bunch of threes (and) play really fast, and we hung our hat on that.” The Lobos will automatically advance to the quarterfinal and play the winner of the Air Force vs. San Diego State matchup on Monday, March 8.
