‘Black and blue’ panel examines cultural rifts

By Fin Martinez

Law enforcement officers speak at the Know Your Rights panel on Thursday evening at the SUB. The event was hosted by the Black Student Union as part of an initiative to help bring awareness to citizens about their rights when dealing with police officials.

Student one giant leap from Mars mission Gallegos is among the finalists for the Mars One mission to Mars in 2024

By Jyllian Roach Kids often say they want to be astronauts when they grow up, but graduate student Zach Gallegos has never wavered from that dream.

And now he’s closer than ever to getting that chance. After surviving two elimination rounds, he’s made it into the final 100 candidates for a mission to Mars.

“It’s definitely a feeling of excitement and fulfillment. It’s like my life’s work, my life’s plan, paid off,” Gallegos said.

With only one more round until the final 24 potential astronauts begin their training for the Mars One Mission, Gallegos said he’s stepped up his personal exercise schedule to prepare for the dangerous and taxing travel to the Red Planet.

“Gravity is resistance; every day you’re on Earth, you’re doing resistance training,” he said. “But in space, there is no gravity. So the whole way out there I’ll have a lack of that resistance that I’m used to, which means that my muscle mass will go down and my bone density will go down also. So the more muscle I have leading up to that is a good thing.”

Gallegos’ seven-day-a-week workout regimen includes rock climbing, biking, running, weight

In the wake of numerous deadly encounters between police and African Americans across the country, an intense national debate has been raging about the intersection of police brutality and race. Last week UNM students joined the conversation by inviting black police officers to share their experiences on the front lines of this battle.

On Feb. 19 the UNM Black Student Union held a conference titled “Do You Know Your Rights?”, an event held in conjunction with Black History Month featuring a panel of African American police officers answering various questions about law enforcement issues and the difficulties of being both an African American and a police officer, or being “black and blue.”

“For me, being a black law enforcement officer is one of the most challenging things I’ve ever faced in my life,” said officer Dajun Clark. “Just for the simple fact that when we walk into a room we don’t get the benefit of the doubt, and that’s one of the major things that I’ve noticed.”

According to the National Institute of Justice website, minorities are more likely than

lifting and calisthenics for at least two hours. Now Gallegos said he’ll spend about double that time training his body each day.

Training is not the only thing Gallegos is changing, either. He said he is shifting his diet to more closely resemble the menu options that will be available on Mars.

His meals now consist of a protein shake and fruit for breakfast, a steak or burger for lunch and salad and chicken for dinner. He has already sworn off candy and sweets, but he said the hardest part will be giving up meat.

“The thing I’m going to have to train myself off of is the meat, because you don’t have cows and chickens running around on Mars,” he said.

Protein on Mars will have to come from other sources, he said.

Insects, like crickets and worms, are a popular idea for protein for the Mars One participants.

Gallegos said his idea is to send tilapia eggs on the mission so that the team can raise fish.

In the end, he said he’s preparing for the leanest possible circumstance for the trip.

“I’ll probably go fairly vegan about two years in advance,” he said.

UNM President Bob Frank said he’s ecstatic about Gallegos’ move into the top 100 for Mars One. “He’s quite an amazing guy.

I’m very impressed with him. He’s like one of our Rhodes applicants,” Frank said.

Frank said he has not yet met Gallegos, but he’s looking forward to doing so soon. He said he’s not surprised that a UNM student would be on this list, though.

Amidst criticism from advocacy agencies, the Albuquerque Family Advocacy Center is defending its policy of requiring sexual assault survivors to undergo background checks, or safety assessments as they are now called, before being treated by specially trained nurses and receiving other services that only they provide.

Teresa D’Anza, program director at Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners, said she agrees with the policy, and that it has never come up as an issue for those who come seeking services.

SANE, which is housed within AFAC, provides important medical services to sexual assault survivors, such as rape kits used to identify assailants.

“I have nurses here who are going to be in an exam room with a patient, and knowing what’s in their background allows them to be vigilant if they need to,” she said. “We get very complimentary feedback from our clients about the services they get while they’re here. None of our patients so far have complained about background checks.”

Do you think UNM should remove Columbus Day from its holiday calendar?

“I don’t see why not; I’m not very opinionated. It’s a national holiday for a reason … there’s too much behind it. It could go either way, and I’m not very political or biased about it.”

“I am an instructor and I said ‘Happy Genocide Day.’ We don’t get the day off, so that’s good … so yes.”

“I don’t think it’s a particularly good holiday, to be honest. I understand the concept that, yes, he was the European founder. It’s not a real holiday; I’ve never had Columbus Day from college or from work either. On Columbus Day, just educate people on Columbus and give them a good backdrop on it.”

“Yeah, what the hell, remove it.

I have a negative association with this day. I think it’s not something that should be celebrated because — I don’t know, I think of it as a day of bloodshed, people are raped of their land.”

“Well, he did go unwelcomed, killed a whole genocide. Him and his partners raped their women. I feel like that wasn’t right — maybe they could have made peace instead of taking all the credit when it was already inhabited. So yes, it should be.”

“It’s a national holiday, is it not? So I feel like we should reflect what the nation chooses.

If the nation decided to remove Columbus Day from its yearly calendar then it would be good for UNM to reflect that.”

whites to view law enforcement with suspicion and distrust due to reports that the police disproportionately single them out because of their race or ethnicity.

“The way you get treated by your own people is what shocks me most,” NM State Police officer Anwar Sanders said. “If you pull over a black man, you’ll get comments like ‘Why’d you choose that side?’ or ‘How could you do that?’ And coming from the kind of community I come from, sometimes I’m not friends with people anymore because I’m a cop.”

In 2014 Sanders wrote an open letter to African Americans protesting against police across

Policy

the U.S. in which he addressed his pride for his community’s unity, but also his concern for the double life he leads as a law enforcement officer and as an African American male.

Sanders’ letter states that while in uniform he is a peacekeeper and a protector of the people with the ability to save lives, but when he takes off the badge he assumes another identity — a polar opposite identity, where “white women who clutch their bags” and convenience store clerks who follow him through the store are common social interactions.

“It’s just hard to sit in silence and not have a voice,” Sanders said in an interview with CNN. “Especially when it offers such a real, authentic

point of view that some white officers or other minority officers cannot emulate.”

The conference presented questions like “Why is community policing important?” and “What are the challenges of being ‘black and blue’ in society?”

In addition to these questions, the conference also provided an opportunity for the officers to give advice to young African Americans about how to act when they encounter law enforcers.

“My advice to anybody would be ‘give us a chance to explain ourselves,’” Rio Rancho Police officer Jason Bowie said. “A lot of the time when we contact people they don’t know the reason they’re being contacted.”

Bowie continued to explain that law enforcement becomes more wary of individuals who behave in an apprehensive manner toward police.

“When you start taking off running and I got a third party call telling me you may be breaking into a house or a car and you look suspicious, I have the right to investigate,” he said.

According to NIJ.gov, media also influence perceptions of law enforcement. The site states that “frequent exposure to media reports of police abuse or corruption is a strong predictor of perceptions of misconduct and supports the belief that it is common.”

Sanders’ letter suggests ways to help relations between the

African American community and law enforcement, such as verbal engagement on a personal level to improve interactions, and to recruit more officers from the African American community.

“We have to listen to the community and their concerns and obviously we have some problems that maybe we’re overseeing,” APD officer Tyrone Chambers said. “I think meetings like this are positive. It’s a first step.”

due to the background check.

“First thing we always say is, ‘Are you okay? What can we do?’ And the second thing we always say is, ‘Do you want medical treatment?’”

Barber said. “If they say yes, I say, ‘Okay, just so you know, you’ll have to have a background check’ — and that’s it. There is no conversation beyond that. We’re never going to get one of our clients to go down to SANE to get a rape exam anymore.

Before the check it was very difficult to get girls to go anyway, because the SANE offices are located in the police department.”

AFAC shares a building with an Albuquerque Police Department substation, and Barber said she thinks the proximity of that substation should leave no additional cause for safety concerns or policies to address those concerns.

“They are going to have the best response time of anybody in the city because they are in a police department,” she said. “They have 10 armed officers who will be there

within seconds because they are literally across the hall.”

Street Safe sees two to three women a week who say they were sexually assaulted, but none of these women alert APD, she said.

“They keep saying they won’t arrest any (victims), but they won’t put that in the policy,” she said. “It’s a stupid policy; it’s incredibly stupid and incredibly discriminatory.

You’re re-victimizing these rape victims, you’re treating them like criminals — (AFAC) is making Albuquerque a haven for rapists.”

D’Anza said there is no reason for those seeking services to worry about being arrested.

“We don’t do background checks here in order to arrest people. We do background checks here to make sure that we’re aware if we have someone who could potentially be of harm or danger to people who are in this facility,” D’Anza said. “To my knowledge — and I’ve been here since 2008, I came here three months after the facility opened — nobody has ever been

arrested. The policy has probably been poorly worded in the past, but when you write policies you don’t expect them to be scrutinized by the entire community.”

D’Anza said the policy has been used since AFAC opened in 2007, but since a Standard Operating Procedure review last year the policy has been consistently applied to everyone who enters the office.

“It’s been used on and off, sporadically, inconsistently, since it was implemented in 2007. But the fact of the matter is, there are background checks done here at the AFAC. You might not know whether you would be the person who was asked to provide the information, but it was occurring,” she said. “We’re working on making it so that the policy more properly reflects what the activity is about, which is to keep people safe.”

If people wish to remain anonymous, or if the results of a background check flag them as a security risk, they are never denied services, D’Anza said. People

in those situations can instead meet with AFAC employees in a room just off the lobby. However, because of the room’s small size and lack of equipment, full sex assault examinations cannot be done there, she said.

D’Anza said APD lieutenants are also alerted if an AFAC employee is meeting with someone who either refused or failed the background check.

“We want to make sure that we are as accessible as we can be to those who want to seek services here, but we’re not a perfect fit for everybody in the community — just like no agency is,” she said. “We do our best. There are a lot of really high-quality services provided out of this facility, so I hate for people to think that they can’t come here because they might get arrested.”

However, some survivors may never come close enough to AFAC to even complain about the policy.

A woman who referred to herself as Red to protect her identity said she has been raped five times since she became homeless six years ago. She has received medical treatment from a hospital after she was assaulted, but said she would not seek medical treatment if a background check was required.

“When you bring up everything with the police, they don’t care. I would not do it because it’s none of their business what my background is. Sure wouldn’t, and they’re going to arrest me now,” she said. “I don’t want to make it worse than it is.”

Christine Barber is executive director at Street Safe New Mexico, a nonprofit working to protect prostitutes and other marginalized women. Barber and her associates at Street Safe do outreach with women who are addicted, homeless or street-based sex workers. She said not one of her clients is willing to go to AFAC for help anymore,

LETTERS

Employment precarious for University staff Editor, Although the administration is perpetually exhorting the UNM community to buy more corn dogs at the ball game, or to buy them a new gym that will photograph better in brochures, I would like to direct the reader’s attention toward another matter.

UNM (or is it WisePies? Or, as former President David Schmidly maintained, WalMart?) is most properly understood as a tax-exempt corporation operating a sports franchise and an academic theme park.

Accordingly, the actual management of UNM employees is by the Wal-Mart corporate model: every employee is seen as a black mark against departmental management.

At the Center for High Technology Materials, staff was laid off with just four

Freedom of speech one of few rights defended Editor, The United States strongly supports many bloody regimes now: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Pakistan and Mexico. The United States strongly supported many bloody past regimes: El Salvador, Philippines,

weeks’ notice after decades of documented excellent service.

UNM’s policy is to only relocate laidoff staff into the identical position in another department. Since the total UNM employment pool is quite small and highly specialized for a state agency, there may be less than a half dozen identical positions within the University. The chances of an opening occurring within the requisite sixmonth time frame are frequently virtually nil.

True, you are allowed to beg for consideration for a different position which may not even pay the bills, but begging is not the way to be successfully invited into a department.

I wish to point out the following items: 1. After promising health care for those employees who had devoted their lives toward advancing the University mission until their retirement, UNM spun retirees off into an isolated high-risk pool and simultaneously slashed UNM’s share of the premium

contribution. UNM Regent Jamie Koch, who made his wealth in insurance, is apparently an expert at running insurance in reverse — concentrating risk rather than diffusing it.

2. UNM does not guarantee payout of your earned annual leave. Instead, an employee may be required to use their earned leave time before departure. This effectively allows transfer of your earned benefits back to the University. Scoreboards do cost money.

3. A credentialed engineer with 10 years’ experience at our “flagship” institution may earn $45,000 per year — half of market rate.

Accordingly there is an expectation of (seemingly nonexistent) institutional stability.

4. UNM now provides larger percentage salary increases for faculty than for staff, further widening the already substantial bimodal salary distribution.

5. UNM recently increased the years of service requirement before retirement to 30

years. However, UNM only provides 30 days’ notice to staff before termination. Evidently our distinguished regents, when not selling insurance, are doing their best to preserve an asymmetric universe.

Regardless of what you may have been told, UNM employees are always 30 days away from the unemployment line and are actually working month to month. Make no mistake about it. I urge those presently working at UNM, and those considering it, to fully understand this as it pertains to their own circumstances. Those persons wishing to dedicate their lives to public service have many superior options.

After all, you can easily do better than Wal-Mart.

Guatemala, Haiti, Chile, Iran, South Africa, Argentina and Indonesia.

The main goal — worldwide — of the U.S. government is grabbing more wealth, resources and cheap labor by any means necessary, regardless of how many millions are robbed, tortured, starved, imprisoned and murdered.

The main goal — worldwide — of the U.S. government is not now and never has

been genuine democracy, freedom, justice and human rights. In dozens of nations the United States is now and has always been the enemy of genuine democracy, freedom, justice and human rights.

Sadly, many U.S. voters, students, soldiers and taxpayers do not know this truth.

In many U.S.-backed bloody regimes, past and present, I could face torture, prison and execution if I spoke out publicly there as I do here.

Here, we have some freedom of speech left. Before we lose it, we better use it for our good and the good of all people on Earth.

Planets in ‘Goldilocks zone’ around their stars are best suited for life.

By Timothy P. Howsare ROSWELL — Is there life on other planets?

Dr. Van Romero, a respected physicist, believes there is. But for life to survive millions of light years away from Earth, conditions such as temperature and atmosphere would have to be similar to what we find on Earth.

Romero calls this “the Goldilocks zone,” a range around a star in which conditions would not be too hot, like Venus or Mercury in our own solar system, or too cold, like Jupiter or Saturn.

And, just like with everything that belonged to Mama Bear, conditions would have to be “just right” for life to exist on another planet, either in our own Milky Way or some far-off galaxy.

Romero was the guest speaker Feb. 12 at the Rotary Club’s weekly lunch meeting.

He is vice president for research and economic development at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology in Socorro, and beyond his work in astronomy has appeared as a guest on numerous TV programs explaining terrorist bombings. For 10 years he led the International Law Enforcement Academy in Roswell.

Romero spoke on the Magdalena Ridge

et — the planet that is not too hot, not too cold,” he said.

He posed the question, “Are there other solar systems like ours, or is ours unique?”

What might make our solar system special, he said, is large, gaseous planets like Jupiter and Saturn spinning around in the outer obits of our solar system.

He believes these big planets could be acting like shepherds, protecting the Earth and the other inner planets from a “rogue planet.”

The Magdalena Ridge Observatory MRO is located on 1,000 acres at 10,600 feet in the Magdalena Mountains of the Cibola National Forest in New Mexico, making it the fourth-highest observatory in the world.

The MRO consists of two major facilities: an operational 2.4-meter fast-tracking telescope and Magdalena Ridge Observatory Interferometer (MROI), a 10-element optical/infrared interferometer, which is now under construction.

Romero said the optical telescopes each observe light, and then through tubes the light is combined to create a single, enormous image.

“I am convinced there is life outside our solar system,” he said. “I believe in this century we will discover life.”

Observatory — or MRO — part of the NearEarth Object Observations Program, which looks for large objects from space that come near the Earth. The program is commonly called Spaceguard. Scientists survey the skies to look for large objects such as asteroids.

Romero said he is among those scientists on a “search for ET.” Remember the movie “Contact” starring Jodie Foster? That was filmed near Socorro at the Very Large Array (VLA) telescope site, where great big dishes are aimed at the sky searching for radio waves from distant celestial bodies.

Romero said the VLA scopes were built to study pulsars: rotating stars that send out radio waves. But after the scopes started probing the skies, astronomers started finding things scientists didn’t even know existed, Romero said.

Romero said there are 3,000 known planets in other star systems.

“I am convinced there is life outside our solar system,” he said. “I believe in this century we will discover life.”

Romero said he hopes that discovery is made in the first half of the century, while he is still alive.

Lobos carry blustery day

It wasn’t the prettiest baseball at Lobo Field on Sunday.

In part due to blustery conditions, New Mexico and Air Force combined to make nine errors — six of which belonged to the Falcons — in the Lobos’ 15-5 victory.

Air Force committed five errors in the first three innings to help UNM build a 9-3 lead. The Lobos stayed disciplined at the plate, drawing six walks over that same time frame. As a team, the Falcons combined for 12 walks.

“We thought there would be command problems (for pitchers) because of the cold weather,” head coach Ray Birmingham said.

“We felt that we could throw more strikes and play more catch than they could. We worked deep in the count, and that was the difference in the ball game.”

Freshman reliever Luis Gonzalez (2-0) earned the victory for the Lobos after allowing two unearned runs on five hits in four innings.

“I think I did alright. I just came

in there and tried to throw strikes,” he said. “The weather was pretty brutal, so I was not trying to stay out there on the mound too long.”

After recording five hits in the first three innings, UNM didn’t earn another one until the eighth.

With two on and two out, designated hitter Chris DeVito smacked a two-run double down the right field line for an 11-5 edge. DeVito went 2-for-5 on the day and was the only Lobo to have a multiplehit game.

UNM added one more run in the eighth and three more in the ninth for the final score of 15-5.

The win on Sunday gave UNM a 2-1 series victory over Air Force (16, 1-2 Mountain West). The Lobos (5-2, 2-1 MW) won the first game of the series 10-6 on Friday and lost 8-3 on Saturday.

“It’s definitely a lot bigger when you win a series,” DeVito said. “We want to win every series.”

Starting pitcher Drew Bridges struggled once again. The junior tossed just two innings and gave up three runs on four hits.

Bridges didn’t look comfortable at all on the mound as he walked four batters on the day. He’s walked seven batters this season in just five innings.

“Drew’s had trouble with his command all year, and it’s concerning to us,” Birmingham said.

Air Force’s starting pitcher Ryan Holloway didn’t have much success either. Holloway (0-1) mustered just one inning, allowing six runs on five hits and walked five hitters.

Trent Monaghan was the only Falcon pitcher to find any success against the Lobos. He was on the mound when UNM went hitless from the fourth to the seventh inning. However, the Lobos eventually got to Monaghan and rocked him for six runs on five hits in 6 2/3 innings.

Falcon third baseman Noah Pierce went 3-for-5, including two RBI singles. Outfielders Spencer Draws and Tyler Jones also had multi-hit games for Air Force.

Lobos give Rebels a run for their money Women’s eight-game winning streak ends at Cox Pavilion

By Liam Cary-Eaves Sound interior play from UNLV and UNM’s inability to keep the Rebels off the line shattered New Mexico’s eight-game win streak with a 79-73 loss to UNLV on Saturday.

Head coach Yvonne Sanchez said the Rebels took advantage of sophomore Kianna Keller’s and junior Khadijah Shumpert’s trouble with steering clear of personal fouls. Despite the fouls from the Lobo forwards, UNM was not content with walking away from the 1,311 fans at Cox Pavilion without a fight.

“Their bigs kind of took it to us when we got in foul trouble,” Sanchez said in a statement. “UNLV is playing really good basketball.

We had to fight back on the road and it just didn’t work out for us.

We had an opportunity.”

Danielle Miller, listed as a 5-foot8 guard on the UNLV team roster site, came out against the Lobos playing as a small forward. Miller’s 21 points were the game high for the Mountain West’s leading scorer, who tacked on eight boards and four assists to her performance.

UNM’s freshman guard/forward Jayda Bovero produced a quality night of her own in trying to spark life into the team. Her careerhigh seven boards in 14 minutes gave her squad some needed opportunities with two of the Lobos’ top rebounders on the bench for hacking at the Rebels.

New Mexico had its share of chances after climbing back from an 11-point deficit in the first half and taking a one-point lead with less than one minute left in the half.

However, UNLV snagged a bucket as time expired, giving the Rebels a 3736 advantage heading into halftime.

The beginning of the second

half started much like the first: UNLV came out with a strong run while the Lobos remained idle on both sides of the ball. The Rebels gradually ascended their lead to 61-44, the team’s largest of the day.

With help from UNM’s fullcourt trap defense and mistakes from UNLV, the Lobos mounted a comeback. New Mexico cut the lead down to just four points with 1:21 to play.

However, the Rebels took advantage with made shots at the charity stripe. Of the 42 fouls in Saturday’s contest, UNLV made 25 of its 34 free throws while the UNM hit 15 of its 21.

The Lobos altered their usual course of striving for shots near the basket and took 14 shots from behind the arc. UNM is not wellknown for its ability to hit deep shots, being the second-worst 3-point shooting team in the conference at 26.9 percent. UNLV has not been much better from 3-point land (27.4 percent), but the Rebels finished the night 6-13 from beyond the 3-point line (5-7 in the first half ).

Redshirt senior guard Antiesha Brown led UNM with 19 points and five boards. Junior guard Bryce Owens put up a sound night collecting 14 points, five assists and three steals. Owens was also tied for the game-high four turnovers in addition to her solid offensive performance.

“It just wasn’t our day. It happens. But I still think we can finish at the top (of the league),” Sanchez said in the report.

Men’s basketball

Uphill battle proves too difficult for UNM

By Kyle Tomasi Maybe it was the pressure of the inaugural Pink Pack game. Maybe it was because the Lobos were staring at a potential six-game losing streak for the first time since the 1970-1971 season.

Whatever the reason, New Mexico continued its vapid play in a 76-68 loss to the UNLV Rebels on Saturday.

UNM dropped its sixth game in a row and has lost seven of its last eight overall. In the midst of one of the worst seasons in recent memory, head coach Craig Neal said the team has not shown eagerness to get back to the team’s winning ways.

“It just seems like when it goes downhill, there’s no pushback,” Neal said. “There’s no fight to get back.”

The Lobos, as has been the case with many games of late, fell behind early and faced an uphill battle for the remainder of the game. Though sophomore center Obij Aget hit a layup to take the lead with 17:46 remaining in the first half, UNM failed to push ahead.

UNLV came out of the gates firing, hitting three 3-pointers and connecting on one dunk in their first four possessions of the game. The Rebels kept pouncing on UNM for a good portion of the first half until the Lobos mustered a late run that brought them back into the game.

Aget kick-started a 12-0 run with 5:29 remaining in the first half that knotted the game up at 34 apiece, but the Rebels answered with a quick 5-0 run to end the half. The late spurt gave UNLV a 39-34 edge heading into halftime.

“We’ve talked about and practiced to get off to a good four-minute start, and we’re not. We’re not doing it,” Neal said. “We’re taking bad shots; we’re not in any rhythm.”

Aget led the Lobos with 14 points and grabbed eight boards in the loss. Redshirt sophomore forward Devon Williams and senior guard Hugh Greenwood pitched in for 13 points of their own and added 3 rebounds each.

The Lobos (14-13, 6-9 Mountain West) fought back once again to start the second half after a pair of baskets from Williams. Despite their efforts, the Lobos couldn’t get over the hump to take the lead.

UNM shot 42.3 percent (22-52 FG) from the floor and 42.9 percent (3-7 3FG) from behind the 3-point arc. The Lobos did shine from the free throw line, shooting 72.4 percent (21-29 FT) — an increase from their

season average of 66.3 percent.

Multiple times in the second half the Lobos were within one to two possessions of either tying or taking the lead but couldn’t produce on either side of the ball when they needed it.

UNLV’s four-headed monster was too much for the Lobos to handle for an entire 40-minute game. Freshman guard Patrick McCaw led the Rebels with 22 points, while senior guard Jelan Kendrick and sophomore Christian Wood chipped in 17 points each. UNLV freshman center Goodluck Okonoboh, who had not played in the first meeting against the Lobos, had 12 points of his own.

The four starters’ point totals accounted for all but eight points in the contest.

“I just thought Goodluck got us off to a great start,” UNLV head coach Dave Rice said. “His low-post game has improved so much. He’s worked extremely hard. He’s playing with confidence, and I thought did a good job of finding him and he certainly carried the load for us offensively in the post in the first half.”

The Rebels (15-12, 6-8 Mountain West) shot a scorching 54 percent

(27-50 FG) from the floor and 58.8 percent (10-17 3FG) from the 3-point line. They also connected on 80 percent (12-15 FT) of their free throw attempts.

Pink Pack donations Greenwood’s Pink Pack Foundation raised about $18,000 at Saturday’s game, though the exact amount was not immediately clear.

The money was a combination of the game-worn jerseys that were

auctioned off during the first half and other various donations.

On top of the $18,000, UNLV presented Kjiersten Straub, Greenwood’s girlfriend, a $5,000 donation for the Pink Pack Foundation.

Greenwood’s mother has been battling breast cancer, fueling his motivation to found the Pink Pack.

“It’s fantastic. That’s what we don’t want to take away from the night and the success that we had,” Greenwood

said. “It means a lot, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you to the UNLV fans and their boosters and their organization for their donation. I don’t want the loss to take away the success and the positive that we got out of tonight.”
