“Was I the only one who put glue on my hands and peeled it o� for fun when I was a kid?”

J.D. Juerling, vice president of UNM Bigs, asked this question while making an art project with his little brother from Big Brothers Big Sisters.

UNM Bigs is a branch of the nationally-recog-nized mentoring program Big Brothers Big Sisters. UNM Bigs hosted a day for littles and bigs — Albu-querque teenagers and their mentors — to make art projects at the Art Building on Saturday. � e art will be displayed during an April art show at Chro-ma Studios art gallery.

Rosalba Rincon, UNM Bigs treasurer, said mak-ing art is a rare opportunity for many kids.

“We know that art is not very developed in the

community,” she said. “� ere’s not that many plac-es you can go and do art.”

Rincon said bigs are usually footing the bill when taking their littles to do activities in the com-munity, which is why the group wants to provide more free activities.

“We want to provide some activities for matches to do so they don’t have to go to a place like Art! At-tack and pay to do art,” she said. “We want to give them the materials.”

Rincon said several more free art days are in the works. Group members paid for art supplies

GPSA is trying to decide if it should volunteer some money to keep the student UNM newspaper a� oat.

At a meeting Saturday, GPSA dis-cussed whether to give funding to

the Daily Lobo from GPSA’s funds. � e proposed measure would ded-icate almost $16,000 a year from GPSA to the Lobo.

GPSA Council Chair Danny Her-nandez said the resolution — which the council will decide to vote on March 6 — was considered because ASUNM asked GPSA to help fund

the Lobo.“I found out in a Daily Lobo ar-

ticle that ASUNM is contributing to the Lobo,” he said. “I think it would be only fair if we contribute to them, too.”

ASUNM senators Alicia Barry and Travis Maestas introduced a resolution and bill to the ASUNM

Steering and Rules Committee that would both cut some ASUNM fund-ing to Student Publications and en-courage GPSA and other UNM gov-erning bodies to contribute more to the newspaper. � e bill failed, but the resolution comes before the full Senate Wednesday.

However, GPSA representative

Shawn Whiteman said she doesn’t feel the Lobo deserves so much money from GPSA.

“My constituency doesn’t really read the Lobo, so I would have to vote against this,” she said. “I would see giving them some funding, but not as much as ASUNM. I would give

For the � rst time ever, the Student Veterans of UNM will sponsor schol-arships for two stu-dent veterans start-ing in the summer semester.

Zack Mutchler, president of Student Veterans of UNM, said the scholarships are important to supplement the � -nancial assistance the government gives to veterans.

“Even with the amount of � nan-cial assistance we get from the gov-ernment, with the Montgomery and GI bills, there’s still always a need, with the current economy, for a little bit of extra money to help out (and) pay the bills or buy books, or some-thing of that nature,” he said.

Eric Ross, a member of the stu-dent veteran organization, said the two scholarships have di� erent criteria.

Q A&UESTI

ON

PAUL L. BIDERMANDIRECTOR OF THE INSTITUTE

OF PUBLIC LAW AT UNMNSWER

With 40 years of experience, Paul Bi-derman has all the right stu� when it comes to his position as director of the Institute of Public Law at UNM. Bider-man served as New Mexico’s Secretary of Energy and Minerals under former Gov. Toney Anaya and is a research fac-ulty member. Biderman is now research-ing economic security and collaborative governance, pertinent to these current economic times.

Daily Lobo: Can you explain a little bit about the research project you are working on now, and why this project was of interest to you?

Paul Biderman: I became interested in enhancing the quality of public delib-eration of public policy issues, so that people aren’t just yelling at each other and actually listening, trying to accom-modate other people’s interests and

perspectives. I found that the Kettering Institute (for TMJ) out of Dayton, Ohio, has been promoting that issue very heav-ily for many years ... UNM IPL has been asked to coordinate a 10-state western region e� ort to conduct public dialogue on economic security. � ese forums will be structured so that you get people talk-ing to each other, understanding oth-er perspectives and, if possible, � nding other solutions that accommodate all the interests that people have. We are then the ones responsible for compiling the information into either a mock tri-al or a hearing of some kind that would dramatize what the issues are and try to encapsulate the di� erent perspectives into presentations.

DL: Is the Kettering Institute provid-ing any funding for this research?

PB: � ey are actually giving us a small amount of money for training, and

we are actually going to o� er training to anyone that is interested in training on moderating and recording of national issue forums. � ere will be a pre-regis-tration process to take part in this train-ing. � e training is on March 8, located in the SUB, beginning at 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.

DL: What are you hoping to accom-plish in research that can’t really provide any black and white answers?

PB: � e acceptance and funding of these forums by institutes like Kettering acknowledge the value in dialogue ad-dressing public policy. � e dialogue has been important ... We hope in the future to present the results of these forums to local legislators and get them more in-volved in the dialogue process.

through bake sales and working as movie extras, and Chroma donated space for the art projects.

The group purchased paint brushes, paint, paper and other art supplies.

Juerling attended the art work-shop with his little and built a mini skate park from Popsicle sticks and paper. He said he introduced his little to skateboarding.

“Basically that’s what we do – we go skateboarding,” he said. “Being a big gives me a chance to do some-thing that I wish somebody would have done for me.”

Lisa Sanchez, UNM Bigs presi-dent, said UNM Bigs tried to host the art show for the first time last year, but it didn’t have enough participants.

“Honestly the first one didn’t re-ally come off the ground because we didn’t have anything leading up to it where the matches could make art,”

Sanchez said. She said this spring’s art show will

be much better because of the multi-ple opportunities for bigs and littles to create art.

Making art at the UNM campus is also beneficial for littles, she said.

“We like to bring them to campus, show them off and teach them how to get around UNM so it’s not such a scary thing,” she said. “A lot of these kids, their parents haven’t gone to college.”

She said any students who are thinking about being a big brother or sister should attend a UNM Bigs meeting and find out more about the organization. She said college stu-dents can be unique mentors.

“Our philosophy at UNM Bigs is that if you have a positive role model, who is also a college student, it’ll in-crease the likelihood that you’ll go to college,” she said.

“We have a merit-based schol-arship, and a general scholarship, which is really a need-based scholar-ship,” he said.

Ross said he doesn’t yet know ex-actly how much money will be avail-able in the scholarship fund, but they already have several thousand dol-lars in the fund.

“I don’t want to give an actual dollar figure, because the fund has money in there now, but as far as how much we can actually give out, it depends on how much funds are in there,” he said. “Since the scholar-ship has just started, we’re able to af-ford to give out scholarships. We just haven’t figured it out.”

Recipients of the scholarships have not yet been chosen. Applica-tions are available at Svunm.edu, and the deadline is March 15.

Ross said the scholarships can help students whose GI Bill benefits

run out before they can graduate.“Those GI Bill benefits, they don’t

last forever,” he said. “They end, typi-cally, after 36 months of usage. So once the veteran has exhausted those 36 months of GI Bill benefits, they’re left to fend for themselves, basically.”

Ross said the scholarships are awarded on a per-semester basis.

“That’s kind of one of the unique things about our scholarship, is that we’re going to award it every semes-ter,” he said.

This scholarship is the first schol-arship created by a student orga-nization at UNM in more than 50 years, Ross said. He said all money collected for the scholarship comes from fundraising done by the Stu-dent Veterans.

“Economically, we can’t give scholarships if we have no mon-ey for it,” he said. “We had to fund-raise. Our organization is very

strong in community service and fundraising.”

The Student Veterans will not keep the collected money them-selves, Ross said. Instead it is being managed by the UNM Foundation.

“It’s not like this scholarship is managed by us in some separate fund,” he said.

Ross said they’ve had “plenty of inquiries” about the scholarship, but no one has turned in an appli-cation yet.

Mutchler said the goal of the scholarships is to provide benefits to veterans that otherwise may not be available.

“That’s kind of why we support these scholarships, is to make sure we can help them in the broadest ways possible — as opposed to tra-ditional scholarships — which have fairly stringent rules to them,” he said.

In � ursday’s “Schmidly’s advisory team shuns Sta� Council, GPSA,” Pat Lohmann details the unveiling of a list of students, fac-ulty and administrators who will make up UNM President David Schmidly’s President’s Strategic Advisory Team. � e advisory team will be helping Schmidly cut costs and eval-uate University processes through means separate from the traditional channels, like student and faculty governing bodies. Daily Lobo readers had a lively discussion online about the topic.

by ‘Lobo Joe’Posted Friday“� e best technique for conserving as-

sets and enhancing e� ciency is to consid-er replacing President Schmidly. Where did they discover this fool, the Ringling Brothers Clown College?”

by ‘UNM Alumni’ Posted Friday“It comes as no surprise that Schmidly

would shun Sta� Council or GPSA consider-ing that GPSA is speaking out against all the corruption in the UNM administration. � at idiot is not smart enough to keep our Univer-sity from getting screwed.

I say we need to get rid of Schmidly, David Harris, Paul Krebs, Helen Gonzales, Shannon Garbiso and that out-of-control loser Mike Locksley — lying, covering up and destroy-ing evidence. It is extremely di� cult to trust a corrupt administration. If the Regents do not agree they should go as well.”

by ‘UNM Administrators are INCOMPETENT’

Posted Friday“David Schmidly, Paul Krebs and Helen

Gonzales are all incompetent. Mike Lock-sley’s violent out-of-control behavior � ts right in with this irresponsible group of nonleaders.”

by ‘Schmidly, Krebs and Locksley are paid a combined $1.75 million’

Posted Friday“Schmidly, Krebs and Locksley are paid

a combined $1.75 million in public money. Replace all three. � ey are all insu� cient leaders.”

by ‘Student’ Posted Friday“Here’s a suggestion: Get some honest

leaders that are not idiots and crooks to run our University.”

by ‘Schmidly Is Corrupt’ Posted Friday“He doesn’t want anyone on the ‘Presi-

dent’s Strategic Advisory Team’ that he can-not manipulate. If you don’t agree with his rules, you are not on his team.”

Join the discussion at DailyLobo.com.

Editor,Chris Quintana’s o� -topic, satirical com-

mentary on PETA in his Daily Lobo column, “Getting rid of Facebook complainers,” is in-accurate. He detailed upon the organization as a “Vegan Outreach” saying that they hand-ed out pamphlets comprised of deliberately appalling depictions of abused farm animals.

Having been a vegetarian for a couple of years, I can con� dently proclaim that we are not all blood-splatterers with a penchant for asserting our cause through shock value. � ere were several factors that played into my decision to become a vegetarian, and the subject of animal rights was not my primary motivation.

I became a vegetarian for purely self-ish reasons: I wanted to look and feel better. A balanced vegetarian diet of whole grains, plant-based proteins and fresh fruits and veg-etables has accomplished this.

I’d like to dispel the myth that all

vegetarians are waifs. My meat-free diet has built muscle and shed body fat, and my per-formance in physical activities has improved immeasurably. Vegetarianism has also en-hanced my mental and emotional health.

People who are interested in improving their physique or overall health might con-sider a carefully planned vegetarian or vegan diet. It tends to be lower in unhealthy saturat-ed fats, which are primarily found in animal products.

Additionally, a vegetarian diet mustn’t be bland and unsatisfying like some seem to be-lieve. In the past two years, I’ve experimented with more exotic spices, ingredients and � a-vors than I ever did in my 20 years as a meat eater.

I see nothing wrong with the basic concept of killing an animal and eating it. I do, how-ever, have a problem with the questionable procedures of factory farming and their nega-tive repercussions on human health and the environment. I maintain this attitude toward industrial agriculture as a whole. It’s apparent that genetically modi� ed food treated with pesticides and antibiotics is, in the very least, unnatural. � e verdict is still out on how safe

it is. It’s crucial for consumers to realize most of the food suppliers in the United States are corporations that are set on making a pro� t. Consequentially, animals are treated as ob-jects of monetary value. � e necessity of an-tibiotic use in livestock is a byproduct of the � lthy conditions of factory farms. � is is not only an issue of animal rights; it’s a matter of consumer safety.

If you are in any way concerned about your own health, physical appearance, the environ-ment or the safety of your food, please consid-er vegetarianism, or at least look into eating free-range meat and local, organic produce.

� ere are more ethical, nutritionally dense options than the fast food in the SUB. An-napurna Cafe and La Montañita Co-op are both within walking distance from campus and serve a� ordable, delicious food that you can feel good about eating.

I’d also like to urge vegetarians on campus to use logical reasoning instead of shock e� ect when discussing their lifestyle with others.

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS:THIS WEEK’S POLL:The top � ve health insurers have obtained a 56 percent gain in pro� ts in the past year. This news comes as somewhat of a contra-diction, being that 2.7 million Americans have lost their coverage during the recession. Health Care for America Now, the organiza-tion who conducted the study, said, “Insurers will perversely — try to blame the economy for their record-breaking fortunes.” Do you feel this news changes the debate of health care?

Out of 54 responses

CNN recently reported that Pennsylvania parents are suing their son’s high school — alleging the school hacked into their son’s school district-issued laptop’s webcam and watched the student while he was at home and unaware he was being observed. It is unclear whether the boy was doing anything in his room that was illegal or whether the school issued any punishment. All 2,300 stu-dents at the district’s two high schools were o� ered laptops to “en-hance opportunities for ongoing collaboration and ensure that all students have 24/7 access to school-based resources,” according to a message on the superintendent’s Web site. Is this an unlawful invasion of privacy or is spying on a student justi� able?

Yes, it is obvious health care companies are purposely making health care coverage an extremely expensive and rare commod-ity on purpose.

No matter if he was selling drugs or killing babies, the fact that a school was spying on a student in their home is illegal.

Yes, any industry that is making extreme pro� ts in the middle of a recession should be examined.

It is property of the school. They can use it how they please.

No, free market dictates that if the insurance companies are do-ing something that doesn’t bene� t the population, people will � x it with buying choice power.

I can see how you might think it was unlawful, but what is the di� erence between that and a lab monitor in the school library?

No, this is Democratic Party propaganda.

But what if he was killing babies or selling drugs? Wouldn’t you want to catch him? The children! Think of the children!

“Since its founding on the sand hills above downtown Albuquerque in 1889, the University of New Mexico has graduated countless thousands of students who have been the mainstays of New Mexico's economic, political, and cultural life. The heart and soul of Albuquerque, and beloved by its alumni across the country and around the world, UNM is much more than an alma mater. It has querencia, a place in our hearts, like a homeland.” – V. B. Price

them maybe 50 cents per student.”At a Student Publications Board

meeting on Friday, Barry — who is the ASUNM representative on the board — justi� ed introducing the bill and resolution by saying mon-ey taken from Student Publica-tions would be given to new student organizations.

“It’s heartbreaking when we can’t give them money,” she said.

Barry said the bill wasn’t intend-ed only to cut the funding but was supposed to coincide with other governing groups chipping in. Sta� Council and Faculty Senate were also listed in the resolution, but the Student Publications Board repre-sentatives pointed out that the two organizations don’t collect fees from their members.

ASUNM contributes $57,212 yearly to the Daily Lobo, according to information distributed by GPSA. � is works out to roughly $2.85 per undergraduate student, and the proposed measure would give the same amount to the Lobo from ev-ery graduate student. Since there are less graduate students than un-dergraduates, this would equal a projected $15,803 per year.

GPSA contributes nothing to the Daily Lobo, although it does give $1,850 every year to student publi-cations Conceptions Southwest and Best Student Essays.

� e Lobo relies on ASUNM for about 6 percent of its budget.

However, Leslie Donovan, pres-ident of the Student Publications Board, said at a meeting Friday that if ASUNM stopped its funding, the newspaper’s reserves would only sustain the paper for two or three years.

After the reserves ran out, Dono-van said, the Lobo would stop being published.

GPSA President Lissa Knuds-en said she didn’t know if ASUNM would reduce its funding to the Lobo

if GPSA voted to fund it.“If the total amount for the Dai-

ly Lobo is almost $16,000, the � rst question is would we give that on top of ASUNM’s money, or would they reduce their contribution?” she said.

Knudsen said the Lobo provides a service to graduate students, so they should be expected to help fund it.

“It’s sort of considered a sub-scription, because all of us read it. But we don’t pay for it,” she said. “We’re also readers, but we’re not contributing to that.”

Hernandez said it’s important to fund the Lobo in order to encour-age a free press in New Mexico.

“I strongly believe the only way democracy works is with a strong press, and right now, the Daily Lobo is the second largest paper in (Albuquerque), after the Journal,” he said. “And it’s not just students that read it. Ask a legislator if they read an article in the Lobo, and they’ll say yes.”

Knudsen said the Lobo is in need of additional funding, but the GPSA still needs to � gure out where the money would come from.

“� ey’re running in the red, as are most print newspapers,” she said. “� ere’s di� cult decisions to be made, and it’s up to the coun-cil to make them. � e only way we could do it is if we were to cut stipends and salaries, or if we in-creased student fees.”

Knudsen gave one more reason for funding the Lobo: to show sup-port for ASUNM.

“I also like the gesture of hearing the undergraduates. � ere’s a per-ception that the graduate students don’t want to work with them,” she said.

� e Daily Lobo’s annual budget is $749,500.

second half,” Alford said. “You have to give them credit for that.”

Most of that came on the back of Falcons’ forward Grant Parker, who scored 15 of his 17 points in the sec-ond half, from everywhere on the floor, inside and out.

The streak, however, faded and the Falcons shot just 3-of-9 in the last 10 minutes of the second half.

The game remained close throughout with no team ever lead-ing by more than seven points. The score was tied eight times with seven lead changes.

“We weren’t ready to play from the jump,” Hobson said. “So, that is what happens when you play a team

like that. They had a whole week off last week, and they came in. They don’t have anything to lose.”

Even so, Hobson — who tallied 17 points, eight rebounds and five as-sists — saved the Lobos from a mon-umental letdown.

Off a pass from Dairese Gary that hit him in the knees, Hobson shield-ed the ball away from two Falcon de-fenders, clinching a victory in the de-fining moments of the game.

“That is what you live for as a kid,” Hobson said. “You watch Michael Jordan and big-time players that make big-time shots at the end of games … But on any given night, any one of us can make that same play.”

better training with the coaches and everything.”

That regimen involves three and a half hours of rigorous, daily training.

Zuyderwyk said York general-ly trains for two or three events per day. One day York will focus on tech-nique work for the shot put and then practice jumps; another day he’ll run in preparation for the 60 and 1,000-meter runs in the heptathlon. Other days, he’ll work on the pole vault and jumps, Zuyderwyk said.

“The hours are longer than for most of the other athletes,” he said. “So, these guys probably train three and a half hours a day, or something like that, in order to get their con-ditioning in, their running in, their speed work (and) their technique work for the different events. And then they are, obviously, strength training, as well.”

Before the official training began, senior teammate Jeremy Lee said York was going to be great.

“When I first got here, we had some kind of ‘all athletes’ meeting for all the teams, and that’s when I first met Richard,” Lee said. “I start-ed to set up a practice before we ac-tually started practicing as a team. He came out with me and my room-mate, and we all just did, you know, some informal workouts with each other, and I could tell right then and

there he was definitely going to be something special. I came and told Brian (Wilson), ‘Richard is going to kill this year.’”

Likewise, Wilson said having York around is helping everyone on the team.

“Last year I trained by myself. You know, having some people to train with this year has just been nice,” Wilson said. “Hearing about his stats out of high school and him being such a well-defined athlete out of high school — it was nice knowing he was going to come here, and we could kind of compete against each other in practice and the meets, and kind of, you know, push each oth-er to do better. I know I have made big improvements just being able to work out with him. Trying to beat him has made me a better athlete.”

With the Mountain West Confer-ence Championship starting on Sat-urday, York said he wants to reach an NCAA qualifying mark.

“I just work on trying to get my best mark possible,” he said. “I want to go into it hoping that my training will get me to where I need to be. I don’t want to stress it. I don’t want to tell myself that I have to do this, or I have to do that. I just want to go out, run my race, do my event and if everything going as well as I think it is, it should all work to where I’ll qualify.”

The UNM women’s tennis team was blanked by Kansas State on Sun-day at UNM’s Linda Estes Tennis Center.

The Lobos failed to win a match in the 7-0 loss, but head coach Roy Ca-ñada said the match was closer than the score indicated.

“It was actually a very close match,” he said. “We were right there with them in singles. A few points here and there, and it could have been a different story. I’m happy to see we’re playing with a lot of heart and determination, but we’re having trouble putting matches away, and we’re getting tight when the match is on the line.”

With No. 2 player and co-captain Ashley Bonner sidelined with a back injury, Cañada switched up the dou-bles pairings to compensate for Bon-ner’s absence.

Freshman Kristin Eggleston moved up to No. 1 doubles with junior Anya Villanueva to drop an 8-0 deci-sion, and sophomore Eliane Bourd-ages made her spring season debut at No. 3 doubles and was paired with freshman Laura Richardson.

“It is difficult to play with some-one you’re not used to,” Richardson said, who lost 8-5. “I mean, when you are used to someone’s playing style, you can almost guess what shot they’re going to hit next. But we can’t use that as an excuse. Kansas State was just more aggressive in doubles, and we need to work on getting to the net and taking the first strike.”

After grabbing the doubles point,

the Wildcats picked up two more wins at No. 1 and No. 6 singles to take a quick 3-0 lead.

Needing just one more point to clinch the match, Kansas State had to scrap and claw for it, as the Lobos refused to keel over.

“We fought hard and gave it our all,” Richardson said. “We were in every singles match, and I thought it showed a lot about our team — just being able to come back and not give up.”

Bourdages dropped a marathon match 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 against Kansas State’s Maryna Chumak at No. 5 sin-gles to clinch the match.

Eggleston also lost a 6-4, 6-7, 10-6 heartbreaker in a third-set tiebreak. And Richardson suffered a tough 7-6, 6-4 loss in two and a half hours at No. 2 singles.

But it was freshman Amy Ship-perd, who had the longest match of the day, lasting almost three hours. Shipperd lost 6-7, 6-3, 6-3 to Kansas State’s Petra Chuda at the No. 3 spot.

“I actually thought I played pretty well,” Shipperd said. “I was down 5-2 and 4-1 in the second and third set, and managed to come back a little.”

With the loss, UNM is 1-6 in the season. The Lobos now start an 11-match road trip in which they will face four ranked teams, beginning with No. 24 Boise State next week-end. UNM doesn’t have another home match until April 16.

“We travel pretty well,” Cañada said. “These next few matches will give us some great experience play-ing some quality teams. I’m excited about the competition and for us to see what we’re made of.”

Snagging three winsduring home-opener

by Ryan TomariDaily Lobo

It couldn’t have been a better home-opening weekend for the UNM softball team.

� e Lobos nearly swept Seattle, winning three of four games over the weekend at the UNM Softball Complex.

UNM won Saturday’s games 6-1 and 9-8, before dropping Sunday’s � rst leg of the doubleheader 9-3, but then run-ruled the Redhawks, 9-0 in � ve innings of the second leg.

� e Lobos scored four runs each in the third and fourth innings, in Sun-day’s 9-0 pasting, putting their record at 5-3 overall.

Second baseman Cristin An-derson said Sunday’s shutout was invigorating.

“We really didn’t get it done in the � rst game, but we came back in the second game strong and knocked them out in � ve innings, which was good,” Anderson said. “I think we just had (more) heart and being able to bounce back de� nitely played a role.”

While Sunday’s games were hard-ly in doubt, Saturday was chock full of unscripted theatrics.

� at’s when Anderson rescued the Lobos with a walk-o� hit with two outs and the bases loaded to drive in Jessica Lujan-Dresslar for the game-winning run, giving the Lobos a 9-8

victory over the Redhawks.Down 8-7 in the bottom of the sev-

enth inning, Lujan-Dresslar singled to right � eld to tie the game at eight a piece.

And then Anderson stepped to the plate, after struggling for much of the afternoon.

“In that second game, I just kept hitting right to people,” Anderson said. “When the time came, I just knew I had to get it done. I had to � nd a hole, and I did. I have been in that position a couple of times, but de� nitely it’s al-ways exciting, because your adrena-line is always pumping. I was so excit-ed, so happy, to get the hit.”

UNM freshman out� elder Cassan-dra Kalapsa said all Anderson had to do was make solid contact, because Lobos were in scoring position.

“We were down coming into the seventh, and there is nothing to do but hit, especially when you’re the home team,” Kalapsa said. “You have to hit, and, when you have runners on base, you have to score, and that is what we did. We executed really well.”

And to think, the UNM men’s basketball was on the verge of blow-ing its 10-game win streak, No. 12 na-tional ranking, the Mountain West lead and, potentially, the regular-season championship.

With three minutes left, the Lobos were down three to Air Force (9-16 overall and 1-11 MWC), the worst team in the MWC.

But in what is fast becoming a sig-nature, the Lobos survived, coming out with a 59-56 win inside � e Pit on Saturday o� of Darington Hob-son’s game-winning layup with 16 seconds left in the game.

Including Saturday’s win, the Lobos (25-3, 11-2 MWC) have won three of the last � ve games decided by less than four points and won all eight games this season decided by four or less points.

“For whatever reason, if you look at those last four-minute games, we have won a lot,” said head coach Steve Alford. “And this one was an-other one. � is was one we proba-bly shouldn’t have won, and yet they found a way. And I am very apprecia-tive of their e� orts.”

Yet, in uncharacteristic fashion, the Lobos scored less than 60 points for the � rst time this season.

Before Saturday, the Lobos were 1-3 when scoring 66 or less points. � ey nearly equaled their season lows in � eld goals made (18) and � eld goals attempted (44) on Saturday.

“Sometimes during a long sea-son, (games) are not always going to go as scripted,” Alford said. “And you

got to � nd ways to win, and our guys did that.”

� e Lobos scored only 14 points on � eld goals in the � rst half — partly because of poor shooting (33.3 per-cent in the � rst half) and partly be-cause the Falcons constantly put the Lobos on the line.

By the end of the half, UNM had already attempted 19 free throws (making 14). � e Lobos ended the night shooting 18-of-25 from the line.

In one 10-minute � rst-half stretch, the Lobos didn’t hit a � eld goal but still managed to get eight points from the line.

Still, the game remained close, as Air Force turned the ball over 14 times compared to the Lobos’ six. Al-ford ran full-court press for the latter part of the � rst half.

“We are not really a pressing team. We haven’t been all year,” Alford said. “� is is the � rst time we even tried to do any pressing, just to try to get the tempo going.”

Alford’s defense wasn’t the only thing that slowed down Air Force.

� e Falcons also got themselves in trouble, mismanaging the shot clock on a number of possessions, which led to multiple shot-clock violations.

While the Falcons were deliberate with their shooting, they were also e� cient. � ey � nished shooting 51.2 percent from the � eld, compared to the Lobos’ 40.9 percent.

In a 12-minute stretch to start the second half, the Falcons were shoot-ing Annie Oakley numbers (78.6 per-cent from the � eld), propelling them to one of their � rst leads of the half, 47-46.

A normal collegiate track athlete might compete in up to four events. When Lobo track and � eld athlete Richard York steps onto the curved slopes of an indoor track, he com-petes in seven.

York � nished � rst among col-lege athletes and second overall in the New Mexico Classic on Feb. 6, while setting a school record for the heptathlon with 5,294 points, which happens to be fewer than 100 points away from an NCAA qualify-ing mark.

More of note, York is a freshman from St. Clair, Mo., and the New Mexico Classic was his � rst college competition in multiple events.

Assistant coach Rodney Zuyder-wyk said York has an edge on other competitors.

“Basically, he is an incredibly hard worker,” Zuyderwyk said. “He has a very high tolerance for pain. He pushes himself very hard when it comes to his running workouts, especially. He’s tough mentally and tough physically and has been able to get a lot of good hard running in, so he’s very � t right now. But that’s just his toughness that pushes him through the pain and allows him to get this � t.”

And the tireless work never ends. Now, York’s working on the vault — a skill he’s been harnessing for a few years.

In between launches, York talks to teammates, joking about some-thing or helping them re-tape poles or deciding which pole they’d be best suited to use for vaulting.

And now it’s his turn. He stands on his toes, miming the

arm motions he’ll be going through when the pole connects with the ground, breathes deep and then sets his head forward.

He sprints straight, pole in hand, but nonetheless moving with a � uid ease. In less than two seconds, he’s � ying through the air, his body curv-ing over the mark as the pole falls in the opposite direction.

� is event inspired York to get into track.

“Pole vault is the original reason I got started doing track in the � rst place,” he said. “I wanted to be just a pole-vaulter. It’s just really fun, and

there’s so much that goes into it, and obviously it’s fun to fall down from 15 feet onto a mat. It feels like you’re messing around, but you’re really training.”

While pole vaulting might be his original love, York said the rest of the multi-event world appeals to him.

“It’s a little intimidating until you get the feel for multi-event athletes very well whenever you compete with them,” York said. “You spend so much more time with somebody that’s doing a multi, versus some-one you just see in one race. Every single event, you get to know them a little bit better. I don’t really see it as intimidating. I try to help them get better as well as help myself

get better.” York’s training regimen is what’s

bettering his performance. � is year marks the � rst time that he’s trained speci� cally for multi-event competitions.

“I have never actually done a multi with extensive training for the multi,” he said, staring at the track and watching his teammates vault. “It’s always been in the summer af-ter my high school season, and every week I’d get more rusty on certain events. It’s good now that I actually get to train for it, so that’s probably pretty much what’s leading to how good I am doing right now. It’s a lot

LOBO MEN’S TRACK AND FIELD LOBO MEN’S BASKETBALL

Texas-sized predictioncomes true for NM

LOBO BASEBALL

by Isaac AviluceaDaily Lobo

Perhaps nobody in the state of New Mexico is aware that Ray Bir-mingham is actually a seer.

When the Lobo head coach scheduled Texas, he seemed to be aiming for impossible targets with-out all his bullets — the Lobos lost several seniors from last year’s team, and this year, as it seems ev-ery year, was coined a rebuilding year by pundits, Birmingham said.

Let this serve as a notice.� e UNM baseball team

marched into No. 1 Texas’ hallowed stomping grounds for a three-game series. And the Lobos left with the majority — two wins.

Birmingham could hardly con-tain his elation in a phone inter-view with the Daily Lobo on Sun-day afternoon.

“We’re feeling like a million bucks,” he said. “� e pitchers pitched their butts o� in a hostile environment.”

Before the series began, Bir-mingham snickered at the asser-tion that New Mexico baseball lagged far behind other marquee college baseball destinations, Tex-as being one of them.

Apparently, his words

resonated with the team.After dropping a � ercely fought

game on Friday, 6-2, UNM re-sponded with a pair of victories, 6-5 on Saturday and 3-1 on Sunday.

Lobo pitcher Mike Lachapelle allowed seven hits in six innings of work, earmarking a 3-1 victory for UNM on Sunday.

And the hitters, too, came through in the direst circumstances.

Down two runs in the ninth in-ning on Saturday, Justin Howard evened the score at � ve apiece with a solo home run, before Max Willett’s sacri� ce � y brought in the go-ahead run. UNM pitcher Austin House then seated the Longhorns’ next two batters in the bottom of the ninth to seal the win.

“When’s the last time a Lobo team beat the No. 1 team in the country at their place?” Birming-ham asked.

� e answer: It’s never happened in the history of Lobo baseball.

“And not only once did we beat them, but twice — at their home place,” Birmingham said. “We’re going to celebrate today, but to-night, when we tuck our butts in bed, we’re going to be thinking about Texas Tech and how to beat them.”
