Galetti still Lobos’ voice
For the last three years, UNM fans have known — scratch that — been informally introduced to Scott Galetti on the radio. Galetti, UNM’s play-by-play announcer for men’s basketball, football and baseball, recently signed a multi-year deal to remain the voice of the Lobos. JUL 10

Athletics Year in Review
There’s never a dull moment in UNM Athletics, even on the field, which is why this column is about a month overdue. With the unexpected four-game winning streak of the UNM baseball team at the Mountain West Conference tournament at the end of May, I stalled on a “2010-11 in review” of Lobo sports. But the time to look back on Athletics this past year has finally presented itself. UNM Women’s Soccer First, I’d like to give a round of applause to the UNM women’s soccer team. The team advanced to its first NCAA tournament appearance in its history in 2010. They won the MWC regular-season championship for the first time in school history. JUN 20
Flight flips when shorts sag
UNM football player Deshon Marman has yet to play a single down for the Lobo football team, but he’s already made a name for himself.

UNM football player arrested in San Francisco on a charge of 'trespassing'
The UNM football team has found itself deep in another controversy. Sgt. Michael Rodriguez, San Francisco police, said Lobo defensive back Deshon Marman was arrested at the San Francisco International Airport for sagging his pants while boarding a US Airways flight back to Albuquerque. Rodriguez said an employee of the airline noticed Marman’s pants were “below his buttock, but above the knees, and his boxer shorts were showing.” Rodriguez said in a statement to the San Francisco Chronicle the US Airways employee asked Marman to pull up his pants, refused and was asked to leave the plane.

Former UNM stars visit from leagues overseas
Roman Martinez and Daniel Faris are back in their old stomping ground, but not for long.

Tried and tested, now off to NCAA
This season, UNM baseball catcher Mitchell Garver’s walk-up song to the batter’s box was David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance.” By the looks of the season, that was about the only dancing UNM would do. MAY 30
Air Force not unstoppable
Swing, strike, sit was the theme of the weekend for Air Force — except for three innings. The Lobos completed a sweep of Air Force on Sunday with a 16-4 win at Lobo Field, but they couldn’t record three straight shutouts. Starting pitcher Rudy Jaramillo blanked the Falcons 5-0 on Friday, and pitcher Jake McCasland followed suit on Saturday, helping the Lobos to a 10-0 win and their first back-to-back shutouts since 1983. The UNM bullpen dominated AFA, but head coach Ray Birmingham bemoaned his team’s inconsistency. MAY 8
Club racks up members
Racquetball is the fastest-growing sport at UNM. For eight years, the UNM racquetball club team has practiced and played on the top-level courts at Johnson Center.
