Progress, but still winless

Was it the much-needed bye week or the much-anticipated return of its former head coach that galvanized the UNM football team’s fading spirits? Either way, the Lobos, who entered the second portion of their season last week, were not first-half-of-the-season bad Saturday against bidding-for-a-bowl San Diego State.

Lack of attack produces tie

Outplaying and outscoring opponents are two different things for the UNM men’s soccer team. Even though they outshot Cal-State Bakersfield 21-6, the Lobos failed to find the back of the net and ended Sunday’s game in a 0-0 tie in double overtime at the UNM Soccer Complex. “It sucks,” junior Michael Green said.

Small crowd witnesses 7th loss

Empty was the theme of the night at University Stadium. Before a sparse announced crowd of 16,488, the UNM football team came up empty-handed 30-20 against San Diego State on Saturday.

Rally win bodes well for conference

It was a comeback of epic proportions for the UNM volleyball team. Trailing 21-15 in the fourth game, the Lobos capped off a 10-2 run to defeat Utah 3-1 Saturday at Johnson Center. With the win, UNM (13-8 overall, 5-3 Mountain West Conference) moved into a second-place tie with the Utes (10-11, 5-3), trailing league-leading, No.

Reporter, editor perpetuate sexist stereotypes in punk piece

Editor, I am upset on this particular occasion by reporter Alexandra Swanberg’s column, “Hardcore reunion incites riotous fun.” Swanberg writes, “In recent years, there’s been an alarming trend among male vocalists who wail, scream and whine, emotionally bleeding all over their audience.

ASUNM debates rec center

A proposed recreation center could increase student fees, but while ASUNM mulls over the idea, they’ve committed to cutting costs elsewhere. Johnson Gym is not accessible enough for students, said Vice President for Student Affairs Cheo Torres at ASUNM’s Wednesday meeting. “We teach courses there during the day, and in the evenings we run out of space,” Torres said. Funds for this planned center would likely come from student fees, said Tim Gutierrez, associate vice-president of Student Affairs, and would require about $117 student fees increase per semester. “It’s a lot cheaper than joining the fitness center,” Torres said. ASUNM President Lazaro Cardenas said the recreation center should not be funded through student fees. ”Students don’t have that much money,” Cardenas said. “I don’t want that to be a barrier to them obtaining some type of education. It’s tough to even think, in my mind, of raising student fees. I don’t support a rec center at the current time.” Sen. Terence Brown supported the center.
