LAS VEGAS, Nev. — The UNM football team’s season is quickly winding down a road that wasn’t envisioned. In a battle of winless teams on Saturday, UNLV destroyed the Lobos 45-10 at Sam Boyd Stadium. “I thought it was a game that we came out with and started off with good energy,” UNM head coach Mike Locksley said.
Grant Harvey Sr. isn’t your typical coach. In fact, he doesn’t even consider himself the UNM ice hockey team’s head coach. “Well, here is the thing, and let’s get this established,” he said.
Hockey isn’t exactly the biggest sport in the United States, especially not in lake-free New Mexico. But the UNM ice hockey team would gladly check that perception right into the boards and prove to everyone in the Land of Enchantment that Lobo hockey is worth watching. The fast-paced, hard-hitting game means everything to the 23-man Lobo roster, and it has had paramount success despite its obscurity. Or you could go further and say that to this squad, it’s actually a way of life for UNM undergraduate and graduate students. “A club team is one that you have students that want to play a certain sport,” head coach Grant Harvey Sr.
They are who we thought they were. Presented with mounting, incriminating evidence that the UNM football team is unspeakably bad, most level-headed fans held out judgment on the Lobos. That was the kind, gentle thing to do, considering they played nationally ranked teams Oregon and Utah and a formidable Texas Tech squad.
