Winning field goal redeems kicker

Boom. Boom. Boom. Let me hear you say Aho! A name scorned last week is now celebrated. A 27-yard field goal in the waning seconds of the Colorado State game may overshadow any sour memory fans had about kicker James Aho.

Tides finally turn after season-long losing streak

Curse ye, Colorado State. Curse ye, for ruining the UNM football team’s quest for imperfection. The Rams, entering Saturday’s contest riding a seven-game losing streak — outdone only by the Lobos, who had lost 14 consecutive games dating back to last year — looked like they had swapped uniforms with UNM at University Stadium. (Note to Athletics Director Paul Krebs: This slim 29-27 win for the Lobos doesn’t merit a contract extension for Locksley.

Won and ten

Certain things weren’t meant to be set in stone. For example, an 0-12 season for the UNM football team.

Lobos lose momentum in overtime

The UNM men’s soccer team’s season ended in heartbreak on Thursday. An overtime goal in the 98th minute by Portland midfielder Collen Warner sent the Lobos and an enormous crowd home disappointed, and Portland moved on to the next round 2-1. “This hurts,” said head coach Jeremy Fishbein, whose team finished 12-7-1 overall.

Locksley still making empty promises

Week in, week out, the media continues to put a quarter in that old Locks’ jukebox. And why not, when it plays such lyrical prose, such melodic, sweet-sounding music? If the head coaching gig doesn’t work out, Mike Locksley should consider becoming a motivational speaker. To his credit, if there’s one thing Locksley and his players have learned how to do over the course of this season, it’s to linguistically sweeten the tart. So much so, in fact, that should the Lobos go 0-12, Locksley, please mull over giving the eulogy at UNM’s season-ending memorial service. Figuratively, Locksley was planning on winning a game this year.

UNM discusses more secure student IDs

Student Life plans to issue new Lobo IDs with more security features next year. Many of the details haven’t been worked out yet, according to the SUB administration, but the new IDs are slated to be issued in late spring. Walt Miller, associate vice president for Student Life, said students’ Social Security numbers are programmed in the barcodes of Lobo IDs, but the new Lobo IDs will hold another UNM-issued identification number instead. With the new cards, Student Life also hopes to make LoboCash available at venues off campus, said Chelsea Stallings, ASUNM senator and voting member of the SUB board. These venues will include nearby restaurants such as Frontier and Saggio’s, the parking structure on campus and concession stands at University Stadium and The Pit.
