While dozens of on-campus skateboarders roll by pedestrians on their way to class every day without incident, occasional accidents do occur.
Frank Martin, a paraplegic stu-dent, said he was hit and injured by a skateboarder, which prompt-ed him to write to administrators at UNM.

Local author and historian Orlando Romero, who spoke at UNM last week, told students they would do well to take a lesson from activists of the 60s.
New Mexico Public Interest Research Group (NMPIRG), a student-run and -funded activist group, invited Romero to its event to speak to students about the importance of social activism.
Romero said student activism was at its peak in the 60s, but today’s students appear “disconnected.”
“In the 60s, it was easy,” he said. “Activists would get together with guitars singing Bob Dylan songs and go out in the streets to protest.”
He said today’s students have easier access to global news and should pay attention to global events.
“There has to be a sense of con-sciousness somewhere, by some-body,” he said
At the event, Alyssa Johnson, NMPIRG chapter chair, spoke about petitions and campaigns. She said NMPIRG started a campaign at the event to reduce college textbook prices to $30 or less per book in an effort to make education more affordable.
“What it boils down to is tak-ing charge of our community and making our voices heard so we can change the world, because, quite simply, that is our goal.” Johnson said.
NMPIRG members Margo Tucker and Kelly Williamson said the group will work this semester to give away 300 compact fluorescent light bulbs, weatherize Greek houses, and draft a petition to install high-efficiency showerheads in dorms to conserve energy.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Police say they’ve made prostitution-re-lated busts at the New Mexico State Fair.
KRQE reports that five pros-titutes and three pimps were ar-rested Saturday night near the fairgrounds.
Two vehicles used to transport the prostitutes were also seized along with firearms in the pimps’ possession.
State Police has 31 officers on patrol at the fair, and undercov-er officers are also patrolling the grounds.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — An airline official says a Southwest Airlines flight headed for Baltimore was di-verted to Nashville after what he described as “suspicious behavior” by a passenger.
The flight originated in Albuquerque on Saturday morning
and landed in Nashville at 1:10 p.m. CDT.
Southwest Airlines spokesman Chris Mainz told the Associated Press that the passenger’s behavior on the plane wasn’t disruptive, but he declined to elaborate.
Nashville International Airport spokeswoman Emily Richard told the AP no arrests were made.
Mainz said police ordered all of the passengers off the plane, sent them through security and exam-ined the plane before passengers were allowed to board again. It took off at 3:55 p.m. CDT.
Mainz did not say whether the passenger in question was allowed back on the flight.
SANTA FE, N.M. — New Mexico legislators have approved a mea-sure in remembrance of those who died in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States.
The memorial honors people who, according to the measure, “showed heroism in responding to the tragedy to help save lives, and to the residents of New York for
their continuing resilience.”The House unanimously adopt-
ed the measure on Saturday as it met to work on redistricting during a special session of the Legislature.
House members also held a mo-ment of silence in recognition of the anniversary. The Senate did not meet on Saturday.
Ten years ago, New Mexico lawmakers were holding a special session on redistricting when the terrorist attacks occurred.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Au-thorities say a black bear found in an Albuquerque neighborhood has been tranquilized and will be re-leased back into the wild.
According to KOB-TV, the bear was tranquilized Friday at a home north of Albuquerque Academy in the city’s northeast heights.
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish says the bear was found in a home’s backyard eating grapes.
They say the bear was to be re-leased Saturday near Mount Taylor, to the west of Albuquerque.

Editor,
I have a couple of things I want to say in reference to � ursday’s front-page article, “Professors Rate RateMyProfessor.”The kinds of students who leave comments on RateMyProfessor.com probably fall into one or more of three categories:
� e � rst is the kind of student that I and all instructors dread: � ey don’t want to work, have a ridiculous sense of entitlement and throw hissy � ts when they don’t get their way. � ese people won’t make it at a four-year university, and they aren’t the kind of people you want to take advice from.
All other ratings probably come from people who were just tickled pink that they
got an A in the class they took, or they liked their instructor because he or she was “hot.”
If I were a student who was sincerely trying to � nd the best professor for a class, I would be very cautious before taking RateMyProfessor seriously. If nothing else, this site promotes laziness.� e other problem I have with these kinds of rating sites is that they mostly serve as a forum for students to exact revenge.
How do I know this? With a brief glance at the image that accompanied the original article in the Daily Lobo, I observed a negatively rated individual who isn’t technically an instructor at UNM.
� is person doesn’t teach classes; therefore, this rating isn’t based on anything with substance. � e people who make these negative comments may have “personal” problems with this individual, but the rating can’t possibly be based on teaching credentials.It is unfortunate that the University doesn’t
have a system in place to give students a better idea about the quality of courses. However, students should ultimately assume responsibility for their own education in college.
RateMyProfessor.com is for students who are too lazy to send an email to a professor about course expectations, or to talk to their friends about classes they liked (or disliked).
Putting in that minimal amount of effort is the best way to get information, not some lame website.

Editors’ Note: While not a professor, Cara Lea Council-Garcia, the overall lowest-rated UNM teacher on RateMyProfessors.com, is a lecturer within the biology department. All teachers listed in the graphic on Thursday’s story are instructors at UNM.
by Will Desmare Daily Lobo Columnist
Last week, I read in the Daily Lobo that college students are more likely to get a DWI. I thought to myself that college students have always been more likely to get a DWI.
The article addressed a lot of reasons why, like this is the first time that college students are away from home, and so on.
I also thought to myself, hey, this has been an issue for a long time, since before I was a freshman in the early 80s. What has the administration done to address this topic? How successful have they been?
There is very limited information that would indicate many students get a DWI. Apparently, there are as many as 20-25 students who get DWIs on campus in a calendar year (The UNM administration does not separate DWI arrests from other types of arrests involving alcohol in its reporting).
I could not find out how many UNM students actually get a DWI (on or off campus) in a calendar year. There is even less information about how to prevent a DWI.
This is a very tough topic to address.It is easy to bash the administration here
at UNM, especially Schmidly’s policies.
However, after reading all of the information that is available on UNM’s website and looking at the organizations that address alcohol use and abuse, I have to admit that they do address the use of alcohol, and they do a good job.
But they could do a better job, and they could also disseminate it to the students in a more effective manner. I asked a lot of my classmates if they received any type of alcohol awareness information or training during freshman orientation, and the answer was consistently negative.
Maybe the administration could improve its DWI prevention program by benchmarking other universities or student groups. As I have said in the past, I am a SAE (Sigma Alpha Epsilon), and fraternities are known to drink alcohol. However, we had a risk management officer and we had programs in place like key control (controlling the car keys of all the people at the party) to help prevent DWIs.
NMSU had a Safe Ride program paid for by the Associated Students of NMSU. It was basically a cab service that operated seven days a week and would take you home, at no charge, if you had too much to drink.
Another topic that has to be addressed is where students drink. Most students drink off campus, and are therefore more likely to get a DWI upon returning to campus. In response to this, I think UNM should re-evaluate its alcohol policy for students of legal age in the dorms and at University-sponsored events, such as football games.
The less driving that is involved, the less likely someone is to get a DWI. After all, the administration fought for control from the city of Albuquerque to allow wealthy donors to drink alcohol at UNM sporting events. While the administration is at it, it might as well promote sensible drinking by students at these sporting events and in the dorms.
One last thing to mention about DWIs is that it is not 100 percent the administration’s responsibility to prevent them. The administration should be at the forefront, but by no means alone. It is also a student’s individual responsibility.
Students should watch over their classmates and friends while drinking and try to prevent them from drinking and driving.

At churches, we prayed. At fire stations, we laid wreaths. At football stadiums, hands and baseball caps over hearts, we lifted our voices in song and familiar chants of “USA!”, our patriotism renewed once more as we allowed ourselves to go back in time to the planes and the tow-ers and the panic and the despair, to the memories that scar us still.
On Sunday, the 10th anniver-sary of the nation’s worst terror at-tack, Americans remembered — in our own ways, all across the land — a day that is simply impossible to forget.
“Would it be nice not to see the planes fly into the buildings all the time? Yes. But we can honor all the people,” said 37-year-old Lea Pfeif-er, who marked the anniversary by participating in a “Freedom Walk” at Virginia’s Arlington National Cemetery along with her husband and 2-year-old son. “I think we car-ry that horror with us every day.”
Far from the main ceremonies in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington — on small-town main streets and in courthouse squares, in big-city parks and on statehouse steps — thousands upon thou-sands gathered to unveil monu-ments, pledge allegiance and cel-ebrate resilience.
The anniversary was remembered with public gatherings and private ceremonies, with gestures large and small. Facebook
profile pictures were changed to American flags. Online tributes allowed people to recall where they were that morning a decade ago when American life forever changed. Said one in a Yahoo news tweet: “Heard about it in geography class. Saw footage in a piano lesson later — not a note played for the entire hour.”
The nationwide memorials were as distinct as America itself: In Las Vegas, firefighters and police officers ascended the 108-story Stratosphere. In Nashville, Tenn., at a honky-tonk that bills itself as “Hillbilly Heaven,” a five-piece country band played gospel as a goateed preacher talked about Sept. 11 between songs.
“We can’t avoid the suffering that life brings,” evangelical preacher Ron Blakley said. “But good things can happen on a bad day.”
On this day, there were motorcycle rides in Alaska and California, a blood drive and dog walk in Texas, a Beach Boys concert in Colorado and many more events aptly named to capture the pervading themes surrounding the anniversary. In Grand Prairie, Texas, the First United Methodist Church saluted service members and first responders with a “Spirit of America Musical.” In Cooper City, Fla., the American Legion planned a “Let Us Not Forget” poker run to raise money for care packages for soldiers overseas.
Julia Moore / Associated PressOver 100 firefighters from more than a dozen different agencies gather on the roof of the Rogue Valley Manor Sunday for the 9-11 Firefighter Memorial Stairclimb in Medford, Ore.
An attack that shook a nation
and to not create a danger or a situ-ation where they’re uncomfortable,” she said.
Disabled students aren’t the only ones complaining about speeding skateboarders and cyclists.
“They need to skate with cau-tion,” student Gabriel Garcia said. “You can’t use your skateboard as a time machine to get somewhere faster.”
Student Ashley Ibarra also said
she has had a few close calls with skaters.
“They act like they own the side-walk sometimes,” she said, “and they just expect you to move out of the way when you don’t even see them.”
Student and skateboarder Yendi Vasquez said she thinks many of the complaints are overblown, but admitted to riding her skateboard down one of the handicap ramps on campus — not to do tricks, but
because it was convenient.Burford said students who feel
threatened can write a formal re-port and submit it to the dean of students.
“If we get a report in writing, if a student is violating any policies, then we can attend to it, or at least call that person in to hopefully have that educational moment to see how their behavior is impacting others on campus,” he said.

When Grossman later connected with Armstrong for a real touchdown, the quarterback made a giddy backward trot toward the sideline, then turned around and kept running for another 20 yards along the Washington Redskins bench.
“Some situations are more emotional than others,” Grossman said. “I just react to the moment. I was happy.”
There was more Good Rex than Bad Rex in Grossman’s first week-one start since 2007. The quarter-back completed 21 of 34 passes for 305 yards Sunday with two touch-downs, no interceptions and one lost fumble — mostly avoiding the
nfl briefs type of negative play that has so often defined his career — as the Redskins opened the season with a 28-14 victory over the New York Giants.
Texans rout Manningless Colts, 34-7
HOUSTON — Hey, Peyton Manning: if there was ever a doubt about what you mean to Indianapolis, there isn’t anymore.
Final score in Sunday’s season opener: Texans 34, Colts 7.
What already looks like a long, long season ahead for the Colts might be the chance, at last, for the Texans to make a leap forward in the AFC South.
Matt Schaub threw for 220 yards and a touchdown; Ben Tate rushed for 116 yards and another score, in relief of injured Arian Foster; and Kerry Collins, Manning’s replacement, was dominated by the opposition.
Ravens breeze past Steelers 35-7
BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Ravens had just beaten their bitter
rivals, the Pittsburgh Steelers, in record-breaking fashion, and some of the players felt inclined to put some perspective on their 35-7 manhandling of the defending AFC champion.
Although their overwhelming victory Sunday provided a bit of payback for January’s playoff loss — don’t think the Ravens didn’t remember that game — coach John Harbaugh and his players have turned their attention to-ward this season.
Baltimore could not have start-ed it any better.
Joe Flacco threw three touch-down passes, Haloti Ngata led an inspired defense that forced a team-record seven turnovers, and the Ravens rolled to their most lopsided victory in a hotly con-tested series that began in 1996.
Tolbert’s 3rd TD lifts Chargers to 24-17 win
SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Chargers on Sunday seemed headed for another one of the slow starts that have defined
The UNM men’s soccer team has only allowed two goals this season — but there could have been nine more if it wasn’t for Victor Rodriguez.
Rodriguez’s efforts have helped the Lobos earn a 4-0-1 record through the first five games of the season.
Jeremy Fishbein, the team’s head coach, said Rodriguez has been do-ing a fantastic job.
“Vic is a student of the game, and all of our goalies are doing well,” Fishbein said.
Teammates said Rodriguez has been a key part to their success.
After Sunday’s game against Cal State Northridge, forward Devon Sandoval said the team is performing well, and while Rodriguez did give up one goal, he was not at fault for it.
“He played pretty well organizing the back, and I don’t really think he could’ve done much with that goal,” Sandoval said, “It’s not just him, it’s our whole defense and our team’s commitment to defense.”
Rodriguez, however, said he takes full responsibility for the goals he has allowed and sets high performance standards for himself.
“One of the things we’ve talked about as a team is we don’t want to give up a lot of goals and we want to keep that shut-out going, but these last two games we’ve gotten a little unlucky and I take responsibility for that,” Rodriguez said.
He said each save makes him feel more confident in his ability as a goalkeeper, and his mentality this season, more than any other aspect of his game, has improved.
“I just feel more confident out there, and I keep telling myself it’s a great team that I’m playing for and it’s a great opportunity for me,” Rodriguez said. “We have one goal — that’s to go to a national championship — and we’ve showed the nation we can compete for that spot.”
He said everyone in his life is a

source of support and has helped him to become the player he is today.
“It has been numerous people, most importantly my family, our goalie coach Savva Biller, just ev-ery single guy out here … they have the confidence in me and I have the confidence in them,” he said. “It’s a big honor when you have that many people to have your back — it’s everyone.”

coach Norv Turner’s tenure.The Chargers not only let the
Vikings’ Percy Harvin return the opening kickoff 103 yards for a touchdown, but kicker Nate Kaeding hurt his left knee on the play, forcing punter Mike Scifres to do his first place-kicking since college.
But the tides turned on the Vikings.
With the Minnesota team sput-tering badly, Philip Rivers got the opening he’d been waiting for all afternoon. He threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to fullback Mike Tolbert with 5:01 to play, lifting the Chargers to a 24-17 win.
49ers’ Harbaugh wins NFL debut 33-17 over Seahawks
SAN FRANCISCO — Here’s the deal, Pete Carroll: Jim Harbaugh is one up on you, at this level.
Ted Ginn Jr. returned a kick-off and a punt for touchdowns in a minute’s span late in the fourth quarter, and the San Francisco 49ers gave Harbaugh a 33-17 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in his much-hyped NFL debut and renewed coaching rivalry with Carroll.
Ginn ran a kickoff back 102 yards, moments after the defend-ing NFC West champion Seahawks had closed within 19-17. It was the second-longest kick return at home and fourth-longest in team history. He then scored on a 55-yard punt return.
Alex Smith exhibited the poise and polish Harbaugh believed the 2005 No. 1 overall pick still had in
him, despite recent history, going 15 for 20 for 124 yards and running for a 1-yard TD. David Akers kicked four field goals in his first game with San Francisco.
Bears pound Falcons in opener, 30-12
CHICAGO — As opening argu-ments go, the Chicago Bears sure made a strong one.
All doubters that they are con-tenders in the NFC should con-sider Sunday’s rout of the Atlanta Falcons.
Brian Urlacher had an intercep-tion and returned a fumble for a touchdown, Jay Cutler threw for 312 yards and two scores, and the Bears pounded Matt Ryan and the Falcons 30-12.

Oakland loss ends playoff hopes
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The math made it certain Sunday: the Oakland Athletics have missed the playoffs for the fifth straight season.
The A’s were eliminated from post-season contention with an 8-1 loss to the AL West-leading Texas Rangers.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin said his focus remains on finishing strong and pointing toward next season, and his players agree.
“We’re here playing to get into the playoffs and win a World Series, so it’s a learning experience,” said Eric Sogard, whose ninth-inning homer accounted for his team’s lone run. “Anything we can get from here on out we can take into next year and hopefully get into the playoffs.”
Player evaluation has been the A’s focus for quite a while, and that will continue over the last 16 games. But the A’s also have games left against playoff contenders, and Melvin knows he must strike a balance.
“You want to evaluate talent going forward, but you’ve got to put forth your best lineup and continue to play your veterans,” he said. “Pretty much everybody we play is a contender — the Rangers, Angels and Tigers.”
The A’s managed only five singles in eight innings against pitcher C.J. Wilson (16-6). The left-hander struck out 11 and walked one, following up on his first career shutout — an 8-0 win at Tampa Bay last Tuesday.
Adrian Beltre homered twice for Texas to reach 301 for his career. Beltre has seven homers in his last
mlb briefseight games against Oakland and 15 RBIs against the A’s this season.
Josh Outman (3-5) got a spot start for Oakland, replacing Rich Harden, whose turn in the rotation was pushed back to give him extra rest. Outman allowed four runs and eight hits over four 2-3 innings.
Outman, whose previous three appearances came in relief, was mak-ing his ninth start of the season, his first since July 2.
The Rangers broke up a scoreless game in the fifth when Craig Gentry led off with his first career triple and Ian Kinsler drove him in with a single.
Dodgers focused on player develop-ment after rare loss
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (AP) — Los Angeles manager Don Mattingly has only one goal for the remainder of the season, and it has nothing to do with wins and losses.
“More than anything, it’s just get ready to play hard every day,” Mattingly said, following the Dodgers’ 8-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. “That’s my goal all year, really, and where we end up is where we end up, as far as our record goes.”
The Dodgers closed a 7-3 road trip and begin a 10-game homestand Monday night against NL West-leading Arizona. The stretch at home includes three against the Diamondbacks, a four-game series with the Pirates, and three more against the Giants.
Los Angeles (72-73) had a chance to complete a three-game series sweep
against San Francisco on Sunday, but pitcher Hiroki Kuroda (11-16) allowed three runs and eight hits over four 2-3 innings in his shortest outing since getting only 12 outs against San Diego on Aug. 2, last year.
Kuroda went 5-1 with a 2.75 ERA in August, but has dropped his first two starts of September. He remains in search of his 12th win, which would be a career high.
“One of my goals is to continue making all my starts until the end of the season,” he said. “Sometimes I feel like I’m opening up a little bit faster than normal, but my arm feels great.”
Mattingly said he’s not worried, either.
“I know he’s thrown a lot of pitches, but he will continue to make pitches,” he said. “He’s not going to cave in; it’s not like he’s missing with everything. I still feel like the ball is coming out good when he lets it go.”
Madison Bumgarner won his fourth straight start and Pablo Sandoval doubled home the go-ahead run in the fifth inning, for San Francisco.
Bumgarner (11-12) struck out eight in five innings, and was charged with one run and three hits. He equaled the longest win-ning streak of his career and im-proved to 8-3 with a 2.73 ERA since June 26.
Tony Gwynn Jr. doubled in the Dodgers’ run, but struck out with the potential tying run at second base in the sixth. Los Angeles lost for only the third time in 13 games.

and their relationships. This is the week to take all you’ve acquired and manifest that in your personal life, for direct experience is more satisfying that hearsay.Virgo—You know exactly what you want, but the problem for you is deciding on a course of action toward that end that takes everyone and all conditions into consideration. Lately, it seems it’s been impossible to accomplish anything with all the restrictions inherent in people-pleasing. What’s the point of going after what you want if that mission is compromised by others? I suggest taking no further action; these road blocks have a way of disappearing without much meddling.Libra—Work will come as a great pleasure this week for you. You are in tune with the highly energized atmosphere that will likely translate into heightened romantic activity after hump day when Venus moves into Libra. To accommodate potential social opportunities later and the week, you will want to put your nose to the grindstone with absolute commitment to the job. As soon as you’ve exhausted those energies, you’ll be ready for a good romp, and you won’t be alone.Scorpio—The veil of darkness you’ve cast over your own sight is wearing thin. You like to force yourself to stare down the ugliness in the world, to confront what most find unsavory, like a test of strength. Now, the real test will be in whether or not you can toss this lens aside in favor of something bordering on optimism. There are endless realities to experience; pick your favorite.Sagittarius—While you’re not one to dwell on emotional troubles, now I think is the time to at least approach them. You are often afraid that if you don’t deliver what you perceive as what people want that you’ll be rejected and alone. This has a way of creating isolation as you can’t achieve a thorough connection this way. To get comfortable, venture into the wilderness and let yourself be free, as anyone in any way you choose.
dashing carelessly from whim to whim.Taurus—Your recent adoption of a liberal work attitude is no longer working to your advantage. Kicking yourself into overdrive is not an apt substitution, however. The key will be striking a balance. Take care to allot time in the early morning or evening to think deeply about the day ahead or behind. Evaluate and act accordingly, but more importantly this is an opportunity to release the tension built up from a moderately productive day.Gemini—You are the center of the carousel this week, anchoring friends and family while they suffer in the throes brought on by the full moon. I anticipate a dramatic increase in communications as you will be called upon for assistance in a number of situations. This week, you have the tools and information necessary to be of use to these people, but maintain a discerning eye to avoid being taken advantage of.Cancer—The full moon lends an intensity to all aspects of your life, but most noticeably in your mental processing. Hidden at the center of a whirlwind of anxious, fleeting thoughts is the primary concern and cause of the disturbance. Examine your thoughts to weed out the clutter that serves no purpose and pare it down to what really matters. It’s likely this tempest is your way of avoiding what needs to be addressed.Leo—Your taste for drama could become insatiable this week. You revel in the action and excitement you access vicariously through gossip, but I get the sense that this is something more than a desire to be in the know. You feel there is something missing in you, something you search for in others
Capricorn—The Full Moon in conjunction with Venus’ transition into will stir up something akin to an artistic temperament in you. You’re not accustomed to indulging in these tendencies; creativity is a hobby and not to meddle with work. I would encourage you to find a way to channel your hunger for accomplishment into a medium that marks where your current temperament and long-term goals come together.Aquarius—This week promises to be one of those times when you can recognize you’re behaving inappropriately but either don’t care to stop yourself and are unable to. Take time each day to reflect on how you’ve affected people, as this cycle will yield some fundamental learning experiences. When you have a better idea of your effect, by the end of the week you can use this to your advantage. Think about how you can be a tool for humanity as an individual.Pisces—It’s been a grueling couple of weeks that will culminate in the Full Moon this week. The imbalance between your personal and work lives will become evident at the beginning of the week, and begs to be addressed. Yes, work is necessary, and when the obligations pile up it is difficult to sacrifice time for you. Think of it this way—you will be more productive if you choose to accommodate your needs in both spheres of life.Aries—It’s time to hold your horses. This week is your breaking point; you’ll realize by mid-week that the high-octane lifestyle you’ve grown accustomed to is finally wearing on you, and everyone around you. To return to equilibrium, you need to let your thoughts pass freely for you to mindfully observe, rather than
life even more convoluted

� e UNM volleyball team is � nally over the tournament hump.
The Lobos won their first tournament of the season at the Comcast/Sheraton Lobo Invitational over the weekend, going 3-0 against UC Irvine, Portland State and Montreal.
In two previous tournaments the Lobos had failed to � nish � rst, but head coach Je� Nelson said ev-erything came together this time around.
“I thought today, for the � rst time, we were able to keep our composure through three games,” Nelson told GoLobos.com. “It was really important because we hadn’t been doing that very well.”
Nelson said his team’s best performance of the season came against Portland State.
In that match, the Lobos over-powered their opponents and forced the Vikings to commit 30 er-rors, compared to the Lobos’ eight.
In game two, the Vikings took a 4-0 lead. From there, the Lobos went on a 19-2 run, including 15
consecutive points, to win the game and eventually sweep Port-land State 25-8, 25-14 and 25-16.
� e domination of play from Lobos early on allowed freshmen Elsa Krieg and Jayla Trombley, who hadn’t had much playing time, take the court late in the match.
“It was really fun to see them ... come out and be able to show o� their skills,” senior Kelly William-son said.
� e Lobos’ match against UC Irvine was the only one that went on for more than three games.
� e Lobos went back and forth with the Anteaters. In the � fth, de-ciding game, Ashley Rhoades took it upon herself to lead the team to a win.
“I don’t want to lose, and I know my team doesn’t want to lose,” Rhoades said. “I felt like I had to get it done and I just turned it up and the team followed me.”
Rhoades had the game-winning kill to � nish with seven in the � nal game. Mariah Agre went to Rhoades throughout, which was what Nel-son had instructed her to do.
“I told Mariah going into game � ve, ‘You set the person who is hot,’
which was Ashley.” Nelson said. “You set them until they stop her, and they didn’t stop her.”
� e Lobos won the match 25-15, 22-25, 25-15, 20-25 and 15-9.
� e Lobos beat Montreal Saturday in three games, 25-19, 25-22 and 25-16, to win the tournament and improve to 6-2 this season.
In all, Rhoades led the way of-fensively this weekend, compiling 48 kills, followed by Williamson’s 28.
Nelson said Williamson strug-gled in past tournaments, but this weekend she got better in each game she played.
“She’s slowly � nding her way back, and when she does, I think we’ll really be dangerous,” Nelson said.
Allison Buck, Rhoades, Agre, and Chantale Riddle made the All-Tournament team, with Buck named MVP of the tournament.
“It’s nice to win a tournament,” Rhoades told GoLobos.com. “But we have to treat this as a learning experience. We have to get bet-ter and push ourselves to get bet-ter for conference and the NCAA tournament.”
Late rush leads victory over Cal State Northridge
Juan Labreche / Daily LoboLobo forward James Rogers battles for the ball, Sunday at University Stadium against Cal State Northridge. UNM won the game 3-1 thanks to three goals in the � nal six minutes of the game.
It took the Lobos men’s soccer team just over a minute and a half to do what they had failed to ac-complish for the entire game prior.
After beating Columbia 5-1 on Friday, the Lobos were trailing 1-0 to Cal State Northridge on Sunday with six minutes left before they scored three goals in the span of one minute and 37 seconds.
In the 84th minute, defender Kyle Venter scored o� a corner kick, and less than a minute later the Lobos took the lead when forward Devon Sandoval � nished from in-side the box. In the 86th minute, forward Blake Smith rounded o� the scoring on a quick counter-attack.
“You could feel the goals were coming,” head coach Jeremy Fishbein said. “Our guys had a lot of belief. We defended well and kept creating opportunities and it was an important win for us.”
� e Lobos hosted and, thanks to the two wins, earned � rst place in the TLC Plumbing, Heating and Cooling Invitational this weekend. Sandoval and Venter were named the tournament o� ensive and de-fensive MVPs, respectively.
� e Lobos dominated much of the game against the Matadors and almost took the lead in the fourth minute, when Sandoval broke through the defense but shot right at the goalie.
� e story was the same in the 17th minute, when forward James Rogers failed to score when he was in on goal.
Against the run of play, Northridge took a one-goal lead with its � rst shot of the game. Matador Gustavo Villalobos picked up the ball 35 yards from goal and unleashed a shot that went in past Lobo goalkeeper Victor Rodriguez.
Sandoval said he was impressed with the goal, but after his team outshot the Matadors 14-6, he knew his team would � nd a way to win.
“� ey scored an amazing goal
but we played well, and were con� dent that we were going to win,” he said.
� e second half was much of the same for the Lobos, who continued to dominate the game but failed to � nd the back of the net.
With time winding down, it looked as if the Lobos would get their � rst loss of the season until defender Giovanni Rollie won a corner kick.
� e ball was played in, and after bouncing around in the box, Venter hit the ball into the back of the net for his � rst goal of the season.
Fifty seconds later, Sandoval played a give-and-go, with Rogers on the top of the box, and placed his � nish in the far post to take the lead.
“We just got pumped up after the � rst goal … we were trying to score one more, and I got through in the back and stuck it away at the back post,” Sandoval said.
Within 47 seconds of Sandoval’s goal, the Lobos scored again.
Northridge pushed forward to � nd a tying goal, but Rogers was played in on a quick counterattack and passed a perfect ball to Smith at the top of the box, who � nished high at the near post.
� e win takes the Lobos to 4-0-1 for the season. Fishbein said he was happy with his team’s comeback.
“No one is bigger than the team, and I think we have that belief and that pride in us, and it felt really good to deal with the adversity to-day,” he said. “Regardless of how good you are, soccer is not an easy game, but we stayed the course and it’s an important win for us.”
“You could feel the goals were coming,” Our guys had a lot of
belief.”~Jeremy Fishbein
