Although the UNM administration has increased security measures at Lobo Village, the Board of Regents questioned whether the e� orts have gone too far.
At a meeting on Tuesday, Board of Regents President Jack Fortner commended the University’s e� orts to improve student safety at Lobo Village, but said the increased security might be excessive. He said that on Saturday at about 10:30 p.m., he and his wife tried to visit their daughter, who is a Lobo Village resident, but were stopped by the security guard checking identi� cation at the gate.
Fortner said he had his ID with him, but that his wife did not and that the guard wouldn’t let them in.
“I said ‘Look, she’s age appropriate,’” he said. “Perhaps we’ve gone a little overboard, but at least in the right direction.”
Vice President for Student A� airs Cheo Torres said the University has increased se-curity measures at Lobo Village to improve student safety and that improvements in-cluded plans for “designating a building or buildings that are alcohol-free.”
He said a survey was sent to Lobo Village residents regarding whether residents would prefer the community to
be alcohol-free. According to the survey, 57 percent of survey takers did not want an alcohol-free building at the community, 15 percent were very interested, 15 percent were somewhat interested and 13 percent had no interest either way.
Torres said that despite the results, the University will continue to explore having at least one alcohol-free building at Lobo Village. He said that although some students are not pleased with the change, it’s an e� ort to keep students safe.
“Yes, students don’t like change, but they’re getting used to the changes and of course we know we’re doing it for the right reasons, and that’s for their safety and well being,” he said.

The 1970s and 1980s saw the awakening of social awareness and political activism
in Mexican-American communities. In San Diego, a group of Chicana women participated in a political theatre group named Teatro de las Chicanas (later known as Teatro Laboral and Teatro Raíces) whose
plays addressed social, gender, and political issues of the working class and the
Chicano Movement.
Co-sponsored by Dean- College of Arts & Sciences, Southwest Hispanic Research Institute, Chicano/Hispano/Mexicano Studies, Feminist Research Institute, Center for the Southwest, Departments of History, English and American Studies.
Join the Women Studies Program and Women’s Resource Center for this amazing
chance to hear 5 members of Teatro Chicana share their experiences as playwrights,
performers, and activsts. They will also read from their anthology and be available for Q & A. A book sale and signing will follow
the presentation.

Carol Bemis, the mother of UNM stu-dent Daniel Bower, reported to UNMPD that her son’s laptop was stolen while he was living at Lobo Village. She reported on Aug. 30 that the laptop was stolen on July 31. According to the police report, she ad-vised the officer that her son had reported the theft the day it happened, but when she checked with APD and UNMPD, she found no record of her son’s report. She provided UNMPD with the serial and model num-bers of the laptop and the officer entered the laptop, valued at more than $900, in the National Crime Information Center data-base. The case is considered closed, pend-ing further leads.
UNM student Michael McDonald reported to UNMPD on Aug. 29 that his parking pass had been stolen off his motorcycle. The parking pass, numbered 2465, was for Lobo Village. According to the police report, there were no suspects or witnesses at the time of the report.
UNM student Bryan Buie parked his car at Student Family Housing on Aug. 29 and returned later that day to find it missing. Buie contacted UNMPD that day, and the officer reported that unknown individuals took the vehicle “intentionally, unlawful-ly and without permission from Mr. Buie.” According to the police report, the car was entered in the National Crime Information Center and an Attempt to Locate was issued to all surrounding agencies. The report did not specify the car’s value. There were no witnessess or offender information at the
time of the report and the case is consid-ered closed, pending further leads.
UNMPD responded to a call from Bratton Hall in the law school on Aug. 29 from UNM student Britt Baca-Miller. Baca-Miller told the officer that an unknown individual stole her backpack from a locker she left unlocked. According to the po-lice report, the bag and contained items is val-ued at $1,200, and was stolen between noon and 5 p.m. the day before Baca-Miller report-ed the incident. There were no witnesses and the MacBook laptop in the backpack will be entered into the National Crime Information Center, according to the report.
On Aug. 29, UNMPD responded to a call from UNM student Nicole Nesiba, who reported that she had left her bicycle locked under a stairwell by her dorm earlier that day and came back to find it missing. Nesiba reported that the front tire and bicycle lock were still there. According to the police report, the bicycle, valued at $500, was not recovered and no one reported unusual activity near the area. Nesiba did not report the serial numbers. The officer told Nesiba UNMPD will be looking for the bicycle and will contact her if it is found.
UNMPD responded to a call on Aug. 30 from Physical Plant Department employee Frank Salcido about criminal damage to his car. Salcido reported that between 4:10 a.m. and 12:50 p.m. that day, an unknown individ-ual tried to break into the car. According to the report, the driver’s side door key hole was
damaged and it appeared as though the indi-vidual tried to get in by punching through the lock. The officer estimated the car’s damage is $150. No further action was taken.
Unknown individuals attempted to break into a car parked on north campus on Aug. 30. UNMPD reported the individuals popped the lock, which was previously broken and unrepaired, and broke the ignition in an attempt to take the car without permission from the vehicle’s owner Deanna Odell. There were no witnesses or offender information at the time of the report and the case is considered to be closed, pending further leads.
Latisha Nieto left her purse in the pe-diatric care unit family room at UNMH on Aug. 30 and returned three hours later to find it missing. According to the report, UNMPD responded that day and reported no known offender or witness information at the time. The case is considered to be closed, pending further leads.
A UNMPD officer working at the UNM Bookstore on Aug. 30 chased after a man who set off the security alarm at the front door and did not stop when the JLS security officer on duty called after him. According to the police report, the UNMPD officer exited the store and was advised the man was heading south. The officer saw the man running south on Cornell Drive, but was unable to apprehend him. The officer re-entered the store and viewed the security
footage, which revealed the man stuffing a textbook down the front of his pants. The book value was listed at $226.50. The case is considered to be closed, pending further leads.
Although UNM student John Grady was able to use an online application to get a GPS location on his missing iPhone, UNMPD was unable to locate it because the program did not deliver real-time information. According to the police report, Grady reported the missing cellphone on Aug. 31, the day after he discovered it missing from a room in Castetter Hall. After several attempts to locate the phone, officers stopped the search and advised Grady to give any additional leads to UNMPD.
UNMPD was dispatched to a Lobo Village apartment on Sept. 1 in response to a security call about a loud party. Upon their arrival at the apartment, UNMPD officers reported the smell of marijuana and a glass pipe on the kitchen counter. According to the police report, UNM student Austin Long told UNMPD the party was for his 22nd birthday, after which the officer reported that there were at least three minors in attendance. According to the report, several individuals admitted to drinking and appeared intoxicated, but nobody was in possession of alcohol at the time. All nonresidents were asked to leave Lobo Village and not return, or they would face trespassing charges. UNM student Matthew Timms and Long were the only individuals remaining and claimed everyone else had left. They did not allow the officer to check the apartment to verify. UNMPD reported Timms and Long were cited for possession of drug paraphernalia.

ALBUQUERQUE — A rare salamander found only in northern New Mexico would be added to the federal endangered species list under a proposal unveiled Tuesday by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The plan highlights questions about how many Jemez Moun-tain salamanders still exist follow-ing back-to-back years of wildfire, drought and other changes to their moist, forested habitat.
Researchers with the Center for Conservation Biology at the University of Washington and The Nature Conservancy spent the last three weeks in the Jemez Mountains using a team of specially trained dogs to sniff out populations of the salamanders in an effort to learn more about what makes them tick.
“Salamanders are ancient creatures, but we don’t know if they’ve been in the Jemez Mountains for 10,000 years or 100,000 years,” said Anne Bradley, forest conservation program manager for The Nature Conservancy.
“We don’t really know what kind of environments the salamander has experienced over its evolutionary history to know how it is adapting to these changes that we’re seeing now,” she said.
Dependent on moisture in the air and soil, the salamanders breathe through their skin and spend much of their lives underground.
One of the chief threats facing the lung-less amphibian is the combina-tion of an overgrown forest and the likelihood of severe wildfire, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
While the salamander has evolved
over centuries with low-intensity fire, the waves of fast-moving, intense fires that have charred tens of millions of acres in the West over the last decade is a problem.
Biologists say that between 1995 and 2010, severe fires have burned more than one-third of known salamander habitat on national forest lands.
In 2011, the Las Conchas Fire burned nearly 18,000 acres of sala-mander habitat.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service points to fire restoration, logging, grazing, roads, trails and recreation as other threats to the salamander.
Aside from the proposed listing, the agency is suggesting setting aside more than 140 square miles in three New Mexico counties as critical habi-tat for the salamander.
The agency will make a final deci-sion on the salamander following a 60-day comment period.
Environmentalists have been pushing for salamander protections for more than two decades.
Whether they’re hiding under de-caying logs or snuggled deep in under-ground crevices, they’re difficult for human surveyors to find. That’s where the dogs — Frehley and Sampson — come in.
The dogs are among 12 that were rescued from animal shelters and trained by handlers at the Center for Conservation Biology. They’re much more efficient at covering more ground and searching for such elusive crea-tures. Their species conservation mis-sions have taken them from the San Juan Islands to Brazil, Cambodia and now northern New Mexico.
“It was awe-inspiring to see how these animals interact with their

cost the University about $3.1 mil-lion for about 4.3 acres of property.
One of the properties is a va-cant commercial site located at 5400 Central Ave. S.E., which will cost about $1.12 million and will be used as a clinic site for the UNMH Alco-hol and Substance Abuse Program, which provides substance abuse and mental health treatment.
The University will also
purchase a 2.5 acre property at 2130 Eubank Blvd. N.E. that will cost a little less than $1.7 million. The building on the property will be converted into a community-based health care clinic.
The third purchase, a single-fam-ily home located at 923 Vassar Dr. N.E., will cost $320,000. The house will be converted into the School of Medicine Development Office.
world,” Bradley said of the expert sniff-ers. “We aren’t oriented around our noses so you don’t realize what kind of sensitivity that they have until you get a chance to experience it.”

Editor’s note: This letter is in response to “An Eastern Spin,” an article about local Japanese porcelain potter Jim Srubek and the free instruc-tional sessions he offers, published in the Aug. 30 issue of the Daily Lobo.
Editor,
The extensive article by Antonio Sanchez in the Aug. 30 Daily Lobo about Jim Srubek’s Arita porcelain studio did not mention that there is a thriving Arita porcelain program at UNM, run by assistant professor Kathryne Cyman in the Art Building as part of the ceramics area of the Department of Art and Art History. There are examples of Arita porcelain items in cabinets
outside the Arita lab on the first floor and outside the art and art history office on the second floor.
Cyman has studied the method at UNM and in Arita, Japan. She has taught the 400-year-old Arita process in the Art Education Program since professor Srubek retired in 2001 and in art and art history since fall 2010. See more on her page of the web site art.unm.edu.

to fix the broken locks on bathroom stall doors. Some of them have been broken since last year and who knows how long before that? It’s the little things that mat-ter the most.
Also, how about installing more filtered water dispensers (like the ones in the SUB) around campus, such as in Mitchell Hall, Dane Smith Hall and the Science and Math Learning Center — spots where the little markets are that have a lot of traffic? Since water is such a neces-sity here in New Mexico and so many people, myself included, bring their own water bottles to class, this would be a real convenience. Like many others, I’m sure, I don’t always have time between classes to walk all the way over to the SUB to get great tasting water. Like I said, it’s the little things. Thank you.

Editor,
The Republican and Democratic National Conventions: Why do we pay for them, again?
The national conventions of the major par-ties during the last few weeks did nothing but further prove the degradation of our nation’s republican and democratic ideals. Conven-tions used to be a gathering of elected dele-gates representing their localities from across the country to debate and discuss the future of their party and the methods in which to bring about prosperity for the country.
Instead, what we got was a gathering of sheep to celebrate the immaculate decisions already made by the party bosses. There was no debate or discussion. The votes on the floors were a complete farce, the entire ordeal script-ed and staged from the get-go.
Conventions are no longer conventions. They’re coronations celebrating the greatness of the anointed ones by the elite party leader-ship. Extravagant parties paid for by the taxpay-er. Nothing of substance is discussed. Dissent is utterly crushed. The RNC passed rules against the will of the delegates. The DNC changed the platform against the will of their delegates. When votes are brought to the floor, it is merely going through the motions. The teleprompters demonstrate how the script has been written
and the result of the votes has been decided no matter the result of the actual delegate votes.
Our country has serious problems. We’re broke, we’re spread thin militarily across the planet, our economy is in the biggest slump since the Depression with a dim future, the middle class is shrinking, civil liberties are be-ing violated, and what did we hear from these conventions to address these serious concerns? Silence.
Instead, we had presidential candidate Mitt Romney talking about how many women he had in his administration as governor and how his plan will magically create “12 million jobs” out of thin air (as if government creates jobs). There was no mention of specific cuts, our service men and women or reforming entitlements.
The Democrats continued to blame the cur-rent predicament on results of Bush policies they inherited and then bragged about creating millions of jobs as if the American people can be that blind to the reality around them.
What has Obama accomplished? He contin-ued to use the Bush playbook — that he blames for the country’s problems — by increasing the already record-high spending of the Bush years, and expanded our role as the policeman of the world despite the anti-war protests of Demo-crats during Bush years. He also expanded and extended the Patriot Act, and passed NDAA de-spite the Democrats’ protest on Bush’s violation of civil liberties. They discuss how corporations aren’t people, unless the corporation is GM or
Goldman Sachs, in which case they hand them billions of taxpayer dollars.
Liberalism is supposed to mean freedom from the tyranny of government and not hav-ing our lives run by the heavy hand of govern-ment that “we all belong to.” The worst part of all this was the fact that these conventions force the taxpayers to pay nearly $20 million for each of them. And that’s a conservative estimate. The citizens pay for the booze, confetti and balloons for this rich political class to celebrate and lie to our faces.
These conventions are nothing but smoke and mirrors; the political elite who auction off the wealth of the people to their various cronies while they blow smoke at the American people. At the very least, save us some money and just combine the conventions into just one big one. It’s not like the two parties are all that different. They can still have their big crony bash. Put the Patriot Act/NDAA, wars, money printing, bail-outs, crony regulations and perpetual debt un-der one roof, finally.
We could also stop the parties from chang-ing the meaning of the words “liberalism” and “conservatism.” Call it what it is: corporatism, socialism or crony capitalism. Because nei-ther, at this moment, is doing a very good job of representing the traditions of our country and espousing a true message of liberty and indi-vidual freedom. Tell them to blow smoke some-where else.

The U.S. nuclear bombs designed for decades at Sandia and Los Alamos laboratories terrorize many whole nations. U.S. nuclear bombs threat-en to incinerate many times more moms, dads and children than Hitler and the Nazis killed in gas ovens, concentration camps and World War II. U.S. nuclear bombs are prepared to slaugh-ter far more people than all of the wars in hu-man history combined. U.S. nuclear bombs are prepared to commit mass murders worldwide, thousands of times larger than the atrocities of Sept. 11, 2001. U.S. nuclear bombs are aimed to murder far more human beings than murder all the street gangs, drug dealers, drunk drivers, rapists, deranged spouses, serial killers, the Ku Klux Klan and the Mafia combined.
Even if the U.S. never again drops nuclear bombs on cities, those bombs are murdering millions of poor people now, because the bil-lions of dollars, vast resources and brain power invested in bombs could provide clean water, decent shelter and nutritious food for millions of poor people dying worldwide.
Even if the U.S. never again drops nuclear bombs on cities, the radioactive and chemical contamination from the making and testing of these weapons can sicken and kill millions of people for thousands of years. Many children will be born deformed or retarded. Many peo-ple will be ravaged by cancers or ruined im-mune systems.
Even if the U.S. never again drops nuclear bombs on cities, these bombs are a constant threat against many nations worldwide to keep them under the bloody terrorist control of the U.S. empire and multinational corporations, robbing them of their labor and natural re-sources and keeping the poor in perpetual eco-nomic slavery.
How can anyone who abhors murder on our own streets and in our homes pay one dime of federal income tax for this international nuclear terrorism by the U.S. empire?
Sadly, most politicians, preachers, priests, rabbis and community leaders do not have the conscience and the balls to damn nuclear bombs.
I have paid no federal income tax for 33 years. I refuse to pay for war and nuclear bombs. I have no right to pay tax that will do to other people what I do no want done to me.
Albert Einstein said, “More and more I come to value charity and love of (others) above every-thing else … all our lauded technological prog-ress — our very civilization — is like an ax in the hand of a pathological criminal.”
Never work for Sandia and Los Alamos laboratories, Lockheed Martin or other war industries.

Fall 2012 Field Research Grants For research in Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain, and Portugal
The Latin American and Iberian Institute (LAII), with funding from the Tinker Foundation, announces the availability of Field Research Grants (FRGs) for graduate student research. FRGs support research projects in Latin America and Iberia that require limited time in the field. Awards typically cover airfare and some in-country travel and field expenses. For full application materials and more information please contact: Ashley Valenzuela-Ruesgen at [email protected]
An INFORMATIONAL HELP SESSION will be held in coordination
with SOLAS on Wednesday, Sept. 12 at 12pm in the LAII Reading Room located at 801 Yale Blvd NE.
Application Deadline: Monday, October 15, 2012 by 5pm.
athlete Jarrin Solomon qualified for the 2012 Olympic Summer Games in London, he wasn’t just representing Trinidad and Tobago. He was following in his father’s footsteps.
Michael Solomon, himself a UNM alum and former track star, competed for Trinidad in the 1976 Olympics in Montreal and the 1980 Olympics in Moscow. He is still revered in his home nation; many fans call him “Skinny Man.”
Thirty-two years after Michael’s last Olympic appearance, Jarrin added to his family’s legacy. The younger Solomon earned a bronze medal for Trinidad competing in the 4x400-meter relay in London.
“When you first get done, it takes a couple of weeks for it to sink in,” said Jarrin, an Albuquerque native who holds dual citizenship with the United States and Trinidad.
Jarrin is the sixth UNM track and field athlete to qualify for the Olympics and the second to earn a medal. In addition to Jarrin and his father, Buster Charles in 1932, Dick Howard in 1960, Gary Kinder in 1988 and Simon Arkell in 1992 participated in the Olympics, according to GoLobos.com. Charles, Howard and Kinder competed for the United States, Arkell for Australia.
Howard is the only other medalist from UNM, taking bronze in the 400-meter hurdles.
A complete list of former UNM athletes to qualify for the Olympics could not be obtained.
Jarrin stopped by campus on Friday and received congratulations from UNM President Robert Frank.
“It’s great to have an Olympian as one of our alumni,” Frank said. “It’s a great credit to the University that someone can be one of the world’s best athletes. What else is there to say? That speaks for itself.”
During the Aug. 10 final, Trinidad finished third with a national-best time of 2 minutes, 59.4 seconds. Jarrin’s split time, or the time it took him to complete his leg of the race, was 43.9 seconds. Jarrin said he ran the fourth fastest split time of the
The shifting landscape of college sports finally hit UNM last week.
And no, it wasn’t football. Men’s soccer will be packing its bags and moving from the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation to Conference USA starting next season.
Head coach Jeremy Fishbein said the conference change is one of the
most important proceedings in UNM men’s soccer history.
“That, to me, is one of the most significant developments since I’ve been here,” he said. “We’ve been in the Mountain Pacific since I’ve been here for 11 years, which has been a very good conference for us. This op-portunity to move to Conference USA is incredible; it’s one of the best con-ferences in the country. Last year they may well have had the highest RPI
in the country. It’s going to bring big games to Albuquerque, big confer-ence games with big schools.”
UNM Athletics Director Paul Krebs credits Senior Associate Athletics Di-rector Kurt Esser for instigating the move to Conference USA.
“Kurt Esser deserves a lot of cred-it,” Krebs said. “I think as he, coach Fishbein and I talked about the future

games and only a handful of runners have times in the 43s.
The team from the Bahamas won the gold medal in 2:56.72, with the United States taking silver in 2:57.05.
The Trinidad team qualified for the finals with the third-fastest preliminary time, 3:00.38. Jarrin recorded a split time of 44.61 in that race on Aug. 9.
For the 4x400, the top 16 relay teams were split into two preliminary heats. The top eight times qualified for the finals. Ade Alleyne-Forte, Lalonde Gordon and Deon Lendore joined Jarrin on the Trinidad 4x400 team.
“When the gun went off, we were rolling,” Jarrin said. “Really, in my mind, I got going … and we go fast and it was nothing new to me to run with those guys, but it was a completely different atmosphere.”
He said he noticed the crowd noise at the Olympic stadium. He said he heard stories of athletes listening to the crowd noise from the stadium as they walked to the Olympic Village, which houses the games’ participants.
The crowd noise seemed to get louder in the final 100 meters, Jarrin said. He wasn’t sure if the crowd was closer to the track on that side of the venue or if a Great Britain runner had gained ground on him.
“I was just pumping home,” he said.
“I headed off (after the exchange) and turned around. I was like, ‘They are just loud’ — they were that way in the prelim and the final. Whenever the leg was coming to the end they would just get louder and louder.”
Since his return home after the games, Jarrin said he received much praise for his performance. He said he recently moved into a new house and found a note that read “Congratulations. Welcome to the neighborhood.” His mom, Susie, also collected news clippings.
Jarrin lives and trains in the United States, but he returns to Trinidad from time to time. He has family in Trinidad and has made friends.
He plans to continue his training in preparation for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Not only does he want to return to the Games in the 4x400 relay, he wants to qualify for the 400 meters, an individual race. He said he missed qualifying for the 400 in London by a hundredth of a second.
“I was disheartened, but it hap-pened for a reason,” Jarrin said. “I might have been tired and maybe not as able to run as fast. It is what it is. That’s what I’m going to do for the next four years: run both, try to get the 400 and the 4x400. That’s my goal, to get an individual medal.”

Riddle leads best start in more than 20 yearsvolleyball
the UNM volleyball team is on its game. And Riddle has been on her game a lot
this season. The Lobos are 10-1 through their first three weeks of the season, the team’s best start since 1989. UNM has competed in two home tournaments and the Tiger Invitational at Savannah State University in Georgia.
Riddle, a sophomore outside hitter, has been a huge factor in that ear-ly success. This season, Riddle has amassed 156 kills, averaging 4.22 per set, and 40 blocks.
She leads the MWC in total kills and kills-per-set average; Boise State’s Alyssa Gammel is second in the conference with 140 kills with a 3.89 per-set average.
Riddle’s block total ranks ninth in the conference, a rarity for an outside block-er. Usually only middle blockers can hold such high marks.
“We’re playing really well,” said Riddle, a Roswell native. “We’re getting on teams really early, and we’re being aggressive. We don’t care that we’re young and some teams are bigger than us. We just go after them a lot of the time.”
At last weekend’s Sheraton Airport/Comcast Lobo Invitational, Riddle had 51 kills and 18 digs in three victories against Georgia Southern, Portland and UC San-ta Barbara. Her highest kill total came against Georgia Southern, posting 20. She was named the tournament’s MVP.
Riddle also had a strong performance at the Tiger Invitational, hosted by Sa-vannah State in Georgia Aug. 31-Sept. 1. She had a double-double against UNC Asheville with 14 kills and 10 digs. She also had 20 kills, six digs and four blocks against Maryland-Eastern Shore.
The Lobos finished the Savannah
State event undefeated in four matches, dropping just one set to Eastern Shore.
Riddle averaged 4.45 kills, 2.55 digs and 0.91 blocks per set that week, and the MWC gave her its player of the week award, her first such honor.
“It was great, but definitely my teammates have helped a lot,” Riddle said, referring to her conference honor. “They get onto me when I’m not doing well. They help me get a lot better. They help me at practice every single day.”
Riddle has the capacity to take over a match. When that happens, her attitude is infectious and her teammates ben-efit from her enthusiasm. Junior libero Miquella Lovato said that when Riddle gets fired up, it’s exciting to see Riddle pumping her fists, jumping around and cheering.
“She brings so much energy to the team,” Lovato said. “She’s done well throughout the start of the season. It brings some motivation and momentum to our team, and I think that’s what keeps us going.”
Head coach Jeff Nelson said he’s seen his team’s momentum change when Rid-dle gets going. The coach used Riddle’s performance against Maryland-Eastern Shore as an example.
UNM dropped the first set to Eastern Shore; Nelson said Riddle stepped her game up after the loss and finished the match with 20 kills, spurring the Lobos to a four-set victory.
“There’s no doubt that everybody jumps on her back and takes off with her,” Nelson said.
But Riddle says she feeds off her teammates’ energy as much as they feed off hers.
“Elsa (Krieg, a middle blocker) got a big block against that girl today (Saturday against Portland), and it helps a lot,” Riddle said. “It helps you be just like her.”

of our men’s soccer program and how we can help it evolve, we thought if we could strengthen our conference it would be good for our program. Con-ference USA is historically a stronger conference with RPI and teams from top to bottom. Once the opportunity presented itself, we jumped at it.”
Krebs said the move has no rela-tion to prior talks between the MWC and C-USA about creating a super conference that would spread across all athletics in both conferences.
“It’s only for men’s soccer; it
doesn’t affect any other sport and has nothing to do with any other discussions with Conference USA the past nine months,” Krebs said. “This is totally independent of all those discussions.”
The MWC and Conference USA made a deal in February to start a new conference as soon as the 2013-14 school year, but the deal fell through because the schools couldn’t come together on revenue-sharing television rights.
UNM is one of three new teams
joining the conference, along with former Colonial Athletic Association member Old Dominion and 2011 national runner-up Charlotte. The three new members will join current C-USA teams Florida Internation-al University, Kentucky, Marshall, South Carolina, Tulsa and University of Alabama-Birmingham.
The Lobos played against the Gold-en Hurricane and the Blazers earlier in the season, coming away with a 2-1 loss against Tulsa on Aug. 31 and a 2-0 win versus the Blazers on Friday.
This is the second time UNM will be leaving the MPSF; the Lobos were part of the conference from 1992-1995 but left to join the Western Ath-letic Conference in 1996. The Lobos came back to the MPSF in 1999, and have dominated the conference since its return. Since 1999, UNM has won seven regular season championships and three MPSF Tournament cham-pionships. Individually, the Lobos have been just as successful, with 91 All-MPSF honors and 81 All-MPSF academic mentions.
Krebs said the program will ben-efit from the national coverage the move will garner.
“I think it will only enhance what is an already incredibly strong prod-uct,” he said. “We were ranked No. 1 for a lot of last year and we’re a top-5 team, we historically play a very strong non-conference sched-ule. This will help our RPI; help our seeding for the postseason; it will bring more national attention to our program because we will be playing teams in other time zones.”
Soccer from page 5
Riddle is also building on a strong performance from last year.
As a redshirt freshman in 2011, Riddle had 199 kills and 239 points, finishing third on the team
in both categories. She also had eight double-kill efforts, playing in all 109 sets and 29 matches.
“For the last two years, with her redshirt year and her fresh-man year, we’ve seen it just go up,”
Nelson said, “and now it’s at the point where she’s just taking over and is the best player on the court in most of our matches. It’s excit-ing to see that, especially that she’s only a sophomore.”
