Thank you all for sticking with us here during this time and keeping us going another year! We have some more things we’d like to add in the new year and honestly just glad we have you to help get our players the looks they need, also great sports talk and overall for creating the spot to be for everyday New Mexico athletics!
Have a wonderful day!

Henry (Academy 2022 RHP/MIF) has changed his commitment to the US Naval Academy. Always amazed when kids choose one of the academies!

Round 1: Favorite Xmas food you'll eat this week (ex. Biscochitos, Tamales, Brisket). Only pick one.

Round 2: Favorite tradition you have

The upsets by the Bengals and Jets were truly shocking. The Jet win over the Rams may have cost them the number 1 draft pick but the players and coaches were happier than fat rats eating cheese. Going ofer for the season would have been a dubious distinction. The Bengals beat the Steelers for the first time since 2009. They celebrated as if they had won the Super Bowl. Just goes to to show you in any given game in the NFL, anyone can win.

Historically, UNM gets hammered for missing kids but which program UNM or NMSU actually recruits NM kids more?

I think we know Eastern - what about Western and Highlands? Does NMMI still?

Sally Marquez is having a meeting with the football coaches on Tuesday at 1:30 PM. It's either really good news or really bad news. If nothing significant is happening, why have a meeting with such short notice? What do you guys think we will hear?

I was 100% sure we were going to have a season until volleyball got shut down. After talking to Howie, I felt a little bit better about us having a season, but honestly I don't know.

Where and when are players playing this Spring? I’d like to go cover some teams or players.. I know been some in Phoenix and Texas which would be okay..thanks!

The team is 0-4 right now after playing in four close battles against good competition. However, the good news is freshman Jessica Rios (Centennial High School/Las Cruces) is averaging 8 points per game - played in all four games and started the latest. Sarah Abney, a redshirt Sophomore, from Las Cruces High School is averaging 7 points per game, playing in all four games, starting the last three.

Lobos struggling to find opponents and found a sluggish start against Our Lady of the Lake, who was coming off a win against D-1 Texas State was firing from beyond the arch. The Lobos blew it open in the second half. UNM 104-65 win. The other win was against Rice late last week.

Key
Both Patterson were on the court.
Clay Patterson, Junior, knocked down a triple in the second half for his first buckets as a Lobo.
