ABQ Backyard Refuge program sows homes for wildlife

By Liam DeBonis @LiamDebonis When one thinks of a city, wildlife is likely to be the last thing in the mind’s image. But the Albuquerque Backyard Refuge program aims to change that by increasing the presence of wildlife in the city by empowering residents to create sanctuaries for the living creatures who are native to the land.

Through the program, citizens transform their patios, balconies and lawns into diverse environments teeming with life.

Residents whose yards meet the

standards of the program can apply to certify their spaces as a backyard refuge.

“The goal is to create a mosaic of habitats across the city,” said Laurel Ladwig, the program’s director and a graduate from UNM with a master’s in geography.

The program also seeks to combat the urban heat island effect, a temperature discrepancy between urban and non-urban areas, which has plagued Albuquerque over the past year, according to an article in the Albuquerque Journal.

The program has 127 individuals as well as a number of local businesses participating, according to Ladwig. Participants who

certify their yards receive a sign to display, which marks the property as a wildlife refuge and helps advertise the program to others in the neighborhood.

The UNM University Club became involved in the program in fall 2021, working with Ladwig to transform the property they manage, according to Monica Lopez, the special events coordinator for the University Club.

“The ABQ Backyard Refuge team was able to provide the club with plants that help us deter squirrels and rabbits, since they can be problematic for a venue like ours and created a habitat that encourages other

wildlife to thrive,” Lopez said via email. “We love that they were able to help us find a creative and environmentally safe solution for our situation.”

Brian Anderson, a volunteer for the Albuquerque Open Space Visitors Center and participant in the program, counted roughly 24 different species of birds at his house after participating in the recent Great Backyard Bird Count. For Anderson, his backyard habitat is a sanctuary.

“It’s kind of coexisting with what was here already and supporting what may have been displaced,” Anderson said. “It’s kind of peaceful and entertaining

and it’s definitely good for you.”

Laura Burkemper, a research scientist at the Center for Stable Isotopes, certified her yard late last year but began her backyard transformation around 2020 when she turned to gardening due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Her backyard has become a source of entertainment and education. Since she began, she has found herself noticing more wildlife throughout her day.

“It makes you pay attention more and gets you out of your own head,” Burkemper said.

No. 1: Paul J. Tice Engineering student Paul Tice is running on the platform of Peace Engineering, which “works towards a world where prosperity, sustainability, social equity, entrepreneurship, transparency, community voice and engagement, and a culture of quality thrive,” according to UNM Newsroom.

“I was born here … I’ve been a Lobo since day one,” Tice said.

Tice’s funding priorities revolve around the need for altruism, and one of his goals focuses on Water, Energy and Telecom, or WET, which strives for equity in these areas around the world. If elected, Tice would get a sense of what’s already going on in the administration without making any changes too quickly, instead focusing on improving what is already there, as Tice discussed in the forum. Tice said money is the first significant issue to be addressed.

No. 2: Augustin Ternoir With a focus on innovation and equity, law student Augustin Ternoir said he will aim for student involvement and outreach.

Ternoir said one of his fiscal priorities is to distribute money among contemporary organizations at UNM as well as to encourage the creation of more organizations. He said student organization engagement could be improved upon and wants to “create an environment that encourages more participation and engagement.”

When asked about safety initiatives, Ternoir admitted that he’s not an expert in this area and would coordinate with the UNM Police Department as well as the student

body on their safety concerns, then allocate money to meet “target goals” in these areas.

“If I win, my first interest is going to be securing whatever the priorities of the graduate students and the professional students are,” Ternoir said.

No 3: Inusah Mohammed Inusah Mohammed is a first-year master’s student in the Department of Communication & Journalism and is passionate about intercultural and health communication. Utilizing over a decade of experience with governmental and nonprofit affairs in Africa, Mohammed wants to ramp up student motivation, participation and inclusivity.

At the forum, Mohammed said his nearly 15 years of student activism inspired him to run for this position. He emphasized his diverse list of experiences as well as future goals, such as increasing female diversity in GPSA and hosting interdepartmental games to bring vibrancy to campus and to create a tighter bond between the Associated Students of UNM, the undergraduate government body, and GPSA specifically.

Mohammed talked about the inadequate housing situation for many grad students. When asked about food insecurity and Lobo Food Pantry, Mohammed said that while he’s been a patron of the pantry, there’s still room for improvement. He suggested a student survey for what kind of food students want to see at Lobo Food Pantry.

No 4: Shaikh Ahmad Shaikh Ahmad is a dual-degree

student pursuing a Master of Science in information systems and assurance and a Master of Health Administration. Currently working as the project lead for Project for New Mexico Graduates of Color, Ahmad has past leadership experience as GPSA lobby chair and is a founding member of UNM’s Association for Sustainability.

This is the third year Ahmad has run for this position and he aims for holistic education. One of Ahmad's most pressing issues to discuss with the administration would be better benefits packages, which he mentioned that the grad union, the United Grad Workers of UNM, has also brought up. Ahmad’s funding priorities include supporting minority students’ programs.

The current administration has a goal to better communicate with ASUNM, and when asked about how to continue the improvement, Ahmad said he had the pleasure of working with them in the past on the Student Fee Review Board, where more than $12 million in funds were allocated, and that the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need to strengthen this connection.

No 5: Aaron Cowan A doctoral teaching assistant in learning sciences, Aaron Cowan has two master’s degrees in public administration and organization, information and learning sciences as well as two undergraduate degrees, all of which are from UNM. Cowan is currently GPSA Council chair and has previously served as Elections chair and Legislative Steering Committee chair.

Cowan wants students to be fairly

treated and compensated for their work at UNM. Cowan said he’d like to model his leadership on others he’s seen, such as President Garnett Stokes, who he said has done a mostly good job but is notably lacking in her treatment of the grad union.

To increase GPSA engagement, he said communication methods, such as emails or social media, need to be improved upon. Fiscal matters are another area he has concerns for.

When asked about programs for international students, Cowan said he would work closely with UNM’s Global Education Office, host engagement events to bring students in and invite people from around the world to be public speakers “because there’s so many talented people around the world.”

No 6: Joseph Ikogho After receiving a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Ambrose Alli University in Nigeria, Joseph Ikogho is now in the School of Engineering at UNM. Ikogho is a self-described “lifelong learner” who likes to learn new things, stand up for what’s right and listen to and respect diverse opinions.

If elected, Ikogho’s first week would focus on getting familiarized with the people and groups around him. Ikogho said he would “listen and get acquainted.”

Responding to a question about ensuring that GPSA is representative of the student body, Ikogho said GPSA needs to be more visible and address issues that international grad students face. To get more students to get involved with GPSA,

Ikogho would highlight the career benefits GPSA can provide to students even after they graduate.

No 7: Ansely E. Emeanuwa Ansely Emeanuwa is a student in the Anderson School of Management and hopes to create a vibrant environment for grad students by offering in-person or virtual events.

Emeanuwa has worked to promote Senate Bill 180 and the Pell Grant in the state legislature with different student organizations as well as Club 89, an event series for students 21 and older.

With experience volunteering, farming, running a flower business and a school supply drive, Emeanuwa said “the plan is to help more people.” To enhance inclusivity, Emwanuwa would want more events that cater to students but are also things everyone can enjoy, similar to Club 89.

When asked about the graduate union and plans to support them, Emeanuwa talked about the need for getting more benefits and talking to school administration about it.

“I know the backbones of UNM and I want to bring back just unity,” Emeanuwa said.

a dance historian and retired professor emeritus from UNM’s dance program, first heard about the program in February 2020.

She said during lockdown, she felt a connection with the world at large through the birds that came to visit her and that spending time in her yard and the solace it brings “has been such a gift.”

“One of the beautiful things about it too is that it not only increases our wildlife community, but it also creates a community within Albuquerque, and I think that’s really wonderful,” Newhall said.

Burkemper has planted native grasses and created a pollinator bed filled with penstemon and other flowering plants that attract bees. She also keeps plenty of water sources in her yard to maintain

the required habitat conditions, inviting a range of wildlife to come enjoy the resources.

“I’ve got three bird baths, and the little birds that come to the bird baths are hilarious,” Burkemper said. “They’re always bouncing around and some are very defensive of the water and they’re trying to shoo the other birds away but other ones just don’t care.”

Residents interested in getting involved can go to abqbackyardrefuge.org to access educational materials and get started certifying their space.

UNM student talks spring fashion

rison is hoping to see and indulge in low-waisted skirts and shorts as well as platform sandals.

“I think we’ll see a lot more lowwaisted bottoms this spring … I do not want to see any high-waisted shorts,” Harrison said.

When shopping to align with current trends, Harrison recommends shopping with Tunnel Vision.

“The founder is super cool and tries to be really sustainable and ethical,” Harrison said.

By Natalie Jude @natalaroni University of New Mexico student Emma Harrison has always been interested in clothes and has taken her passion for fashion to the next level since beginning college, using her freedom as a means for increased creative expression.

Harrison is currently studying design and technology for performance with a concentration in costuming and she shared why students should jump into spring fashion.

Creativity Harrison is sad to see layers go with the colder weather leaving but finds that spring can create opportunities for more creative piece play because of the adaptability of lighter garments. She’s excited to see how people experiment this season.

“I just love when I see someone who puts together an outfit that really represents their style, when you can tell it really comes from them and it’s not copied,” Harrison said.

Harrison especially recommends thrift stores for these interesting finds, which she said “really helps you get out of your comfort zone, find pieces that you wouldn’t find otherwise.”

“I started thrifting in high school which definitely helped me explore artistically and begin developing my style,” Harrison said. “(But) I love having access to stores like Pink Rhino, Buffalo Exchange, Savers and more now that I’m in college.”

Sustainability Harrison loves to shop sustainably and hopes to impress the importance of sustainability on others, especially following a year when she found fast-fashion to be detrimentally consuming.

“I really don’t want to see a comeback of the micro-trends we saw last spring,” Harrison said.

“We saw a really big surge in those trends since everyone was home and buying online … I think people have really seen it and we’ve moved past it now, but still.”

Children's Choice Child Care is Caregivers lead activities, play sports, make crafts, have fun and are good role models for school-age children before and after school.

Harrison also enjoys shopping from individual artists at markets and on Etsy.

Durability It’s important, according to Harrison, to find what suits you so that you can re-wear and rework pieces and outfits. Harrison has a select few pieces that she loves to wear, pieces that are built to last not only physically but also through the cyclical trends of fashion.

“It’s important trying to find pieces that you can wear over and

over and over again and just style (in) all different ways that you won’t get tired of,” Harrison said.

Mass-produced fast-fashion pieces also tend to be low-quality and thrifting gives you a far better chance to find something durable, according to Harrison.

Trendiness Harrison enjoys following fashion trends but makes a real effort not to sacrifice her own style in order to fit in. In accordance with broader contemporary fashion trends, Har-

Sexiness Fashion isn’t just a means of artistic expression, but also one of physical presentation. This spring, Harrison is all for open backs — a sophisticated way to show a little skin and keep cool.

“They are sexy in a classy way.

They’re cool — as in comfortable for the warm weather — as well as aesthetically pleasing,” Harrison said. “I think it’s a nice way to show off a little skin in a way that maybe most people aren’t too insecure (about).”

Harrison’s new go-to backless top was recently thrifted, a sheer decorated tie-back with gold sequins.

This spring, Harrison is looking forward to playing with new trends and interests and encourages readers of the Daily Lobo to do the same with ethics and longevity in mind.

UNM admin needs to meet UA-UNM’s push for livable wages

I am very pleased that the New Mexico State Legislature, in response to advocacy from the American Federation of Teachers of New Mexico, decided to include higher education employees in their mandated 3% pay raise and subsequent 4% raise for April and July, respectively.

However, I am increasingly concerned that UNM’s administration is unwilling to meet in negotiations with our faculty union, United Academics of UNM (UA-UNM), to reach an agreement on the distribution of these funds to faculty, unless the negotiation sessions are closed to faculty observation, which violates our UA-UNM core

values of transparency and inclusion. What are they afraid of — the light of day?

So far, UNM’s administration has only offered a 3% raise in April and has been publicly silent about a second 4% raise in July.

Experience suggests that UNM’s administration may have other plans for the additional 4%. In fact, Provost James Holloway mentioned in a Board of Regents meeting on Tuesday, March 22 an average 4% raise in July. If some get more than 4%, then some will receive less than 4%.

Several times in recent years, the administration provided raises that were smaller than those mandated

by the legislature and governor.

I shall be very disappointed to receive less than the 7% budgeted by the legislature and signed by the governor. I am sure other faculty will feel likewise.

At a time when inflation is increasing, all of UNM’s excellent employees deserve to not have their purchasing power further eroded.

As a part-time, temporary instructor (PTI), I currently earn about $4,285 for teaching each three-unit course. Many other PTIs and adjuncts make less than $2,500 per course — mostly at branch campuses and in the College of Fine Arts. For a full-time

teaching load, those PTIs and adjuncts currently make only about $20,000-25,000 per year (depending on workload). A 7% raise for them would amount to an increase of only $1,400-1,750 per year, probably not enough to offset increases in their families’ living costs.

For this reason, I strongly support a minimum pay level for PTIs and adjuncts. Without a livingwage minimum pay, many PTIs and adjunct faculty will fall further into the class of the working poor.

I hope that readers will agree with me that the entire amount allocated by the legislature for raises must go to all UNM faculty as an across-the-board 7% pay raise

and that PTIs and adjunct faculty should be paid a living-wage minimum per course.

Faculty who are reading this now, if you agree with me, please raise your voice in support of these and other UA-UNM compensation requests. And if you’re not already a dues-paying member, join us at https://uaunm.org/. Together we are stronger!

In Solidarity, Billy Brown, Ph.D. PTI mathematics & statistics for 15+ years, Albuquerque Unit 2 vice president, UA-UNM

New Mexico’s children deserve a landscape free of orphaned wells

As proud New Mexicans, we know our state has the best scenery and natural beauty in the nation. While we want to keep it that way, that’s hard to when our landscape is dotted with old, pollution-spewing orphaned oil wells. With New Mexico being the second-largest oil-producing state in the country, we’ve been stuck with a multitude of orphaned wells.

When the companies who drilled and profited from the wells don’t take responsibility for capping and cleaning them, the rest of us end up footing the bill.

The federal government is distributing money for orphaned well cleanup from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which will be a big help.

But funding the cleanup of or-

phaned wells doesn’t solve the root problem. That problem is that the rate for federal bonding — the amount of money oil producers have to pay upfront to cap any wells they walk away from — is simply too low. These rates were set back in the 1950s and ’60s, when the cost of capping and cleaning up a well was much lower than it is today.

These decades-old federal bonding rates need to be updated now so we can spend our tax money where we really want to spend it — on our schools, hospitals, roads and bridges, and all the other public infrastructure that improves our quality of life and makes our modern economy possible.

Last year, the Center for Applied Research estimated that

an additional $8.1 billion would be required to cap and clean up all the wells on state and private lands alone should all current producers go bankrupt or simply walk away. The potential burden to New Mexicans is even greater when you factor in the nearly 32,000 wells on federal lands in the state.

Thankfully, the Department of the Interior agrees that it’s time for bonding reform. Their latest report recommends increasing minimum bond amounts and adequately reviewing leases to ensure that costs are covered.

This way, when a company goes bankrupt or abandons their wells, the forfeited bond amount is enough to cover the cost of cleanup — and the rest of us can finally stop paying the bill.

And the issue has some traction in Congress as well. Last year, U.S. House Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández introduced the Orphaned Wells Cleanup and Jobs Act. The bill would increase minimum bonding amounts in addition to helping fund the cleanup of more than 56,000 wells on federal, state and tribal lands across the country.

Our neighbors in Colorado are dealing with the same problems, and U.S. Senator Michael Bennet introduced the Oil and Gas Bonding Reform and Orphaned Well Remediation Act, co-sponsored by our own Senator Martin Heinrich. This bill would also strengthen bonding requirements while providing states and the Bureau of Land Management with funding to

reclaim orphaned wells. These bills lay out the type of action that needs to be taken at a national level to fix this problem in both the short and long terms.

We need the Biden administration and Congress to act now to address this urgent problem.

We don’t have time to waste on these reforms — another round of oil and gas leasing is set to begin soon with the archaic rates still in place. We’ve paid for this mess for too long, and it’s past time to tip the balance.

REVIEW

starry form more akin to an anime character’s. It’s no wonder that film director and writer Domee Shi was a fan of anime in her youth and a fan artist, as she explained in an interview for That Shelf.

As the title would suggest, the central plot of the film centers around Mei’s ability to turn into a red panda. Mei doesn’t become a panda for long periods of time; her panda moments are explosive, adolescent bursts that she quickly learns to assuage by visualizing her friends (a great technique from cognitive behavioral therapy).

Instead of dehumanizing its protagonist of color, “Turning Red” portrays bubbly, buoyant Mei as both a normal tween and one with the power to transform into an animal representing her family.

The red panda is a cuddly, commodifiable emblem for the film, but it’s also a powerful symbol of generational strength. Mei’s ancestor Sun Yee relied on her fiery inner

Pixar’s ‘Turning Red’ is a colorful exploration of family dynamics

By Nell Johnson @peachnells This review contains spoilers

While I was thrilled that Pixar finally returned to making movies with more than one word in

the title, I didn’t have much hope for “Turning Red” originally. After all, it’s hard to compete with the classics of the aughts. Despite this, I realized that the film actually leans into the viewer’s nostalgia to soothe the older viewer and draw them into the plot.

I immediately enjoyed the set-

ting, color scheme and animation of the movie. The protagonist, spunky Chinese Canadian Mei Lee, isn’t that awkward blend of hyperrealistic and cartoonish character design seen in films like “Encanto” and “Frozen.” Her face has Ghibli-style proportions: a big, expressive mouth and eyes that change into a bright,

red panda spirit to help keep her family safe in dire straits.

In the 21st century, however, the women of the Lee family view their pandas as an annoyance, if not dangerous beasts (when you watch “Turning Red,” you’ll see just how monstrous the furry creatures can get). Though Sun Yee needed her red panda, it was also a sign of her pain. The Lee women chose to relinquish their pandas, banishing them into intricate jade jewelry.

The metaphor of the red panda as unresolved family trauma urges parents to address what they’re holding inside as well as prompts their children to see their parents as people. At the emotional core of the film, Mei encounters her mother Ming as a 13-year-old girl and brushes a lock of panda-red hair behind her ear, comforting her.

‘Turning Red’

from page

misogynist archetypes, like the hyperfeminine mean girl, but “Turning Red” succeeds in depicting its girly girls in a positive light.

The classmate we expect to be framed as mean, Stacy, who sports a blonde head covered in nostalgically fashionable butterfly clips, adores Mei’s pandahood instead of admonishing it.

Even Tyler, the blackmailing, braces-wearing bully, takes a backseat to the primary source of narrative tension. The main conflict is between two complex characters who love each other — Mei and her mother — a step up from the simple struggle between good and evil often played out in kids’ media.

Though the film sure likes to shove its Canadianess down your throat with maple leaves everywhere and moose dashboard decorations, the art direction

5 lennials and Gen Zers alike will relish in the angelic imagery of 4*Town, who appear to be a convenient conglomeration between modern-day BTS and the aging Backstreet Boys.

“Turning Red” comes at a time when the children of millennials are approaching teenagehood.

The nostalgia evoked by the setting makes parents remember what it was like to come of age, however different that is in 2022 as compared to 2002. “Turning Red” provides a visually stunning and lasting image of what it means to nurture the inner child and break free of generational cycles.

transforms 2002 Toronto into a pastel paradise of pink and green.

The minutiae of Mei’s life are the most memorable, like the “This Girl

Loves Math” sticker on her flute case and her star stick-on earrings.

These saccharine details combined with the secondary tension

of the film — how Mei and her friends will see their cherished boy band 4*Town live — creates a nostalgic world for the viewer. Mil-

UNM student takes on American Ninja Warrior challenge

By Elizabeth Secor @esecor2003 University of New Mexico student Cassie Dierks will be competing for the third time through the American Ninja Warrior challenge course.

Dierks previously competed in 2021 on season 13 and in 2020 on season 12. The course features intricate obstacles, including the infamous warp wall, which contestants must make their way through in an attempt to be first through the first of four courses to win the cash grand prize.

In both of her past runs, Dierks has wiped out on the second obstacles, called “Lunatic Ledges” and the “Overpass.” Going into her third competition, she has adopted a specific training policy to prevent repeating the same mistakes.

“I try to focus on techniques that you can transfer from one obstacle to another. Building general strength and reflexes and stuff like that kind of helps transfer over between different

things,” Dierks said. “I've been doing a lot of rock climbing and speed climbing. I think that's particularly helpful because every time you go rock climbing, there's a different route that you have to try, so you have to learn to adapt to different situations.”

The mental strength to navigate the course in real life, where things are at a different level compared to viewing the course through the television, is something that she’s had to work on.

“When I saw the obstacles in person, it was crazy and overwhelming because it looks so much different in person than it does on TV. It's not what you expect, and the lights are so much brighter, and the obstacles are so much bigger,” Dierks said.

Dierks attributed her ability to overcome the mental and physical challenges of preparing for the show to the people around her supporting her.

“One of the best things I have going for me for competing is I have a lot of support. My mom is a huge cheerleader for me. She's always watched me do all (the) local ninja competi-

tions at the local gyms ... I've (also) got my dad, my brother, my grandparents and my boyfriend. They're all just super supportive,” Dierks said.

In the past competitions, Dierks’ family had to show their support via screens due to the COVID-19 pandemic limiting in-person audiences, something that will change going into this year’s competition.

“This year is going to be the first year that they've decided it's safe enough to have a limited audience,” Dierks said. “I think it'll definitely feel a lot different. I'm not sure if it'll make me more nervous or if it'll make me more comforted, but I guess we'll see.”

Dierks is keeping all of the lessons she’s learned from her past runs in mind going into this next run. Dierks said she wants to approach her next run with a positive mindset.

“I've learned that you can't expect what obstacles there's going to be.

There's no way to control the obstacles there's going to be, and it's very likely that there're going to be obstacles you haven't had an opportunity to try before,” Dierks said. “This time,

Mackenzie Schwartz / Daily Lobo / @mackenzid5

American Ninja Warrior contestant Cassie Dierks stands by the Duck Pond.

I'm not worrying about it as much. It's just kind of going to be what it's going to be. I'm just going to train my hardest and just have fun.”

Lobos softball team gets swept in home series against Utah State

By Shelby Kleinhans @BirdsNotReal99 The University of New Mexico softball team suffered a string of tough losses after Utah State University swept the Lobos in a three-game series from Friday, March 25 to Sunday, March 27 at the Lobo Softball Field in Albuquerque. While the Lobos still have a solid record of 20-12 overall, they have had a rough start to their conference season and are sitting at 1-5 after playing San José State and Utah State.

The Lobos almost out-hit Utah

State in Friday's game 7-8 and managed to out-hit them 11-7 during Saturday’s game, but Sunday’s game was another story. The Aggies out-hit the Lobos 12-6 and run-ruled the Lobos in the sixth inning. Offensively, Andrea Howard and Ashley Archuleta stood out from the pack in the series.

Coming off a tough 4-5 loss Friday night against Utah State, the Lobos couldn’t seem to shake off their nerves by the time Saturday’s game started. Right off the bat, the Aggies bunted the first pitch Emma Guindon threw and advanced to second base

due to a Lobos throwing error. The Aggies managed to get the runner to home, but Guindon stopped them from scoring more than one run.

The Lobos answered back with a successful bunt of their own, thanks to Peyton Robinson, and Taryn Young’s infield single allowed Robinson to cross home plate and tie the game 1-1.

The second inning saw the Lobos show off their athleticism in an incredible double play. First baseman Reyan Tuck picked the ball, threw it to Ashley Archuleta on second to get the lead runner out and Archuleta threw

it back to Tuck in time to get the out at first. Unfortunately for the Lobos, the Aggies also turned a double play in the bottom of the second, although a far less impressive one. Neither team scored for the inning.

The 1-1 tie lasted until the fifth inning when the Lobos started to gain some momentum with hits from Archuleta, Howard and Young, with Archuleta scoring the elusive second run, making the score 2-1.

The audience came alive and even started stomping on the bleachers to send some of their energy to the team, but the Lobos couldn’t add

another run in the inning.

Amber Linton stepped onto the mound for the Lobos in the sixth inning and only allowed one hit. But the Aggies rallied in the top of the seventh inning, putting three runs on the board off three hits, taking the lead and making it a 4-2 ballgame. The Lobos tried to rally in the bottom of the seventh, but after Diamond Sandoval’s line-drive hit on Aggie pitcher Jessica Stewart, the Aggies dugout became loud and aggressive, cheering their teammates on to help bring a swift end to the inning and the game.

Ironically, the game was a special “Bark in the Park” event where fans were encouraged to bring their dogs to watch the game. Instead, they ended up watching the Lobos get put in the doghouse.

Sunday’s game started off more promising for the Lobos. In the first inning, Linton recovered from a passed ball that let the Aggies score by throwing a strikeout to end the inning. The Lobos answered back with a double from Robinson and a single from Archuleta that evened the score to 1-1.

But what started out as a back-andforth competition slowly became a game dominated by the Aggies, who pulled ahead quickly, leaving the Lobos in the dust for the rest of the game. The Aggies added two runs to their score in the top of the third and one run in the top of the fourth while the Lobos were unable to answer back, making the score 4-2.

The Aggies extended their lead in the top of the fifth with four additional runs, thanks in part to two Lobos fielding errors and a passed ball. The Lobos got a bit of energy back when

Robinson bunted right in front of home plate and a throwing error by the Aggies catcher put her on third.

The Lobos added on two more runs in the bottom of the fifth after an Archuleta single led Robinson to score and a program record 40th home run

by Howard, bringing the score to 8-4.

The Aggies quickly put the Lobos to bed shortly after this with an additional five runs in the top of the sixth, resulting in a run-rule win for the Aggies of 13-4 after the Lobos failed to put any runs on the board in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Despite the weight of the loss, UNM head coach Paula Congleton expressed how proud she was of Howard’s home run achievement and that she was happy such a “phenomenal human being” could celebrate that at a home game. Regarding her team’s performance, she said she was a bit surprised at the outcome but took it all in stride. ”All good teams go through some valleys to reach the peak. And so we really feel like (Sunday’s game) was very uncharacteristic of what our team usually does,” Congleton said.

The Lobos will try to bounce back against Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah for a three-game series March 31-April 1. Conference play will resume April 8-10 with a series against Colorado State University, and the Lobos will play at home again for a series against Fresno State April 14-16.

UNM women’s tennis falls to Air Force 4-0

By Thomas Bulger @thomasbulger10 The University of New Mexico women’s tennis team lost to the United States Air Force Academy Falcons on Friday, March 25 in their first interconference match of the season.

The Lobos are now on a three-match losing streak but still have a winning record of 9-4 on the season.

The Falcons have a record of 12-3 and are led by senior Vivian Glozman, who is undefeated this season with 11 straight wins.

The Falcons got the upper hand early with their doubles matches.

Lobos Maria Sodre and Yue Lin Chen lost 6-2 to Glozman and Karina Chao.

Lobos Myu Kageyama and Hsuan Huang were leading their match 4-3, but they had to leave the match unfinished due to Falcons Hailey Stelse and Alex Kuo winning their match 6-1. The Lobos were down 1-0 going into the singles matches.

Chen rematched against Glozman for their singles match, with Glozman running away with the lead and winning two sets 6-2 and 6-1. Kageyama

played Chao for her singles match and kept it close for the first set, only losing 7-5. Kageyama lost momentum going into her second set, though, and lost 6-3.

Lobo Sataho Toriumi won her first set 6-4 against Kuo but lost her second set 6-3. Kuo had the lead against Toriumi 2-0 in their third set before it was canceled. Lobo Sara O’ Connor won her opening set 7-5 and was battling with her opponent in the second set; the score was 5-5 before it was left unfinished. Hsuan Huang lost her

first set 7-5 but had a lead 4-3 in her second set. These matches were unfinished as Air Force had won three singles matches and the doubles, giving them the win for the entire match.

Going into the match between Lobo Hsian-Wen Huang and Falcon Hailey Stelse, Air Force only needed to win one more match to be victorious. In their first set, Stelse won 6-1.

Huang battled back to try to keep her team alive but ultimately lost 7-5 in the next set, cementing the Lobos’ defeat.

The Lobos lost 4-0, making their record 9-4 and 0-1 in conference play.

After the match, UNM head coach Vicky Maes gave credit to the Falcons for their wins in the doubles matches and said she was happy with how the Lobos were able to battle in some of their matches. She also called it a disappointing match because UNM was unable to capitalize on the opportunities they created for themselves.

She said that, in the team huddle, she told her team that they need more mental toughness, but she said she is
