Gov talks pot, free college at state address

By Lissa Knudsen & Justin Garcia Lissa Knudsen @Just516garc SANTA FE — Weed and school, that was New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s focus during her second State of the State address at the second onset of New Mexico’s 54th Legislature on Jan. 21.

Speaking to a joint legislative session, Lujan Grisham outlined her legislative priorities — from the legalization of cannabis to teacher pay raises a hard stance on crime and making college free for New Mexico residents — promising a busy 30-day session in 2020.

“As we open this 30-day session, I challenge you to think beyond the 30 days. Think beyond even this year,” Lujan Grisham said during the speech. “We stand together in the sunrise of a new decade. What we do here in this session, in this coming year, will set the course for what comes over the horizon in 2030 and beyond.”

make tuition-free higher education a reality, benefiting an astounding 55,000 New Mexico students this fall,” Lujan Grisham said.

Lujan Grisham’s Sep. 2019 announcement that she would pursue the creation of an additional statesponsored scholarship has been met with praise from University student-leaders and skepticism from some lawmakers.

As of the publication of this ar-

ticle, the proposed Opportunity Scholarship would allocate $35 million to 55,000 students across New Mexico. The scholarship would cover the remaining cost of attendance after other funds, such as the lottery scholarship and pell grants, were accessed.

Lawmaker skepticism revolved around the proposal’s effectiveness and it’s method of funding.

THE PIT — If ever the Lobos men’s basketball team needed a morale-boosting win, Tuesday night’s home tilt against San José State was it.

After consecutive crushing, nationally-televised defeats at Colorado State (a 33-point loss) and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (a 21-point loss) following star center Carlton Bragg’s removal and amidst a pending lawsuit against the University of New Mexico by suspended point guard JJ Caldwell, head coach Paul Weir’s team looked to be in a midseason tailspin.

Add to the mix injuries sidelining lead guards JaQuan Lyle and Vance Jackson, and Tuesday night’s matchup against San José — who handed UNM their first conference loss of the season on New Year’s Day — could have spelled disaster for a Lobos team which hasn’t been able to get out of its own way of late.

So how did they respond, down four starters and with their undefeated home record at stake?

With an assertive 86-59 victory in what may very well have been the team’s best two-way performance all season.

The game’s first four possessions

The 54th New Mexican legislature is underway in Santa Fe, and the University of New Mexico students will take the northern trek to the Roundhouse on Jan. 27 to discuss all things Lobo for the annual UNM Day. During UNM Day, representatives for the University will lobby, speak and table advocating for UNM related initiatives. UNM Day traditionally has had a focus on changes to the Lottery Scholarship — which funds around 60 to 75% of eligible students’ tuition.

Unlike years past, students will not just be fighting for a portion of their tuition to be covered, but rather all of it. Rather, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham’s proposed “Opportunity Scholarship” would nearly make college free for eligible state residents, as previously reported by the Daily Lobo.

Though the details are blurry, the qualifications for the Opportunity Scholarship would mirror that of the Lottery Scholarship. What is predicted to be different — aside from the funding itself — are the strings attached to the scholarship for New Mexican universities.

A proposed Memorandum of Understanding would limit how

shed light on what was to come before a reported crowd of 10,016 at the Pit. UNM’s customary slow start was thrown by the wayside, with the Lobos scoring on their first two trips on the offensive end while forcing two turnovers in the opening moments.

UNM’s alternating defensive looks swarmed Spartan ball handlers all night, giving up a season-best 27% (17-for-63) shooting while forcing 14 turnovers.

SJSU’s Richard Washington, author of the Spartans’ late-game heroics in their Jan. 1 upset of UNM

in California, was held to just 3 points on the night, while just one Spartan reached double figures: Seneca Knight with 11 points.

After a two-game skid wherein UNM was out-rebounded by a margin of 14 boards in each contest, the Lobos were able to pull even with SJSU in the rebounding column (37-36), a goal Weir made sure to emphasize going into Tuesday night’s matchup.

“I told them if we get even on the glass (with) less than 12 turnovers,

As of the publication of this article, no legislation for the Opportunity Scholarship had been proposed.

much money universities could raise tuition upon implementation of the scholarship, among other requirements. If passed, New Mexico would become the second state to have free higher education.

For employed Lobos, HB 82 would affect pay by increasing the minimum wage rate annually proportionate to the cost of living starting in 2025 and would repeal Section 50-4-23 NMSA 1978, which allows reduced minimum wage for people with disabilities. An average one-bedroom apartment in the Albuquerque metro is about $711 a month, according to Best Places cost of living calculator.

Another timely UNM related bill (SB 56) would provide funding for “mental and behavioral health services” for student-athletes. This comes in light of the death of UNM student and football player Nahje Flowers last fall for mental healthrelated causes.

The Daily Lobo reached out to Associated Students of UNM Governmental Affairs Director Adrian Schmitt for comment on ASUNM’s plan for the event. However, Schmitt did not respond to the Daily Lobo’s request for comment.

Legalization of Recreational cannabis “It’s high time we stopped holding ourselves and our economy back,” said Lujan Grisham as she championed legalizing recreational marijuana use. The audience chuckled a little in response and the governor went off-script to respond back with a, “no pun intended” and a laugh.

The governor made an earnest appeal to the legislators in the room to support legalizing recreational marijuana, dedicating more than a few minutes of her speech to the topic. She claimed that 75% of all New Mexicans support legalization and highlighted that that included rural community support.

She pointed out that New Mexico can learn from the experiences

of other states but cautioned that we don’t want to wait too long for fear of missing out on the economic development potential.

“We can get in on the ground floor or we can try to play catch up — I know which one I prefer,” Lujan Grisham said.

The governor emphasized that legalization would create “a thriving and safe new industry employing thousands of New Mexicans and delivering hundreds of millions in revenue back to cities and counties and the state for public safety and health care,” said Lujan Grisham.

Andy Lyman, a reporter for the New Mexico Political Report, commented in a running commentary of the speech that “the two legalization proposals (that have been

pre-filed) would allow counties and municipalities to tack on an additional four percent tax.” This is a carrot the proponents are hoping will persuade some of the more conservative, rural legislators that previously voted against the bill.

According to a recent Santa Fe New Mexican article, there are still a number of opponents in the NM Senate. Some are concerned about public safety, while others think that New Mexico is already struggling with drug dependence problems and isn’t in a place to add marijuana to the mix.

“I haven’t talked to a law enforcement officer or a rehab director yet that tell me, ‘Oh don’t worry about it, it’s not gonna have an impact,’” Rep. James Townsend, (R-Artesia) told the Santa Fe New Mexican.

the UNM Office of Government and Community Relations.

After the ideas were vetted by University leadership, they were prepared for official approval by the UNM Board of Regents. The 2020 RPSP Legislative Priorities were presented to the Board of Regents at their September meeting.

According to the presentation made to the Regents, this year’s priorities included programs designed to address the Yazzie/ Martinez ruling and the University’s three Grand Challenges: Substance Use Disorders, Sustainable Water Resources, and Successful Aging.

The New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty one page explainer on the topic said that on July 20, 2018, Judge Sarah Singleton ruled that “all New Mexico students have a right to be college and career ready and that the state is failing to meet this obligation. As evidence, the judge pointed to New Mexico’s low high school graduation rate (70%— the lowest in the nation), low proficiency rates in reading and math (70% of New Mexico students cannot read or do math at grade level), and high rates of college remediation (almost 50% who do attend college need remedial courses).”

This ruling led to a number of proposed UNM projects that made it into both the New Mexico Department of Finance and the Legislative Finance Committee’s proposed budgets as well as into a number of free standing bills that individual legislators have introduced with the hopes of eventually getting them included into the final budget.

The legislative proposals that relate to the Yazzie/Martinez ruling include an LFC new recommendation of $300,000 for a ‘Native American Intervention and Retention’ project. And, both the executive budget ($400K) and the LFC ($200K) budgets include new money for a UNM-based “Grow Your Own Teachers Network” project.

The UNM Regents approved this year’s legislative priorities last September. Since then, the UNM Government Relations office has been working with the LFC, the governor’s office, and with state legislators to try to embed UNM’s priorities into both of the proposed state budgets.

The Daily Lobo reached out to the UNM Government Relations office for an interview about the process but the interview was cancelled due to inclement weather.

After the conclusion of the speech Rep. Javier Martinez (DBernalillo), chair of the House Tax and Revenue Committee, and a sponsor of both of the bills expressed support for the governor’s appeal to legalize recreational marijuana.

“This is a sweeping and widereaching proposal, and it deserves to be vetted at length,” Martinez said.

Martinez added that with Lujan Grisham’s leadership, supporters of legalization were able to travel the states and develop a legislative framework.

“Our bill not only protects and enhances the medical cannabis program, but it also ensures that communities most impacted by the failed war on drugs are made whole again,” Martinez said. “I’m

proud of our bill and proud to be working with Gov. Lujan Grisham.”

At the time of publication, House Bill 160 and Senate Bill 115, both dubbed “Cannabis Regulation Act,” had been prefiled.

NM Legislature 30 day session underway

How a Bill Becomes a Law New Mexico has a bicameral legislature: 70 representatives and 42 senators. All 112 will be up for election or reelection this year which means the electeds will be especially attuned to working on issues that will raise their name recognition.

If a legislator agrees that a bill should be drafted, they then go to the legal experts in the Legislative Council Services to write up the language of the bill. That bill is then “introduced” or in the case of the more than 360 bills, memorials, and resolutiwons that have already been uploaded to the NM Legislature’s website, they can be “pre-filed” or introduced in

advance of the session.

Once the bill is determined to be “germane,” meaning it is allowed to be heard during a short session, the House or Senate leadership will refer it to, on average, two committees. Senate Bills will be referred to 2-3 Senate Committees, and House Bills will be referred to 2-3 House Committees.

In order to “pass” the bill must get a majority vote in all of the committees it was assigned to, and then get a majority vote on the “floor” of the chamber it started out in, and then it has to go to the other chamber to repeat the process of being referred to committees, approved by majority votes, and then approved by that chamber.

In the case of a budget item, constituents can work with their legislators to appeal to either the Legislative Finance Committee, who is in charge of drafting the Legislature’s proposed budget or the Department of Finance and

Administration who is charged with drafting the governor’s proposed budget.

The process is referred to as “deliberative” because the framers of the constitution intentionally designed it to ensure that laws were enacted only after having been vetted by a number of the people’s representatives, a number of times, over a period of time.

In 2020, there are a number of pending bills that are relevant to the entire University community.

The Daily Lobo will follow and report on a number of these bills throughout the legislative session, but readers can also track them on their own using the NM Legislature’s MyRoundHouse legislative tracker.

SANTA FE — It’s going to be a busy thirty days. New Mexico legislators are working this year to legalize recreational marijuana, fund free college, address the Yazzie/Martinez ruling and much more.

In the short session, the state’s budget, appropriations and anything the governor deemed worthy will be addressed.

The governor released her message on Jan. 15, setting forth these “exception” bills and listed education, economy, public safety, and health as priorities.

Any bills that are not determined to be “germane” are killed in their first committee.

Despite the State House democratic trifecta, the state budget and what amount should be funded are not a given. Historically, conservative Democrats from rural areas of the state have opposed progressive legislative proposals such as recreational marijuana, same sex marriage or decriminalizing abortion.

Last year the University of New Mexico and the UNM Health Sciences Center received more than $325 million from the state, according to a report prepared by the Legislative Finance Committee. That’s about 4.6% of the state’s total $7 billion dollar budget.

Last May, in addition to instruction and general budget requests, UNM departments were asked to submit Research and Public Service Project Proposals (RPSP) to

NM Mother of the Year recognized for giving back

By Beatrice Nisoli @BeatriceNisoli Robin Brule, an Albuquerque resident and fellow Lobo, was named the 44th New Mexico Mother of the Year earlier this month.

Her advocacy for mothers in the workplace, flexible balancing of her own professional and family life and her philanthropic contributions to her community earned her the nomination.

Brule said she considers the title to be a “heartfelt, unexpected honor and privilege,” and that it reflects how honoring her own mother and supporting motherhood, in general, has been a consistent theme in her life.

In addition to being a mother of three, Brule is currently the chief community engagement officer at Nusenda Credit Union.

Brule considers this career role to be a fortuitous engagement due to its alignment with her personal values of aiding the needs of her immediate community.

“We work on external engagement in the community that we serve, and through the services that we provide, we are able to support economic well-being and growth

in a unique and innovative way,” she said. “It is an honor to have this job, and it is an honor to meet with organizations where they are and support communities.”

Indeed, Brule’s desire to support her surrounding community has motivated her throughout her lifetime and is incidentally rooted in childhood. Brule’s parents fostered her philanthropic inclinations by teaching her to donate an old toy once she received a new one, volunteer at food and clothing drives, and offer support to a variety of service-based organizations in need of volunteers.

“My parents wanted me to have a deep understanding of the world and its challenges, so I was exposed to all ways of life — including spending time on an Amish farm,” She said.

Specifically, Brule’s mother imprinted valuable lessons that have shaped her perspective on life today. Brule’s mother was a public school teacher who would frequently donate Brule’s clothes to her teenage students in need of basic necessities.

“My mother believed that you cannot go a single day without impacting the people around you,” Brule said fondly. “You only see a glimpse of people’s lives, so

be as kind and understanding as you possibly can. There’s always a choice around how you wake up and what you put out there and what you give back.”

Brule has evidently taken her mother’s influence to heart. Before working at Nusenda, Brule worked at St. Joseph’s Hospital, at the University of New Mexico as an executive director of the Children’s Hospital, at the Central New Mexico Community College as an executive director of its foundation, and she even considered becoming a social worker. Furthermore, Brule has helped create support programs for working mothers in various sectors, from healthcare to financial industries.

“I have partnered with organizations to promote workforce development, economic development and what people need holistically for moms to succeed,” Brule said.

Despite the demands of work, Brule ensured that she passed on the lessons she learned in childhood to her own children. Growing up, Brule’s son was involved in Americorps, volunteered at the Animal Humane Society and even assisted the Kids on the Block nonprofit program, giving performances with lifesize puppets intended to educate

NAS club, ARMOR club, Lobo Wrestling Club and Quetzalkuetlachtli) requested appropriations from the finance committee.

Standing rules — rules that committees follow as a framework — can only be changed at the beginning of a term. Senator Lopez took the opportunity to propose modifications to some of the finance committee’s standing rules.

“The cutting was just mostly language,” said Lopez. “A lot of language can be super confusing sometimes and we just wanted to make it easier, not only for groups, but for us ourselves.”

Nearly every student organization saw their appropriation request cut to some degree, either due to the finance committee’s standing rules, redundancy, or misunderstanding a part of the appropriation process. SACNAS Club, ARMOR Club and the Lobo Wrestling Club each had their appropriations tabled.

The amended appropriation requests that passed will be voted on

next week at the first full senate meeting of the semester.

Meanwhile in Steering and Rules, the conversation classically revolved around grammatical corrections within their two pieces of legislation — one upholding Open Meetings Act (OMA) compliance and one commending a student athlete.

Weini Kelati, the record breaking cross country runner and UNM undergraduate, recently won the NCAA Cross Country individual title, among other accomplishments. The commendation also recognized that Kelati is only “the second individual winner in UNM cross country history.”

As for leadership of the committees, freshman senator Suha Musa was elected Outreach and Appointments chair and senator Giovanni Chioda was elected vice-chair. Returning senator Ryan Regalado was elected Chair for Steering and Rules.

As for vice-chair of Steering and Rules, incumbent senator Matthew Zank — who drafted legislation to defund the constitutionally designated

“I always wanted my children to know that you don’t have to have a lot of money to help a community, and similarly, it doesn’t matter what age you are. Anyone can do it,” Brule said.

Brule will be recognized during the 85th National Convention of American Mothers, Inc. in Washington, DC, this coming April.

She will also visit with members of Congress as an ambassador for

New Mexico Mothers.

Brule summed up her life credo and said, “I want to pass on a legacy of, ‘you’re part of this earth, so you have a commitment to it and humankind.’ When you’re 80 years old and looking back, you want to be proud of your journey.”

The Aux: A violent “The Joker” tells compelling story

By Amanda Britt

@AmandaBritt__ The 2019 film, “Joker’, tells the origin story of one of DC Comics’ most notorious super villains through a dark, psychological thriller revealing the sad truths behind Arthur Fleck’s (Joaquin Phoenix) life and the events that led him to become “The Joker.”

Director Todd Phillips’ exploration of Fleck depicts a man who is rejected from mainstream society because of his mental illness and social ineptitude. He then embarks on a downward spiral of anarchy, which leads him towards a path of destruction and self-demise.

The film made over $1 billion at the box office with a budget of about $70 million.

Joaquin Phoenix, known for playing offbeat, eccentric characters, can extraordinarily power a movie that would gross this large amount — unheard of for R-rated flicks. He is more known for smaller critically acclaimed movies with character-driven roles such as the “Gladiator” and “To Die For.” Phoenix’s stellar performance landed him a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Drama Motion Picture. He is also nominated for Best Actor for the Academy Awards.

The film itself won Best Original Score at the Globes and is nominated in 11 categories at the Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Score — the most nominations for a superhero

(or supervillain) movie ever.

It’s rare to see a movie where the audience feels such deep connection and empathy for the antagonist, however, that might be what makes the Joker such a unique and captivating film.

Critics say that the film inspires real-life violence and displays brutal nihilism.

The 2012 shooting massacre in Aurora, Colorado, where James Holmes was found guilty of murdering 24 individuals during the midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises,” had also brought fear a similar event would occur in “Joker” showings. The filmmakers said the movie has nothing to do with national debates surrounding gun violence.

The film is full of violence from the main character, boiling down to mass chaos and anarchy — classic traits of the comic-book character. Although The Joker is typically thought of as a supervillain, it’s more accurate to call him the antihero of this story. His bloody crimes and violence make him evil, but his backstory and struggles with mental illness allow the audience to find a strange sense of sympathy for this character.

The film does a great job of bringing real-world situations and violence into the world of comicbook characters and supervillains.

This allows the film to be relatable and enjoyable for audiences outside of the typical superhero and comic book realm.

Another thing the film does par-

New Mexico Artisan Market brings local artists to Santa Fe in February

By Caitlin Scott

@Caitlin69123118 At the New Mexico Artisan Market (NMAM) visitors and locals can have a shopping experience that honors New Mexico’s community market place traditions. The next New Mexico Artisan Market in Santa Fe will be taking place from Feb. 15 to Feb. 17 and will be held at the Santa Fe convention center from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.

The New Mexico Artisan Market was created in 2018 by the New Mexico Multi-Cultural Foundation and Heritage Hotels & Resorts Inc. They did this to expand and strengthen the creative economy of New Mexico as New Mexico is full of local independent artists.

There will be over 100 artisans

that provide a variety of products.

This event brings together both artists and lovers of art and looks back at the experience of local markets and trade.

“When you are face-to-face with the person that has traded their time and talent to create something for you it creates a human connection,” said Chris O’Donnell, Creative Director for the NMAM. “When you use your buying power to support local businesses, you support our state.”

Jewelers, photographers, chefs, painters, sculptors, seamstresses and much more will sell their products at the market this February.

The artists showcased in the market are selected by a jury, which means a group of creative influencers from throughout New Mexico will choose who showcases their products in the market. According

to the NMAM website, Over 300 applications were juried in 2018 and 130 artisans were accepted for the New Mexico Artisan Market.

Ellen Baca, a Santa Fe based photographer who was showcased at the Albuquerque market said that it was an honor to be showcasing her work in both events.

“I normally do jewelry but there were already so many jewelers showcased at the market. I wanted to be daring and submit some of my photography, something that I have always been passionate about,“ Baca said.

She said that she was nervous when submitting her work to be selected, questioning if she should have submitted her jewelry instead.

“It is extremely difficult to get into any market, especially the artisan market, so I was extremely selective on what photos I sent in

With returning to New Mexico, he decided that he wanted to start a business and figured a food truck was the best way to start.

“I’m a big guy, so I love food,” Martinez said. “I wanted something that would represent New Mexico and help me with my legacy.”

Customers had a lot of positive reviews for the new truck all throughout the day.

“It’s been pretty good so far,” Albuquerque local Kahlina Baca said.

She said that she often comes to the Red Door Brewery and wanted to check out the food truck.

“I hadn’t heard of them before and didn’t even realize they’d be here,” Baca said. “It’s so quick, easy and cheap, and the food is quality food.”

Mi Taco Su Taco offers a two taco plate and a three taco plate. The portion sizes are perfect for a quick meal with a choice between blue corn and homemade flour tortillas.

Every plate is made fresh with an option for salsa and guacamole.

“You can tell the tortillas are homemade and taste amazing. I’ll be coming back here.” Baca said.

Although business was steady throughout the day, some had opinions on the location.

“I found a post about their opening on Facebook, but it took me a while to find the truck,” Lisette Taren said. Taren is a graduate student at UNM and looks for new restaurants to try in Albuquerque.

“There weren’t any signs or decorations leading to the place. It was hidden. I wouldn’t have found it if I didn’t search.” Taren said.

The small menu is good for something quick and easy to eat, perfect for students on a budget.

Mi Taco Su Taco offers a 10% discount for students in the area and also donates excess food to people in the area.

“Whatever leftover food we have gets donated to the homeless. I don’t want it to go to waste.” Martinez said.

Martinez mentions that the food service runs very quickly as they pre-prepared in the morning.

What was most raved about during the opening was the homemade tortillas. Martinez said the recipe comes from his partners’ grand-

to be evaluated,” Baca said. She ended up being voted number three for best photographer at the Albuquerque market.

Her parents Maria Goler Baca and Lawrence Baca were also artists showcased at the market. They create a wide range of Northern New Mexico styled jewelry and sell it at Gee Loretta in Albuquerque. They were also surprised to be selected to showcase their jewelry at both Albuquerque and Santa Fe market.

“We have been creating jewelry for over 20 years and have been to lots of different markets, but this is the biggest we have ever been to.” Maria Baca said. “It is nerve-wracking, but a worthwhile experience.”

Both Ellen and her mother Maria said it was amazing to be a part of events where they got to meet other artists like them as

well as people who love the arts.

While there will be a lot of artists at the market who create traditional New Mexican art, there will be some non-traditionalists as well.

Beth Spencer is an illustrator who creates art with “humor and whimsy.” Many of her prints, pillows, and t-shirt designs involved cats and sayings such as “cat lad till I die.”

There will be plenty to see and artists for all creative styles. For more information about the upcoming event, visit the New Mexico Artisan Market website.

New taco truck calls Red Door Brewery home

By Liz Pritchard

@lizpritchard01 Mi Taco Su Taco is the latest addition to the Albuquerque food truck scene. On Jan. 17, the truck had its grand opening at the Red Door Brewery, showcasing its sweet and simple menu.

“Today is our grand opening and business has been good for the day.” Owner Roman Martinez said.

Martinez, 35, decided to open his food truck after becoming a first-generation college graduate from New Mexico State University.

“I’m actually from Albuquerque, but I went to NMSU for the nursing program,” Martinez said.

After studying for a couple of years, Roman changed his major to culinary arts. There he said he found his passion for food and traveled out of state to get management training in cooking.

“I used to go to the JW Marriott in Palm Springs, California and that’s where I got my management and kitchen training,” Martinez said.

I’d thought we’d put ourselves in a really good position to win the game,” Weir said. “I thought tonight the guys were excellent — (they) followed the game plan to a T.” In the absence of Lyle and Jackson — both out due to similar knee injuries — it was transfer guard Zane Martin who once again filled in as the team’s lead guard, recording 20 points and 4 assists on the night.

“Zane has kind of reluctantly taken on the point guard position most of the year,” Weir said. “He’s a scorer: He likes scoring, he’s good at it, but he’s also our next best point guard right now.”

Martin averaged 16.3 points per game over his last four games, all while starting in a lead guard role.

“I took it upon myself to lead,” said Martin. “I feel like coaches depend on me as the point guard to lead the team in the right direction. I’m also seasoned — I’m a transfer, you know, after two years, so I feel like I’ve pretty much seen a lot of stuff that I can help my teammates with.”

Forwards Corey Manigault and Makuach Maluach also turned in some of their best performances of the season, with the former posting 21 points and 9 rebounds on 8-for13 shooting and the latter putting up 15 points and a career-high 13 rebounds for his first double-double of the season and just the sec-

ond of his career.

Lost in the madness of a tumultuous month for the Lobos has been Maluach’s consistent presence. On Tuesday night, UNM took the floor without four of its five opening-day starters.

Maluach, the only starter remaining, made his 44th consecutive start for UNM against San José.

Starting alongside fresh faces in guards Vante Hendrix, who played 30 minutes for just the second time all year, and Tavian Percy, who got his first starting nod of the season Tuesday and played a career-best 27 minutes, Maluach noted how important it was for UNM’s role players to step up to the plate.

“If guys are down, some guys have got to step up, and I think they did a great job tonight,” Maluach said. “If you get an opportunity, you’d better go out there and take advantage of it.”

With the win, UNM improved to 16-5 on the season. Despite the recent uncertainty clouding the program, the Lobos are still clinging to a 13-0 record at home, its best start during the Mountain West era.

“I know there’s a lot going on with our team and a lot that’s been said about our team,” Weir said, “but that’s something you can’t take away from these guys. I’m

really happy for them ... and I’m really happy for our fans because that’s who we do it for.”

UNM next plays Nevada in Reno on Saturday, Jan. 25. The Lobos hope to be joined by Lyle and Jackson, whose injuries Weir mentioned were not serious or long-term. Ad-

ditionally, UNM’s top 2020 recruit in forward Bayron Matos has committed to joining the team for the spring semester in the wake of Bragg’s dismissal from the team, which — if all goes according to plan — should take place in the coming weeks.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Lobos drop two straight, continue inconsistent play

By Andrew Gunn & Angelina Pompeo

@agunnwrites @PompeoAngelina In what is becoming a dispiritingly familiar narrative to the University of New Mexico women’s basketball faithful, head coach Mike Bradbury’s 2019-20 team dropped two straight games after a pair of rather convincing victories the week prior.

Consistency, it seems, is an increasingly difficult quality to come by for Bradbury and company.

In one of the lowest-scoring UNM women’s basketball games of the season, UNM (11-10, 2-6 MW) lost to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (9-9) at Dreamstyle Arena on Saturday, Jan. 18 in front of an announced crowd of over 5,000. The game ended in a score of 68-51.

Four days later, the Lobos’ offense returned to life but wasn’t enough in a 89-85 defeat at San José State on Wednesday, Jan. 22.

The 51-points scored on Saturday were second lowest only to the 47 scored in an away loss at Arizona State in mid-December.

After Wednesday’s matinee in California, the Lobos slid to 10th in the Mountain West out of 11 teams.

Bradbury began his postgame press conference after the UNLV loss with an unorthodox monologue before taking questions from reporters, detailing a restless night before the game in which he was “torn” between various scenarios of “taking all the hits,” “rolling out the company line” and “telling everybody who I didn’t like and why.”

Before that contest, a statement released by the program announced that sophomore guard Jayla Everett was entering the transfer portal. Everett joined Bride Kennedy-Hopoate and Najala Howell as players to leave the team this season.

Bradbury asserted Everett’s departure didn’t cause a distraction for his team, as she had practiced

with the scout team on the Friday before the UNLV contest.

“Teams have to be able to deal with certain things, and I thought we handled it great,” Bradbury said.

“It is what it is, and we’ll adjust and keep going.”

High hopes at the outset of the season seem to be dwindling with each passing week, as a six-game winning streak to start the campaign is now a distant memory and wins and losses are coming in equal volume.

Throughout the first quarter of the UNLV game, the Lobos held on to a tie until the last minute. Once the Rebels broke a 14-14 tie with 1:15 left, they pulled away for good, doubling their score and holding the Lobos to only 9 additional points. UNLV ended the half with a 41-23 advantage and never looked back.

UNM couldn’t buy a bucket from distance in the opening frame, attempting 11 3-pointers without a single one landing. That trend was unlike any other game this season

and especially contrasted with the previous game against Colorado State, where the majority of the points and shots taken were from beyond the arc.

The Lobos came out from the locker room fighting harder to try and turn the game around, but UNLV only continued pushing the tempo and held nearly the same lead for the remainder of the game.

The Rebels grabbed 58 rebounds compared to the Lobos’ 28. Ahlise Hurst led UNM from the field with 16 points, while Jordan Hosey collected 7 rebounds.

Wednesday’s affair didn’t go much better, as SJSU (13-6, 7-1 MW) commanded a 54-42 lead at halftime and withstood a late fourth-quarter surge from UNM to seal the 4-point win.

Junior guard Jaedyn De La Cerda led five Lobos who scored in double figures with 24 points, and Aisia Robertson’s 14-point, 12-assist effort resulted in her first doubledouble of the season.

Despite the losses suffered by his roster since the beginning of the season, Bradbury maintained UNM doesn’t play in a vacuum and losing players at this rate isn’t “something that doesn’t happen” around the country.

“I know you (reporters) are locked into Albuquerque and all that, but I’m not,” he said after the UNLV game. “People come and go, it’s today’s society. I’m okay with it — I’m used to it.”
