PORTALES — Once the Eastern New Mexico University women’s basketball team let Lubbock Christian back into Thursday night’s game, the Lady Chaps weren’t going away. That tends to happen against the undefeated second-ranked Division II team in the country, a defending national champion. But ENMU didn’t flinch, didn’t fold, when Lubbock Christian quickly erased a big deficit and eventually took the lead in Thursday’s Lone Star Conference showdown at Greyhound Arena. Even in overt...
PORTALES - In the end, the final score is all that matters. And so, when the Eastern New Mexico University men's basketball team fell just shy, 62-60, against Lubbock Christian on Thursday night at Greyhound Arena, it was the Hounds' ninth loss in 14 tries this season, their fourth in nine Lone Star Conference games. No two ways about that. But, there were plenty of positives, the biggest probably that Eastern fought back from a 35-27 halftime deficit to build a 53-46...

Junior Keeli West was the only player in double digits for...

ALBUQUERQUE — After missing the previous two games, coach Jeff Reed was back on the sideline for Clovis High’s girls on Friday night, one week after undergoing an appendectomy. The long bus ride and Volcano Vista’s domination of the Lady Wildcats didn’t make him feel any better. The young-but-talented Lady Hawks rolled to a 23-point halftime lead and cruised to a 63-37 victory over the Lady Cats, who were slated to be back at The Rock on Saturday night to host Lovington. “Volcano Vista’s good,” Reed said. “We did OK against...
I’ve always prided myself on understanding various types of business and business principles, but I fear I’m starting to lose my grasp. Take for instance the idea of employing customer service techniques aimed at getting rid of your lousy carcass because they’ve already feasted on the prime parts of said carcass. Take for instance the television service my wife just had to have in our home. I started the relationship out fighting (the relationship with the TV service, not t...
