HOBBS — Eastern New Mexico University’s women put together several solid performances over the weekend in the Ross Black Open track meet, hosted by New Mexico Junior College. Leading the way for the Greyhounds was a 1-2-3-6 finish in the 1,600, led by senior Aminata Kenyawani in a personal-best time of 4 minutes, 51.86 seconds. Sophomore Dorcas Kosgei was second in 4:52.45, senior Malethabo Seema followed in 4:53.31 while senior Lethabo Seema rounded out ENMU performances at 5:03.87. In the 3,000 steeplechase, sophomore Mar...
LAREDO, Texas — To say it was a lost weekend for Eastern New Mexico University’s baseball team would be an understatement. Still with hopes of making the Lone Star Conference’s eight-team postseason tournament, the Greyhounds saw their chances all but dashed during a four-game sweep by Texas A&M International in which the Dustdevils outscored ENMU 40-8. They capped it off on Sunday with a 7-2 victory behind a 15-hit attack and solid pitching from right-handers Joseph Garza-Delapena (5-3) and Andrew Delgadillo, who worke...
CLOVIS - Hobbs has one of the top high school golf programs in the area, but Clovis Christian's boys and Clovis High girls tested themselves against the Eagles and Lady Eagles in Wednesday's CCS Eagle Invite at Colonial Park Golf Course. Suffice it to say, both local teams made some progress. Hobbs turned back CCS, winning the boys team title at 318 to 325 for the defending Class 1-3A state champion Eagles. Meantime, the Lady Wildcats shaved a few shots off their score and...
PORTALES - Hagen Rains pretty much did it all on Thursday. The Portales High senior knocked in four runs with a home run and a single, and allowed three hits and only one earned run while pitching into the seventh as the Rams defeated Roswell Goddard 7-4 in District 4-4A baseball at Ram Field. Rains staked the Rams (9-12, 1-3 district) to a 2-1 lead with a two-run homer to left in the first, then put Portales in front for good with a two-run single through the right side in a...
MELROSE — Only four teams will make it to next month’s Class 1A state baseball tournament — the three district winners and one at-large team. With Logan seemingly in control of District 3-1A at this point, Thursday’s Grady-Melrose doubleheader figured to go a long way towards settling an at-large bid. The teams split, though, with the host Buffaloes pulling out a 6-5 win in the opener and the Bronchos claiming a 10-8 triumph in Game 2 when darkness ended play in the bottom of the seventh. In the opener, freshman Cy Draper...
CLOVIS - A one-day boxing tournament is about to be staged in Clovis. Elijio and Lacy Sena, who run the local Sinner's Den Boxing Gym program, have put together the "One More Round" boxing event for next Saturday at Roy Walker Community Center. About 30 bouts are scheduled. The competition begins around 5 p.m., Elijio Sena said. Doors at Roy Walker will open at 4 p.m. Weight classes are from 55 pounds to heavyweight. The Clovis group includes 35 fighters ranging in age from...
HOBBS — Clovis High’s baseball team managed a run on four walks in the first inning of Thursday’s District 4-5A matchup against Hobbs. But the Wildcats got little going after that. They finished with one hit — sophomore Will Jordan’s third-inning home run — and absorbed a 12-2 setback from the Eagles in a game called in the bottom of the sixth on the 10-run rule. The teams were slated for a doubleheader on Friday night at Bell Park. “We’ll just line it up and try to get better tomorrow, hopefully,” CHS coach Richard Cru...

MELROSE - Coming off three games in the previous four days, including a big win on Saturday, the Melrose baseball team just couldn't find it on Monday against District 3-1A rival Logan. Melrose sophomore Michael Cardonita issued eight walks, and the defending Class 1A champion Longhorns converted six of them into runs en route to an 11-1 victory over the Buffaloes, ending in five innings on the 10-run rule. "We had trouble with walks, and they made us pay," first-year Buffs...
PORTALES — Eastern New Mexico University football coach Tye Hiatt has announced the hiring of Andre McCall as the Greyhounds’ defensive line coach. “We are excited to have Andre join our staff,” Hiatt said. “He’s going to be a great addition to our coaching staff, and he’s already hit the ground running.” McCall joins the staff after spending three seasons at Wayne State (Neb.) in the Division II Northern Sun Intercollegiat Conference. Last season, he helped the Wildcast post a 7-4 record. “Coach Hiatt and (defensive coordi...
CARLSBAD — Monday’s District 4-5A baseball matchup against Carlsbad didn’t exactly go a lot better than last Thursday’s doubleheader at Bell Park for Clovis High’s baseball team. Still, the Wildcats made the Cavemen play the full seven innings this time and, despite being no-hit, they broke up the shutout in the seventh inning. Carlsbad (17-3, 3-0 district), ranked third in Class 5A, pulled away with a five-run fourth to beat the Wildcats 9-2 on Monday night. Last Thursday, the Cavemen won the two games in Clovis by scores...
PORTALES - For the first time in their four-game Lone Star Conference baseball series, Eastern New Mexico University made 12th-ranked Angelo State sweat at little bit on Saturday. It pretty much came down to which side did the little things better, and that was ASU, which scored four two-out runs in the ninth to secure an 11-6 victory and a series sweep at Greyhound Field. Third baseman Jordan Williams drew a bases-loaded walk from ENMU right-hander Tommy Perez, and...
PORTALES - It was a quick turnaround for Portales High's baseball team against District 4-4A rival Artesia on Friday, and the two games didn't go much better than Thursday's contest. The Bulldogs, who won the first game of the series at home 12-2, took two more wins from Portales on Friday at Ram Field - 21-4 in the opener and 6-1 in the nightcap. Artesia (11-9, 3-0 district) pounded out 30 hits in the twin bill, including 21 in the first-game rout which ended in five innings...

LOS ANGELES - Spring practices have delivered the first glimpse of how college football rosters altered by high-profile transfers and coaching changes could shape the upcoming college football season. Here are some top storylines to watch as teams prepare for the 2022-23 season: The transfer portal should affect programs like never before Lincoln Riley's 13 transfers into the USC program is a number that he has said will grow in the coming months, and all college football rost...
PECOS — Texico’s baseball team returned to the .500 mark for the season on Thursday, rolling past Pecos 19-1 and 18-5 in a District 6-2A twin bill. Leading 4-1 after the first inning in the opener, the Wolverines (7-7, 2-1 district) batted around twice in a 15-run third. Both games ended in five innings on the 10-run rule. Sophomore Tristan Lucero went 3-for-3 in Game 1 with a single, a double, a triple and a walk, scoring twice and driving in one. Sophomore Daltyn Cain went 2-for-3 and junior Tristan Chavez finished 2-f...
CLOVIS - It was a long night for the Clovis High baseball team on Thursday. Carlsbad jumped on the Wildcats early in both games and never let up in posting 15-1 and 14-3 triumphs over Clovis in the District 4-5A openers for both teams. The Cavemen (16-3 overall) scored three in the first inning in Game 1, then added back-to-back six-run frames in the fourth and fifth. They then led 10-0 in the second inning of the nightcap. Both games were shortened to five innings on the 10-r...
PORTALES — Angelo State wasted no time making short work of Eastern New Mexico University on Thursday night. The Rams, ranked 12th in NCAA Division II, put seven runs on the board in the top of the first — all after two were out — and added three more frames of at least four runs in routing ENMU 25-4 in the opener of a four-game Lone Star Conference baseball series at Greyhound Field. Freshman catcher Tripp Clark’s three-run triple keyed the first-inning eruption for the Rams (29-10, 27-10 LSC). They made the night easy for j...
CLOVIS - Michael Riess was looking forward to his matchup in the boys 1,600 against Rio Rancho's Dawson Gunn in Thursday's Wildcat Relays at Leon Williams Stadium. He didn't beat Gunn, the top miler in the state this season, but he was well-pleased with his performance. Riess, who broke the PHS record in the event at 4 minutes, 35.36 seconds in Monday's Marilyn Sepulveda Meet of Champions in Albuquerque, was disappointed he didn't see Gunn in that meet. On Thursday, though,...
LOVINGTON — Junior Jolei Adkins shot 39-41 — 80 on Thursday, helping Clovis High’s girls to a second-place team finish in the Lovington Invitational golf tournament. Adkins tied for medalist honors with Lovington’s Aubrey Williams, but lost to her on the first hole of a playoff. “Everybody was watching,” Lady Cats coach Joe Dvozenja said of the playoff. “It was sad for Jolei (to lose), but it was good experience for her.” Only three full teams competed for the girls. Lovington was first at 343, while the Lady Wildcats finishe...
ARTESIA — Artesia pulled away over the final three innings for a 12-2 District 4-4A baseball victory over Portales on Thursday night. The Bulldogs (9-9, 1-0 district) scored the game’s first run in the bottom of the third, then went up 5-1 with a four-run fourth. Artesia ended the game on the 10-run rule with four runs in the bottom of the sixth. The teams were slated to face off again on Friday night in a district twin bill at Ram Field. Artesia chased Rams starter Miguel Gomez in the fifth inning. The Bulldogs pounded out...

CLOVIS — Jamison “Jamie” Bisch was hired by Eastern New Mexico University football coach Tye Hiatt in February to try and help solve the Greyhounds’ problems on defense. Included was a secondary which allowed nearly 250 passing yards per game and 27 touchdowns in 2021. The Greyhounds have added some pieces to that end, but they are hoping several of their returning players will be able to step up to the challenge. “I like our group of kids,” Bisch said on Saturday as the team conducted a practice session at Clovis High...
