CLOVIS — The Yorkie belonging to the child shot at the Clovis library on Aug. 28 is back home. Denise Madrid said Lola was returned Sunday by a woman who said she found the dog on Echols Street, west of where she went missing on Thursday. Madrid said the woman emailed her after reports of the missing dog were published on social media and on The Eastern New Mexico News' web site on Saturday night. "All I had to give her was $100," Madrid said. "It made me sad that was one of t... Full story
CLOVIS — Tom Petty once sang "Waiting is the hardest part." Perhaps his inspiration came from powering through a two-hour lightning delay at a high school soccer game like the one that stretched out Saturday's Manzano-Clovis girls soccer showdown at Leon Williams Stadium. And, if Petty had been at Saturday's game, he may have tweaked his lyric to say, "Wading is the hardest part" because of torrential downpours that pounded the stadium turf and players once the action had f...
ALBUQUERQUE — The Portales girls soccer team could not keed up with Hope Christian in a 5-0 road loss on Saturday. “We couldn’t make our passes and our touches and they were quick and in the right place at the right time,” Rams coach Ruben Tellez said. “We got beat today.” Portales was outshot 19-2 and could not take advantage of the few chances it created. “We played defense probably 70 minutes of the game,” Tellez said. “Every time we had an opportunity we’d overshoot or our passes weren’t there and we’d have to go the o...
PORTALES — If the first 20 minutes were any indication, Eastern New Mexico University never imagined they'd be fighting for their lives in the fourth quarter against Angelo State. But you can blame it on the rain, as a different Ram team emerged from a weather delay than the one who'd given up 21 points and gained 18 yards to that point. Still, the host Greyhounds survived behind a 182-yard rushing night from senior Kamal Cass and moved above .500 again in Lone Star C...
ALBUQUERQUE — They say revenge is a dish best served cold, and Clovis senior Markus Baughman gave Manzano an ice-cold lunch in a 4-1 road win for the Wildcats on Saturday. While Baughman was denied on a few breakaways in the matchup against the Monarchs last year, he made up for it on Saturday with a hat trick. “Last year when we played them at their house he had three or four opportunities he didn’t put away,” Clovis coach Greg Trujillo said. “So he made amends. This year he was able to convert on those opportunities.” Baugh...
