11 Lobos Lace Up for NCAA Outdoor Championships – University of New Mexico Lobos athletics
“CHAMPIONS WEAR TURQUOISE”It was 2011 when UNM first donned turquoise at NCAA Championships, an idea hatched by former UNM Head Coach Joe Franklin at the time. In their first iteration, the uniforms were originally white and dip-dyed by hand — three times, to be exact— in order to reach the proper turquoise color. The Lobos […]
“CHAMPIONS WEAR TURQUOISE”
It was 2011 when UNM first donned turquoise at NCAA Championships, an idea hatched by former UNM Head Coach Joe Franklin at the time. In their first iteration, the uniforms were originally white and dip-dyed by hand — three times, to be exact— in order to reach the proper turquoise color. The Lobos didn’t get officially printed turquoise uniforms for nationals until after they won their first women’s NCAA team Championship in 2015.
More than a decade later, wearing turquoise has become both a privilege and a tradition that honors the state of New Mexico that the Lobos represent. Only UNM athletes that reach the NCAA Championship race in cross country or qualify for NCAA Indoor or Outdoor Championships wear turquoise — the color is meant to be earned and worn with pride.
THE RISE OF HABTOM SAMUEL
Read more about the unrelenting will — and obstacle-laden journey — that has taken sophomore Habtom Samuel to new heights ahead of his second NCAA Outdoor Championship appearance.
GAUSON INKS FIVE-YEAR EXTENSION AFTER BIG SECOND YEAR
University of New Mexico Vice President/Director of Athletics Fernando Lovo has announced that Head Cross Country/Track & Field Coach Darren Gauson has received a five-year contract that will keep Gauson at the helm of UNM’s nationally ranked programs through the 2029-30 season.
“Darren has elevated every aspect of our program,” said Lovo. “In just two years, he’s built a championship culture and a team that consistently performs on the national stage. His leadership, vision, and ability to develop talent are exactly what we look for. Securing Coach Gauson was a top priority. He embodies what we’re about: excellence and championships.”
Gauson in just two seasons at UNM has won five Mountain West Coach of the Year Awards, being named Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year in both 2023 and 2024, Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year in 2024 and both Women’s Indoor and Women’s Outdoor Coach of the Year in 2025. In that span, his teams have won five Mountain West titles, four of which have come this year.
That included UNM’s first Mountain West title in women’s outdoor track and field, a win which clinched the first sweep of all three women’s titles in UNM history.
“I am very appreciative of President Stokes, the Board of Regents, and Athletic Director Fernando Lovo for their amazing support of Lobo Cross Country and Track & Field,” said Gauson. “Sustained excellence is only possible when there is clear alignment and strong support—qualities that are firmly in place at the University of New Mexico. It is a tremendous honor to serve this program and I am eager to bring future championships to our great state. I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to Amy Beggin and my dedicated staff for their invaluable contributions. I look forward to continuing to build championship-caliber teams alongside them.”
In his two seasons with UNM, Gauson has coached eight All-Americans in cross country including three runner-up finishes, along with 11 All-Americans in indoor and outdoor track and field to go with one national champion and one runner-up. That number will likely increase as UNM heads to the NCAA Outdoor National Championships next week. UNM qualified 11 student-athletes into the field, second only to Harvard among non-P4 institutions, and tied for the second-most all-time at UNM. UNM ranks tied for 28th among the 68 Power-4 conference schools in terms of total qualifying student-athletes.
The 11 qualifiers came after sending a whopping 27 to the NCAA West Regionals, up from 12 a year ago. In the 2024-25 academic year alone, New Mexico athletes set 22 new program records with 58 performances that rank among the Top 10 in program history – among them, eight performances ranked among the Top 5 in collegiate history.
In 2024-25, the Lobo cross country teams both finished in the national Top 10 for the first time in school history, with the women’s team finishing seventh and the men’s team finishing ninth. In both the men’s and women’s races, UNM had the national runner-up, including a miraculous finish by Habtom Samuel, who ran much of the race in Wisconsin on a frozen track with just one shoe after losing it halfway through the race.
UNM’s men’s point total of 272 in that 2024 race was the lowest in program history.
The Lobos’ sweep of the men’s and women’s cross country titles were the first for UNM – and in the Mountain West – since 2014. UNM’s Pamela Kosgei was a finalist for the Honda Sports Award, recognizing the best student-athlete in cross country. At different points this season, Kosgei, Habtom Samuel and Ishmael Kipkurui have all been named to the Bowerman Watch List, awarded to the top track & field athlete in the country.
LOBO TRIO RANKED AMONG TOP 25 NCAA TRACK STARS
In NCAA Track & Field’s Top 25 D-I Both-Genders All-Events rankings released three weeks ago from Stan Becton, Habtom Samuel (No. 5), Ishmael Kipkurui (No. 6) and Pamela Kosgei (No. 8) all cracked the Top 10.
LOBOS VS. THE WORLD
Entering this week, the Lobos have seen three different athletes post world-leading marks in three events – Pamela Kosgei (9:15.63) and Matthew Kosgei (8:22.13) led the world in women’s and men’s steeplechase, with Ishmael Kipkurui’s 26:50.21 NCAA-record performance at Sound Running’s THE TEN leading the world in the men’s 10,000m. Behind Kipkurui, Habtom Samuel’s 26:51.06 clocking at THE TEN – the No. 2 performance in NCAA history – also ranked No. 2 in the world.
HANNA KIESS KEEPS CLIMBING
400 hurdler Hanna Kiess – a walk-on who joined the team ahead of last indoor season – has posted a new personal best in eight of her last 10 races dating back to her first outdoor season in 2024, climbing up the UNM all-time list in the process.
In her very first 400 meter Hurdle race of the season she clipped off a 59.50 which moved her up to fourth-fastest all-time at UNM– she followed two weeks later with another PB (59.29) and the next day grabbed another PB (58.73) at two different meets at Long Beach State. That performance moved her to #3 all-time at UNM before another PB (58.40) that moved her up to #2 all-time. In MW prelims, she easily advanced to the final with a 59.27 – still the ninth-fastest time in Lobo history. In the five-decade history of Lobo women’s track (1975-present) there had only been seven athletes who ever dipped under the 60.00 threshold in the 400 meter Hurdles – of those seven, one was her coach, Kyra Mohns.
In the final, Kiess produced yet another stunning improvement, holding off a Colorado State athlete down the stretch to finish as runner-up with a 58.03 performance that moved her up to No. 30 in the West Region and ensured she’ll get to race at least once more this year in addition to running a leg of the women’s 4x400m relay.
That 58.03 time broke a UNM record held by Shannon Vessup (58.10) that had stood untouched since 1984 and Kiess improved on it further at NCAA West Regional Prelims, becoming the first Lobo woman to run below 58 seconds with a 57.70 personal best in College Station. Less than two hours later, she ran the fastest 4x400m relay leg of her career to help UNM’s relay advance to Eugene.
JUDY RONO’S STOCK IS RISING
Judy Rono now owns the fastest time in UNM history in the 1,500m (4:09.07) after taking more than two seconds off her previous best (4:11.45) from Bryan Clay to advance on time. Rono and the previous 1,500m program record holder Abbe Goldstein are the only Lobo women to run below 4:12 in school history. Rono is now a two-time MW Champion in the 800m, winning gold in both indoor and outdoor in her first collegiate season.
Rono improved on her season best as she took home MW gold in the 800m in Clovis, clocking a 2:03.91 time that stands as the second-fastest 800m in program history and fastest by a Lobo woman since 1976 (2:03.98). She also showed some range later in the same day, posting a 5,000m PR as part of a 30-point effort for the Lobo women in the event, posting a 16:11.64 to finish fourth.
RANKINGS CHECK-IN
After both the UNM men and women stayed ranked among the Top 30 in the nation for all six USTFCCCA TFRI rankings of the indoor season, both teams cracked the Top 10 in the same weekly ranking for the first time in program history this year and have both remained in the
The UNM men remain at No. 8 – their ninth week in a row in the Top 10 – after rising matching a program-best with a No. 6 national ranking in Week #4 and Week #9. Their previous best was No. 18 in the final week of the 2011 season.
Likewise, the UNM women remained in the Top 25 for the ninth week in a row, coming in at No. 23 this week. In the time since they clocked in at No. 7 in the nation in the final regular-season ranking of the 2019 season, the Lobo women had only cracked the Top 10 as a team once until Week 2’s No. 8 ranking, coming in at No. 9 in the nation in Week 4 in 2022.

Clio Phillip and Ericka Gaspard emerged as undefeated champions at the Eastern Caribbean Volleyball Association’s Under-21 Beach Championships.
The Saint Lucian duo dominated the tournament, winning all five of their matches without dropping a single set. Their gold medal victory was sealed with a 2-0 (21-11, 23-21) triumph over Antigua & Barbuda’s Jassania Joseph and Jaya Carr in the final.
Competing on the sands of St Kitts & Nevis, Phillip and Gaspard faced a tense moment in the second set, trailing 19-20. But with composure and sharp execution, they clawed back to win 23-21, capping off a flawless tournament run.
“We feel great, we are excited, we are happy,” Phillip said. “This is what we came to do; win the gold!”
“We really had to work hard in the last set,” added Gaspard. “Our confidence allowed us to push through the last points.”
In the bronze medal match, Dominica’s Alyssa Bully and Joyan Pascal battled to a thrilling three-set victory over Anguilla’s Deandra Fleming and Lavesha Richardson. After taking the first set 21-14, Bully and Pascal narrowly lost the second 22-20 but stormed back in the decider, winning 15-7 to secure third place.
Meanwhile, Saint Lucia’s Rio Victor and Peter Emmanuel claimed silver after falling 2-0 (21-17, 21-15) to defending champions Mervin Mingo and Bill Frederick of Dominica. Grenada’s Zerick and Hamilton rounded out the podium with a hard-fought 2-1 (21-17, 12-21, 15-11) win over St Kitts & Nevis’ Sundar and Pencheon for bronze.
The top three teams from the tournament will represent the ECVA at the NORCECA World Championships Qualifier Tournament.

Philadelphia, PA – La Salle University Vice President of Athletics and Recreation and Director of Athletics Ashwin Puri released the following statement regarding the House vs. NCAA settlement:
On June 6, Judge Claudia Wilken provided final approval of the House vs. NCAA settlement, marking a historic shift in college athletics. This class action settlement introduces significant changes, including allowing colleges to directly pay athletes for the first time and providing backpay to former athletes for missed Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities. As this settlement demonstrates, college athletics is evolving at an unprecedented pace. For institutions opting into the settlement, the key provisions include:
Key Settlement Provisions
Roster Limits:
- Athletic scholarship limits for each sport will be replaced by new NCAA roster limits for schools opting in.
Revenue Sharing:
- Schools that opt in can directly pay athletes, sharing up to $20.5 million annually in revenue with student-athletes.
Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL):
- Student-athletes must report third-party NIL compensation exceeding $600.
- New rules and regulations will govern third-party NIL agreements, enhancing transparency and compliance.
Additionally, all Division I institutions, including La Salle, are required to provide backpay to former student-athletes who participated between 2016 and 2024. Regardless of their decision to opt in, schools collectively owe approximately $2.8 billion in damages over the next 10 years to eligible former student-athletes.
La Salle University’s Commitment
In light of this landmark decision, La Salle University has chosen to opt into the settlement, aligning with many peer institutions in Division I and the Atlantic 10 Conference.
We are grateful for the leadership of President Daniel J. Allen, University administration, and the Explorer community for their steadfast support of our athletic department. This decision reflects our commitment to college athletics and our student-athletes, positioning us for a promising future.
Supporting the Future
To support our ongoing competitive excellence initiatives, we invite you to contact:
- Drew Young, Chief Athletics Revenue Officer, at youngam@lasalle.edu
- Safet Kastrat, Men’s Basketball General Manager, at kastrat@lasalle.edu
Gifts made to support these efforts are now tax-deductible. We welcome the opportunity to share our comprehensive plan for competitive excellence in this new landscape.
Additionally, no current La Salle student-athletes will lose their opportunity to compete due to roster limits. Beyond the benefits of revenue sharing, we are committed to investing in our facilities, including the newly renovated John E. Glaser Arena. Our current fundraising efforts focus on renovating locker rooms, upgrading competition surfaces, and installing new scoreboards. These initiatives are essential to providing a first-class student-athlete experience. To contribute to these efforts, please contact Drew Young.
Thanks to your continued support, the future of La Salle Athletics is brighter than ever. Together, we will navigate the evolving landscape of college athletics, ensuring success both on and off the field.
Go Explorers!

ST. LOUIS — Former UNI volleyball student-athlete Kira Fallert has been named the female recipient of the 2025 Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Dr. Charlotte West Scholar-Athlete Award, as announced by MVC commissioner Jeff Jackson and the league office on Tuesday.

By virtue of receiving this honor, Fallert will also serve as the conference’s nominee for the NCAA Woman of the Year award, which will be announced at the upcoming NCAA Convention in Washington, D.C. in January 2026.
A Maplewood, Minnesota native, Fallert becomes the eighth Panther student-athlete to receive the honor and fifth woman to do so.

She notched eight double-double performances this year, surpassing 1,000 career digs to join UNI’s elite Double Grand Club and recorded ten or more kills in 26 matches, including 18 of her last 22 outings.
For her stellar senior campaign, Fallert was named the MVC’s Co-Player of the Year, as well as a First Team All-MVC honoree, and an American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-Region and All-American selection.
Fallert, who finished her career seventh all-time with 1,446 kills in school history, was also named to this year’s MVC All-Tournament Team and became the first player in MVC history to win the league’s Elite 18 Award three consecutive years for posting the highest cumulative grade-point average (GPA) in the MVC Tournament’s championship match. Graduating this spring with a degree in biology with a 4.00 GPA, earning College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District and Second Team All-American recognition.
In addition to her academic and athletic success, Fallert has been a prominent member of her community, volunteering at her hometown church, helping at camps for children with communication disorders, coaching youth volleyball, packing meals for the Northeast Iowa Food Bank and building homes for Habitat For Humanity Women’s Build.

Adam Walker went from being a secondary option for Seminole High to becoming the primary offensive playmaker for a team that reached the boys water polo state semifinals for a second straight season.
The junior had 96 goals — a 33 percent increase over his sophomore season — including a pair of 8-goal games. Walker scored eight in a regular season win over Oviedo and repeated that feat against Lake Mary in the District 2 final.
“Adam is the player we cannot lose in a match,” said Seminoles coach Ryan Ackerson.
Walker earned the 2025 Sentinel Varsity Boys Water Polo Player of the Year honor.
In addition to his goal scoring, Walker had 52 assists, 47 steals and 36 ejections drawn.
“He’s so well-rounded in comparison to the rest of the team,” Ackerson said. “He’s the one guy who can do everything in the pool. His defense is just as good as his offense.”
Walker also made a concerted effort to be more of a leader, but still humble.
“It wasn’t just the work I put into being better, it was the effort from the team that allowed me to perform to the best of my ability,” he said. “I try to make sure my teammates and I do what it takes to win every time we are in the pool.”
Walker had one more year to get even better as he contemplates his future after high school.
“Not sure if I will play water polo in college, but my mind is open,” he said. “I would like to stay in Florida.”
