Now that I have covered a few things regarding the Lion Women’s Basketball team, it is time for us to look at our Men’s Program. Let’s get to it.

/Greetings, Lion fans, it has been a very long time since we’ve had a game like yesterday. Ordinarily, we’d be watching the D2 Football playoff selection show, and hoping for a home game, or at least a favorable seeding. Unfortunately, 2021 was not to be, and the Lions found themselves playing out the regular season,…
Cedric Wilcox picks up an Eastern New Mexico fumble, returns it 72 yards, and the Lions lead, 7-0, with 12:18 left in the first.

Greetings, Lion fans, and Brian and I wish that there were more to talk about., like a final regular season tune up, and getting ready for a playoff berth. Sadly, though, after the debacle in San Angelo last Saturday, all that’s left is a final regular season face off against an improving Eastern New Mexico…
I think it is fair to say that everyone associated with Lion football, from the coaches, players, fans, and students are all disappointed in how this season has gone. Last Saturday’s loss….the worst in the Bailiff era, erased any doubt about the Lions making the playoffs. They had been hanging by a thread for weeks,…
Greetings, Lion fans, and I wish there were better news to report, but there just isn’t. There aren’t many highlights in a 30-3 loss in which there seemed to be absolutely no effort by anyone on the Lions sideline this evening, but there are a couple of highlights. Mitchell McGarry-The redshirt freshman was brilliant in…
I have far more questions than thoughts. Lions are assured now not to make the playoffs.
Well, it was nice while it lasted.
