For Lobos, no short cuts as season begins
The stage will be set Wednesday night in the Pit.
The lights will be bright and the focus will be back on the Lobo basketball team for its regular-season opener against visiting Florida Atlantic University.
And if Rio Rancho High graduate and third-year Lobo guard Clay Patterson isn’t looking his best, don’t blame K.J. Jenkins.
“I think I’ve got everybody except Clay,” said Jenkins, a new Lobos guard who also has served since his arrival in Albuquerque this summer as the team’s barber. “I don’t know why he don’t like me.”
Jenkins, who cuts his own hair, said he’s pretty sure he’s cut every teammate’s hair, except Patterson’s, at least once since he’s been at UNM.
