Volcano Vista graduate Cody Moon, the New Mexico Lobos’ leading tackler in 2022 and a second-team All-Mountain West Conference linebacker, has entered the NCAA’s transfer portal.
Moon entered the UNM program as a walk-on in 2020, redshirted that year and played the past two seasons but has three years of eligibility remaining due to COVID-19 provisions.
He was UNM’s nominee for the Burlsworth Trophy, presented annually to a former walk-on judged most outstanding in a given season. Moon also was UNM’s Burlsworth nominee in 2021.
Moon is the 11th member of the 2022 UNM team known to have entered the transfer portal and the fourth defensive starter to do so, preceded by freshman All-America safety A.
