Eli Sanders, Devon Dampier lead New Mexico to 21-16 victory over San Diego State
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Eli Sanders had two long touchdown runs in the first quarter and Devon Dampier had a go-ahead touchdown pass in the fourth to lead New Mexico to a 21-16 victory over San Diego State on Friday night.
Sanders scored on a 51-yard run to cap a four-play 99-yard drive the second time New Mexico (4-6, 3-3 Mountain West Conference) had the ball. He raced 68 yards for a touchdown on the Lobos’ second play from scrimmage on their second possession for a 14-3 lead after one quarter.
San Diego State (3-6, 2-2) scored 13 unanswered points to take a 16-14 lead into the final quarter, but Dampier found Ryan Davis for an 8-yard touchdown with 13:07 left to play and the Lobos held on for the victory.
Sanders carried 16 times for 173 yards for the Lobos. Dampier completed 16 of 24 passes for 175 yards and rushed 16 times for 120 more.
Marquez Cooper totaled 123 yards on 35 carries for the Aztecs. O’Neil had 195 yards on 26-for-41 passing.
Gabriel Plascencia’s second field goal and Danny O’Neil’s 5-yard touchdown toss to Cooper pulled San Diego State within 14-13 at halftime.
The Aztecs moved in front 16-14 after three quarters when Plascencia ended a 16-play, 80-yard drive with a 28-yard field goal with 1:39 remaining.
New Mexico had lost nine in a row to the Aztecs coming in.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife rereleased a wolf into Grand County this week after it had traveled into New Mexico, according to a news release.
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish captured gray wolf 2403 and returned the animal to Colorado.
Colorado wildlife officials decided to release the wolf in Grand County yesterday because of the proximity to “an unpaired female gray wolf,” nearby prey populations and distance from livestock, according to the release.
“Gray wolf 2403 has been returned to Colorado and released in a location where it can best contribute to CPW’s efforts to establish a self-sustaining wolf population while concurrently attempting to minimize potential wolf-related livestock conflicts,” said acting director of CPW Laura Clellan, according to the release.
The wolf was once a member of the Copper Creek pack but departed from it this fall.
A memorandum of understanding between Colorado and Arizona, New Mexico and Utah requires that any gray wolves that leave Colorado and enter those states be returned. That was created in part to maintain the integrity of a Mexican wolf recovery program.
“We recognized during the planning process that we would need to have consideration and plans to protect the genetic integrity of the Mexican wolf recovery program, while also establishing a gray wolf population in Colorado,” said CPW’s Wolf Conservation Program Manager Eric Odell, according to the release.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – A judge sentenced a New Mexico man to nearly 20 years in prison for distributing meth and having guns in his possession to use while doing so.
Court records indicate 43-year-old David Amaya sold meth from a trailer on his parents’ property in Anthony throughout July and August 2024. Agents executed a search warrant Aug. 22 and found 1.18 kilograms of meth, two firearms and ammunition in the trailer and a makeshift bathroom.
Amaya pleaded guilty to possession of meth with intent to distribute it. A judge sentenced him to 235 months in prison.
Once he is out, Amaya will face five years of supervised release.
The FBI’s Albuquerque Field Office and the Las Cruces Metro Narcotics Task Force investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Williams prosecuted it.
