State Title Potential Boys & Girls Mescalero Apache High Basketball Teams on a role undefeated 4-0 Season so far!

Last year the Mescalero Apache Lady Chiefs got their first taste at a state crown as they upended top-seed Peñasco by a 69-54 count. It appears the Lacy Chiefs and maybe also the Boys, are hungry for a title again this year. While its an odd year post Covid-19, with abridged schedules and no fans in the stadiums this year could indeed be a year to remember for the Apache Chiefs Boys and Girls Teams. Both are now 4 and 0 for the season and are certainly making an impression on all they compete against. Tonight's winning results confirm this is no fluke.

4-10-2021 Today's positive affirmation...“Never look down on someone…unless you are helping to pull them up.”

4-10-2021 Today's positive affirmation...“Never look down on someone…unless you are helping to pull them up.” Science and real-world experience tell us that it actually takes a minimum of 28 days to begin to form a habit, but on average its really between 60 to 90 days. For most of us 90 days is a much more effective and realistic timeframe to incorporate a new behavior into our life, thus 90 Days To A Glass Half Full Lifestyle.

History- The 1920's The Rise of High School Athletics Associations, the founding of the New Mexico Athletics Association & Alamogordo's 1st State Winners

This article continues our series with excerpts and research from our book series on the history of New Mexico High School Athletics centered around Alamogordo High School from 1912 forward. The very first state medal winner in 1917 for an athlete from Alamogordo High School was named Wohlenberg who scored a 5 foot 7.75 inches and New Mexico State Medalist in High Jump...By 1916, the United States was starting to educate its children for more years than most other countries, even while admitting a surge of immigrants. The ruling elite feared that all this schooling would make Anglo-Saxon boys soft and weak, in contrast to their brawny, newly immigrated peers. Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr. warned that cities were being overrun with “stiff-jointed, soft-muscled, paste-complexioned youth.”...Sports, the thinking went, would both protect boys’ masculinity and distract them from vices like gambling and prostitution. “Muscular Christianity,” fashionable during the Victorian era, prescribed sports as a sort of moral vaccine against the tumult of rapid economic growth.

Motivational Thoughts for New Mexicans and Beyond - The Journey Toward Positivity...

The Journey toward positivity. Don't expect everyone to understand your journey, especially if they have never walled in your path. Learn, grow and find your own POWER of the POSSIBLE with each New Day... Our lives are a journey. The journey we take can lead to periods of great joy and amazing experiences. A life lived in full also can lead us onto pathways and encounters that are not pleasant and can lead to memories that can be painful and may take one into darkness and despair. A life in full follows a variety of paths. How we react to those circumstances both joyous and painful is what defines our character and our legacy. Our legacy is our footprint on the pathway of life imprinted for future generations.
