Johnson Center

The 2007 season marks the eighth straight season of Lobo volleyball in the Johnson Center. A highlight this year, The mtn. will televise the Sept. 28 match against TCU. The weekend of Sept. 28 will also mark the Golden Jubilee of the Johnson Center.

The Lobo faithful have piled into Johnson, rooting for the program from its inception until 1996, when they upgraded to University Arena. From 1996 to 1999, the Lobos averaged 1,026 people per game. During the first five full seasons back in Johnson, the Lobos averaged 430 people. In 2005, those numbers skyrocketed, increasing season attendance by over 2,220 to its greatest since the days in University Arena. The highlight of the 2006 season was on Senior Night, Nov. 10th. The Lobos defeated the TCU Horned Frogs, 3-0, during the first Lobo volleyball match to ever be televised from Johnson Center.

In the Johnson Center, the Lobos have exclusive access to the Lobo Team Room. This room features work areas and computers to study, a leather couch for a little relaxation and numerous awards and plaques that decorated the walls to remind the team of its successful past. Outside the team room, UNM's four All-Americans are honors as their jerseys are showcased. Across the hall is the Lobo Alumni Wall, which features autographs from former players.

Season and single-game packages are available by contacting the UNM Athletics Ticket Office at (505) 925-LOBO (5626).
