NMMI Sports Press PLANO, Texas — Saturday’s Region V tennis match between the Lady Broncos and North Central Texas College looked almost exactly like Friday’s match between NMMI and Collin College, with one big exception. Saturday, the Lions took a 5-4 victory over the Institute after NMMI battled back to a 4-4 tie. “It’s exactly…
Karen Boehler NMMI Sports Press ARTESIA — NMMI runners waited until late into the Artesia Invitational track meet to make their mark, but when they did, they did it with a vengeance.

Karen Boehler NMMI Sports Press For all but one inning of their doubleheader opener vs. Ruidoso Tuesday, the Colts looked like an amazing baseball team.

NMMI Sports Press ABILENE, Texas — There will be no post-season play for the Bronco golf team this year, but they played some of their best golf of the season Monday and Tuesday at the NJCAA District 2 Championship at the par-70, 6,564-yard Diamondback Golf Club in Abilene. Playing on a jerry-rigged course of nine…
Karen Boehler NMMI Sports Press It was another good day for the Colt golf team, especially junior Sergio Amieiro, who took the individual title at the Roswell Spring Classic with a two-day 65-73—138. Day 2 of the 36-hole tournament wasn’t quite as special for Amieiro — he shot a one-over par 73 and had to…
NMMI Sports Press The five freshmen of the Bronco golf team will be back at NMMI next year as sophomores. Friday, all five re-upped with the Institute, and the reason has as much to do with academics as athletics. “NMMI is top-rated junior colleges in academics, and we have a great coach,” said Jin Ho…
NMMI Sports Press ABILENE, Texas — Maybe all it take is a little wet weather for the Bronco golfers to shoot well. “Little” wet weather is really an understatement, as the Diamondback Golf Club in Abilene, Texas, got hammered by the north end of a rainstorm that dropped more than a foot of water on…
