Notes: Lucero, Busey catches highlight UTEP's second practice

UTEP had its second and final practice Wednesday before the team gets shoulder pads — and it was a morning of give-and-take between the offense and defense.

“It was a good practice,” coach Sean Kugler said. Tight end “David Lucero keeps making plays; (receiver Alan) Busey had a nice day; (quarterback) Ryan Metz had a strong day. Dante Lovilotte and Nik Needham had interceptions. (Tuesday) we got hands on balls but didn’t intercept them. There is a lot of progress.”

Kugler also likes his team’s communication.

“One thing I enjoyed seeing was players correcting players,” he said.
