UTEP gets statement win over Middle Tennessee

UTEP keeps their home winning streak alive as they defeat Conference’s USA Middle Tennessee 84-73. The Miners improve to 12-1 and win their fourth conference game in a row.

The Miners won this game since the first quarter when the Miners quickly got off on a run. The Miners were able to hold on in the first half as they went to the half time with a 15-point lead.

“Our kids came in and really performed it and followed the plan, really proud of them, winning the boards was the key,” Coach Keitha Adams said.

The Miners biggest lead of the night came in the 3rd quarter, in which they led by 17 in part to their fast paced offense that capitalized off of the fast break.
