A must-win.

New Mexico State head coach Chris Jans said it.

After the Aggies capitulated to George Mason in the championship game of the Cayman Island Classic, he knew it.

NMSU had to beat the UTEP Miners.

Round two of the Battle of I-10 will tipoff on Tuesday at the Pan American Center, as the undefeated Miners (5-0) will face off against the Aggies (4-4).

There was a lot to digest following the UTEP Miners 65-50 win over the NMSU Aggies last night at the Don Haskins Center.

Or call the 65-50 win over New Mexico State in the Battle of I-10 a pivotal moment for the UTEP men's basketball program.

Rodney Terry landed his fourth Division One transfer after former Fresno State power forward Bryson Williams announced he was signing with UTEP.

The UTEP men's basketball team is preparing for their annual summer youth camps but they are not finished with finalizing their roster for the upcoming season.

Anthony Tarke became the fifth player to sign with UTEP basketball and adding Bryson Williams would make the Miners an instant force for the 2019-2020 season.
