Conference USA basketball

In a swift, resounding fashion, the Miners built a strong lead and never looked back en route to their round one win in the second round of the Conference USA Tournament, beating Old Dominion, 74-64.

On Monday, the league announced Souley Boum (2nd Team) and Jamal Bieniemy (3rd Team) were named to the All C-USA list. On the women's basketball side, Katia Gallegos (2nd Team) and Destiny Thurman (honorable mention) were recognized by league today with an all-conference honor.

The final week of the C-USA basketball regular season is upon us as the UTEP men's basketball team looks to turn the page from their loss to UAB (69-66).

For the first time in 18 years, UTEP went to LA Tech and upset the Bulldogs on their home floor in a back-and-forth 63-60 finish that featured 14 lead changes and eight ties.

UTEP (12-8, 5-3 C-USA) has now won four straight games heading into another home matchup against Florida International on Saturday.

Can the UTEP men's basketball team maintain the steak going into a huge week at home against two C-USA schools from Florida?

The UTEP men's basketball team completed the sweep against travel partner UTSA in a tight 59-54 battle on Sunday.

The Miners men's basketball team overcame an 11-point halftime deficit to rally back and beat UTSA, 69-64, at the Haskins Center on Thursday night.

Their schedule softens during the upcoming four-game stretch after playing tougher opponents through the first five games of C-USA play.

The Miners went on to out-score Old Dominion 15-7 in overtime, including a 5-0 run in the first three minutes, to steal the road win, 78-70
