El Paso's Aaron Jones is at it again - giving back to his hometown in one of the coolest ways possible.

It's been coined the "Dance in the Don" – thanks to Rachel Phillips of KVIA – as the Chapin Huskies and Parkland Matadors prepare for a Class 5A regional quarterfinals basketball matchup at the Don Haskins Center.

It could end up being the biggest basketball game inside the Don Haskins Center this season -- and it does not involve a UTEP Miners team.

The Don Haskins Center has been without heat over the last week and the UTEP men's basketball team has been cold as well, losing sic of their last seven games.

Despite the near capacity crowd to watch the Miners defeat to Aggies, how will fans support UTEP as they host five smaller programs over the next three weeks?

The announced crowd of 6,100 felt more than ten thousand UTEP fans were at the Don Haskins Center rooting on the Miners against UAB last Saturday night.

Marshall (9-16, 2-10 C-USA) had lost 13 of their last 14 games going into the game, but the Thundering Herd looked like the better team for the majority of the contest and beat the Miners handily at the Haskins Center, 88-79.

The UTEP men's basketball squad (14-9, 7-4 C-USA) will prepare for their next home matchup against Marshall on Super Bowl Sunday, with a 1 p.m. tipoff at the Haskins Center.
