For the first time in nine years, UTEP men's basketball has sold out the Don Haskins Center in anticipation for the Battle of I-10 matchup against NM State on Saturday.
If the UTEP men's basketball team will turn around their season in CUSA play, they will need much better shooting and leaders to emerge on and off the court.
On Saturday, the Miners will have a chance for their best win of the year as they face off against 24th ranked Florida Atlantic in a C-USA showdown that tips off at 7 p.m.
Stephen F. Austin forward Calvin Solomon will be wearing the Orange and Blue next year, as the transfer announced via social media he has committed to play for the Miners in the upcoming 2022-23 college basketball season.
