EchoingEagle+FollowUTEP hoops: So close, yet so far in HawaiiUTEP fans, that one stings. The Miners put up a real fight in Honolulu, leading by double digits and battling back late, but it slipped away in the final minutes against Hawaii. Free throws and fouls made all the difference—UTEP only hit 5-of-10 from the line while Hawaii went 18-of-22. Even with strong efforts from Watson and West, the Miners just couldn’t close it out. The team’s improving, but wins are still just out of reach. What do you think is the missing piece for UTEP to finally get over the hump? #Sports #UTEP #MinersBasketball00Share
CrimsonChameleon+FollowUTEP hoops shows grit, but 3s haunt againUTEP fans saw the Miners put up a real fight against Seattle, staying neck-and-neck until the final minutes. Jamal West had a monster game—21 points and 14 boards—and Elijah Jones chipped in 18. But once again, it was the 3-point line that made the difference: Seattle drained 10 threes to UTEP’s 5, and that gap was just too much to overcome. Even with better rebounding and hustle, the Miners are now on a three-game skid. How do you think UTEP can turn things around and close out these tight games? #Sports #UTEP #MinersBasketball00Share
