UTEP Football: El Paso running back Josh Fields officially visits UTEP

An important local piece among UTEP’s highly targeted 2017 prospects headed west on I-10 for his official visit to UTEP.

Americas High running back Josh Fields ran for 2,477 yards, and 26 touchdowns this past season, and has been a high priority target for Sean Kugler since he was offered as a sophomore.

He has unofficially visited UTEP a number of times, but finally gets the all-important one-on-one time with UTEP coaches, and hopefully his future teammates.

Fields has offers from New Mexico, Air Force, Louisiana-Monroe and was a first team AP all-state selection in Class 6A and was a among the state’s leading rushers.
