Faces off the field: UTEP volleyball's Hande Yetis
UTEP volleyball's Hande Yetis arrived in El Paso three years ago from her native Izmir, Turkey just as the Miners were starting to get good.
She's made herself a big part of that as a setter and floor leader, where she's second on the team in assists for a squad that finished third in Conference USA and starts playing in the league tournament Friday.
An engineering major, Yetis was named to the C-USA all-academic volleyball team.
How is the team playing as the postseason arrives?
We have a young team, I'm very happy with where we are right now. We're going to go to the championship and we're going to bring a trophy back to El Paso.
