How can UTEP basketball beat Middle Tennessee? Balanced scoring, stronger rebounds

FRISCO — In a tournament where the UTEP men's basketball team won its first game since 2017, led by first-year coach Joe Golding who hasn't lost in a Division I conference tournament, the Miners look for their biggest win in his era when they take on top-seeded Middle Tennessee on Thursday.

The 7 p.m. Mountain time tip in the quarterfinals of the Conference USA championships gives the winner the chance to play UAB or Florida Atlantic in the semifinals.

The game will be streamed on Stadium and also broadcast on 600 ESPN El Paso and the UTEP Miners' app.
