'UTEP never left my heart': Keitha Adams makes return to El Paso
Keitha Adams was in a happy place Wednesday afternoon at the new Gordon Family Courtside Club inside the Don Haskins Center.
After being named the UTEP women's basketball coach for the second time in her career, Adams was formally introduced in front of family, friends, UTEP basketball players, administrators and supporters of the program.
"The opportunity to comeback really excited me," Adams said. "UTEP and El Paso never left my heart."
After six years in an almost-hometown school at Wichita State, Adams replaces Kevin Baker who surprisingly resigned after the Miners' best season in his six years, which included a WNIT appearance.
