UTEP women charge home to earn big win against North Texas, 62-52

Just in time to set up the second half of the season, the UTEP women's basketball team rediscovered its sense of the moment and came away with its biggest win in three years.

UTEP broke out of a 50-50 tie in the final 4:00 against an elite North Texas team, closing the game on a dramatic 12-2 run for a 62-52 victory that snapped their three-game losing streak and the Mean Green's five-game Conference USA winning streak.

A strange five-point possession, back-to-back 3-pointers after starting the game 1-of-13 from beyond the arc, and a string of defensive stops enabled the Miners to level their C-USA record at 3-3.
