UTEP women’s basketball comes up short against Utah State

After trailing most of the game, the UTEP Miners came up short in the final seconds against the Utah State Aggies 68-65 on the road.

Starting the season 3-0 with two overtime wins over New Mexico State and a close in over Incarnate Word, the Miners, have gained a reputation for pulling out close games down the stretch in this young season.

On Sunday that streak ended as the Miners were able to come back from an 11-point deficit in the third quarter and take a one-point lead with a minute left in the game. Unfortunately, the Miners could not pull out another comeback win as the team lost a close game.
