Men’s Basketball: Owls take down UTEP 67-59 on the road

The Owls’ winning streak now sits at eighteen consecutive games—the second longest active winning streak in the NCAA.

The #24 FAU Owls (19-1, 9-0 C-USA) continued their dominance in conference play with a 67-59 victory over the University of Texas at El Paso Miners (UTEP)(11-9, 4-5 C-USA) Saturday night at the Don Haskins Center in El Paso, Texas.

“Our guys can walk into any environment and match the other team’s toughness, energy and determination,” said head coach Dusty May after finishing their three-game road trip with their winning streak intact.

FAU started the first half strong with a 12-point scoring run in the first six minutes.
