The Lady Eagles have now won five of their last six games after their 73-48 win over The University of Texas-San Antonio at Reed Green Coliseum on Feb. 11.
“To be able to get a win against UTEP, a team that is very good [and] has a rich tradition in being successful, is a huge win for this Lady Eagle basketball team and we’re proud of them,” said Head Coach Joye-Lee McNelis.
The Lady Eagles came out aggressive by using the full-court press early in the first quarter. UTEP totaled 26 turnovers by the end of the night, with the Lady Eagles scoring 23 points off of those turnovers.
