The UTEP volleyball team took home a second-place title in the National Invitational Volleyball Championship in December, gaining more recognition in the world of athletics at UTEP. In February, the team was presented to UTEP fans at a basketball game. What one of the team members, Alyssa Sianez, did not know was that she was about to be presented with a $12,500 scholarship. Her teammates stood behind her with only smiles across their faces, knowing what was about to happen.
