In the team’s inaugural season, the UTEP beach volleyball team (0-4) headed to the University of Arizona to take part in the Cactus Classic for opening weekend, Feb. 24 and Feb. 25.
The Miners tried their best to defeat the Pacific-12 Conference foes, but ultimately fell in the end to the University of Oregon (1-3, 0-1 Pacific-12 Conference), Arizona State University (ASU) (3-1,1-0 PAC-12), No. 18 The University of Arizona (4-0) and Colorado Mesa University (1-3).
Since its announcement last spring, this is the first time anyone gets to see the Miners beach volleyball team in action.
