The UTEP women's basketball team championship season netted them three of Conference USA's six individual awards, as Starr Breedlove was named the league's newcomer of the year, Sparkle Taylor was named sixth player of the year and Keitha Adams claimed her third coach of the year honor.
Adams becomes the first coach in C-USA women’s basketball history to secure the honor three times, as she also won it in the other championship years (2008 and '12).
UTEP is turning the sixth player award into a franchise. Jenzel Nash won it in 2014 and Gloria Brown won it back-to-back in 2011 and '12.
