Miners win first C-USA Tournament game in five years.

The UTEP men’s basketball team (19-12, 12-7 Conference-USA) got their first conference win since 2016 against the University of Old Dominion (13-12, 9-9 C-USA) at the Ford Center Wednesday evening. The Miners dominated on the glass from the start of the game, all the way to the final whistle in this wire-to-wire 74-64 victory.

“Credit and respect to Old Dominion. I’m just really happy for our players” Head Coach Joe Golding said. “We’ve been through a lot this year and we’ve checked the box on a lot of things. It’s been a long time since UTEP has won in the conference tournament and obviously never in Frisco.
