Junior guard Souley Boum has had an enormous impact on the court in his three years playing for UTEP. Boum has been a key player in many of the Miners’ big victories this season.
One of the many games in which he had an impact was against the third-ranked team in Conference-USA, Louisiana Tech University. Boum was able to change the game with a steal and layup that eventually led to the win.
This season, Boum has been averaging 19 points per game, and four rebounds per game. Boum had struggled early in the year in shooting consistent 3-pointers and scoring in general asthere were games where Boum shot a low 28% from the 3-point line.
