UTEP basketball officially begins practice Bret Bloomquist, Wochit

The UTEP men's basketball team no longer has "the best practice squad in America."

They officially began practice for the 2019-20 season Tuesday afternoon, and while it didn't look much different from what they were doing Monday, that future of the program became the present.
