A lot of grit, a lot of Jazion Jackson and a little luck added up to a 79-78 overtime victory for the UTEP women's basketball team at Florida Atlantic to earn a split of the Miami-area road trip.
The Owls had a chance to tie it at the line when UTEP's Erin Wilson, making her first start of the year in place of N'Yah Boyd, fouled Joiya Maddox on a 3-point attempt with 3 seconds remaining in overtime, but Maddox missed the first free throw before making the last two for the final points.
UTEP improved to 6-3 in Conference USA and 13-5 overall.
