After a 77-51 victory in their season opener against Alcorn State, the UTEP women’s basketball team looks like they will be a solid team with tremendous upside. With two home games against Cal State Bakersfield (2-0) and rival New Mexico State (2-0) this week for the Miners, here are a few highlights to mention, and improvements they will need to make in their next two outings.

Returning letters and junior forward international standouts in Zuzanna Puc and Katarina Zec were crucial in UTEP’s victory against the Lady Braves.
Puc was the leading scorer for UTEP with 18 points and second-leading rebounder with seven.
