Tamara Seda recorded a double double with 18 points, and 15 rebounds, while Sparkle Taylor added 21 points for the Miners who rolled over Houston Baptist 75-45 to snap their losing slide.
UTEP shot just 38.8 percent from the field in the game, but Seda collected eight of UTEP’s 18 offensive rebounds leading to 12 second chance points, as HBU did not have an answer for the talented 6’4 post.
The Miners jumped out to a 6-1 lead early on, and won the first quarter 15-11, then Seda and Taylor took over to give UTEP a halftime cushion.
