When you're going through hell, keep going.

That can be a motto for the UTEP women Thursday morning against Old Dominion as they travel two time zones away looking to pull out of their tailspin against another red-hot team near the top of Conference USA that's favored to beat them.

The Monarchs have won four straight league games to get to 13-5 overall, and while the Miners have lost four straight, they have managed to hang together through the adversity.
