UTEP working to improve offense

The UTEP women's basketball team is always going to preach defense, and at this point it's carried them to a 14-1 record.

The key to maintaining that is going to be improving on offense, particularly against zones that they are going to see a lot of down the stretch.

The Miners were able to hold off UTSA Sunday despite shooting 35 percent from the field and making just 3-of-21 3-pointers, which dropped them to last in Conference USA in 3-point percentage. They also turned the ball over 16 times, which is about their average. Four of those came on the first five possessions of the second quarter.
