The Utep Men got a big win last night vs. the Stephen F Austin Lumberjacks 61-52. The Lumberjacks slowed the Miners down all night and UTEP just never seemed to be able to get on track. Missed layups, jump shots, and free throws kept the Lumberjacks in the game the whole night.The Miners woke up (just a little) after the half and finally pulled away from SFA. Utep has got to play a lot better on both ends of the floor if they are going to knock off the #24 ranked BYU Cougars on Thursday.
The Miner alumni pep band had fun all night heckling the female referee during the women's game. The referee had to endure calls of "SHARON" all night long because she looked a little like the wife of Ozzy Osbourne.
Just a thought: The people in charge of the half-time entertainment should have the ball boy playing against other top mascots in a game of one one one during half-time. The kid made halftime entertaining with his nice skills against Paydirt. The Miners might want to start recruiting this kid now.
