After only one season at UTEP, assistant coach Butch Pierre is heading to Wichita State to join Isaac Brown's staff, first reported by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

The UTEP basketball managers, known as "The Golding Boys," are participating in a nationwide voting competition on Twitter, the 2022 Manager Games Championships.

In a swift, resounding fashion, the Miners built a strong lead and never looked back en route to their round one win in the second round of the Conference USA Tournament, beating Old Dominion, 74-64.

The UTEP women's basketball season came to an abrupt finish Tuesday afternoon in a 58-57 overtime loss to UTSA in the first round of the Conference USA Tournament.

On Monday, the league announced Souley Boum (2nd Team) and Jamal Bieniemy (3rd Team) were named to the All C-USA list. On the women's basketball side, Katia Gallegos (2nd Team) and Destiny Thurman (honorable mention) were recognized by league today with an all-conference honor.

One of our very own Miners is a finalist to be inducted into this year's NBA Hall of Fame.

The Edmonton Elks signed former Miner Kai Locksley and linebacker Matthew Thomas on Wednesday, per the football team.

I bet many years ago Steve-O had tons of celebrities and musicians Googling what his t-shirt was at a big event in Los Angeles years ago.

Former UTEP standout football player and ex-NFL safety Quintin Demps launched his own non-profit back in October to give back to at-risk and underserved youth in El Paso.

The squad was without senior All Conference shooting guard Souley Boum and Christian Agnew, who are both out due to COVID-19 protocols.

For the first time in nearly two years, the Battle of I-10 will tip-off Saturday in an early season battle between the Miners (1-0) and Aggies (1-0).

Everyone is getting excited because this is a conference game and it is against the University of Texas at San Antonio.
