Clash at Don Haskins Center: UTEP Miners Prepare to Host Sul Ross State Lobos

As the UTEP Miners gear up to face the Sul Ross State Lobos at the Don Haskins Center, fans are anticipating an exciting matchup. The Miners have shown a promising trend in their recent games, with a notable victory over the New Mexico State Aggies where they scored 67 points against their opponent's 64. This win was characterized by a solid two-point shooting performance, hitting 51 percent from inside the arc and securing an equal number of total rebounds as their opponents at 35.

Despite this win, consistency remains a challenge for the Miners. In their game against the Texas Longhorns, they fell short with only 57 points compared to Texas' 72. The team struggled from beyond the arc and from free-throw line in that game but managed to maintain decent offensive rebounding with ten boards.

The upcoming game presents an opportunity for UTEP to capitalize on their home-court advantage at Don Haskins Center—a venue known for its vibrant atmosphere and supportive crowd. With recent performances showing strengths in two-point field goals and points in paint, it's expected that these areas will be key focuses for them.

Defensively, there is room for improvement as turnovers have been a concern; however, if they can leverage their assist-to-turnover ratio which stood out positively against New Mexico State Aggies (0.81), it could be pivotal in controlling the game pace against Sul Ross State Lobos.

Fans should look forward to seeing how UTEP harnesses its potential on both ends of the court while aiming to reduce turnovers and improve free-throw accuracy which has been below par recently.

The match is scheduled on November 16th at Don Haskins Center in El Paso, TX. Fans can catch all action live on CUSA TV as both teams take center stage aiming for victory.
