2012-2013 UTEP Basketball Schedule Taking Shape

+

The 2012-13 UTEP basketball schedule is still far from complete, but UTEP athletics has released a quick piece discussing how it's all coming together. The slate is quickly becoming one of the tougher ones we've seen in years, perhaps decades. The Miners will take on both UNLV and Oregon in the Don, as well New Mexico State in their regular home and home series. The Miners are currently in negotiations to get a home game against Oral Roberts, and will also take part in November's Old Spice Classic in Orlando. That tournament features Clemson, Davidson, Gonzaga, Marist, Oklahoma, UTEP, Vanderbilt, and West Virginia. CTF did comment on the struggles of getting quality opponents into the Sun Bowl tournament, and did also mention that he expected to field some quality teams. Regardless of who ends up in that tourney, the 2012-13 Miners will certainly have a tough task ahead of them. Check back for more scheduling updates in the coming months.
