Coach Keitha Adams and her staff will look to continue their run as a top team in Conference USA. The Miners are coming off back to back 20 win seasons, and have won 20 or more in four of the last seven.
This slate certainly sets up well for them to continue that trend as well, as the only play one true road game in all of 2013. The Miners open up with six straight at home, and aside from a short trip to Las Cruces, don't leave the area until the Puerto Rico Classic in late December.
Good luck to the Miners in their upcoming season. Make sure to stay tuned to MinerRush for more on UTEP Women's basketball, as well as all things Miners sports.
