If NMSU and UTEP both win their first round games i imagine they'll bring some fans to Memorial the 2nd round

UTEP wins! They will be playing at 2:30 tomorrow.

UTEP wins! They will be playing at 2:30 tomorrow.

Yep, in straight sets. It got a little scary there in the third set, but they got it done. Now to beat the NMSU-SHSU winner.

Good game by the ladies tonight. They showed their jitters with the early service errors in the first set and managed to push back in the third against a hellbent Liberty team. Good to see them reminded that the teams are playing for their playoff dreams.

Hoping it’s SHSU but I’m not holding my breath.

 

[utep2step]

Congratulations!!

 

[utep1966]

NMSU won. It is good for the borderland that UTEP or NMSU will be in the Championship Game.

I logged on here to say that we were playing Sam Houston today, as that is what it says on the UTEP Athletics website. Then I saw this and looked further, and yes, were are playing NMSU today. Let me say the I don't care in this case what's good for the Borderland, I care about what's good for UTEP, which would be beating (likely) WKU in the finals to advance to the NCAA Tournament.

You can care for both. Obviously every person on here wants UTEP to win.

It's good for the borderland that UTEP or NMSU will be in the championship game. It's good because the championship game will have fans in the stands.

 

[MinerManiac]

After winning the 1st set we're getting slaughtered in the 2nd. Hopefully we can regroup and win the 3rd and 4th sets.

 

[utep1966]

Crowd is thin, but I'm not surprised. It's a Saturday afternoon and tickets are $25.

Championship Game tickets are $15. Hopefully UTEP can win to get the sellout tomorrow!

 

[MinerManiac]

The 3rd set has started out much better. Hopefully the Miners have their major back

 

[utep1966]

UTEP is cruising and is up 14-6 in the third set.

 

[MinerManiac]

Miners win the 3rd set. One more to go

 

[utep1966]

Tied 15-15!

 

[MinerManiac]

Super tight 4th set, now 21-21. Let's finish them off Miners.

 

[MinerManiac]

Now down 23-21. Not looking good

 

[utep1966]

Damn, on to the 5th set.

 

[MinerManiac]

Heading to a 5th set, I won't be able to watch. Come on, Miners!

 

[utep1966]

NMSU won.

 

[Sports Opinion]

NMSU won.

UTEP won.

 

[MinerManiac]

That really sucks. With us easily sweeping the Aggies this year, and hosting the Tournament, I thought that for sure we would play in the finals, and had a great shot of making the NCAA Tournament. Unfortunately it's not going to happen. 😮‍💨

 

[utep1966]

UTEP won

Sadly, UTEP lost.

 

[MinerManiac]

UTEP won.

I wish, but they didn't.

 

[Sports Opinion]

I wish, but they didn't.

No, no, that can’t be, nooo, it’s not possible, I’m melting nooooooou

 

[picks up]

Death, Taxes, and UTEP choking. That was rough.

 

[FarWestTexas]

In the clurb, we all fam.

 

[NeptunianEmp]

As the resident Aggie fan I have to say ggez. I only wish this was the finals game.

 

[Sports Opinion]

Death, Taxes, and UTEP choking. That was rough.

That’s really how good they are

Death, Taxes, and UTEP choking. That was rough.

Be sure to come out and support the team when they host in the WVXNBJAKL tournament next week! $40 tickets!

They won’t get invited because they didn’t reach the CUSA finals. Most likely the invitation will be extended to NMSU

Tickets aren't $40. They sold out most games last year.

They will get invited to the NIVC, if they don't get an at large bid.

 

[Sports Opinion]

An at large bid to the NCAA or the NIVC ?

 

[utep1966]

An at large bid to the NCAA or the NIVC ?

NCAA

They are guaranteed to be playing postseason volleyball.

I know the girl that served that ball. Rilen Garcia. She is from Santa Teresa

I feel bad for the UTEP women’s volleyball team. They swept the aggies during the regular season, but lost to them in CUSA tournament play. I remember Coach Haskins saying it was hard to beat a team three times during the sane season.
