A UTEP men's basketball team facing its first adversity of the season returns to the Don Haskins Center, where it is undefeated this year, to take on another team hungry for a win, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.

After a 5-0 start the Miners are now 5-2 after a blowout loss to Loyola Marymount they don't feel good about. The Islanders, who won a First Four NCAA tournament game last year, are 2-4 under first-year head coach Jim Shaw.
