The UTEP football program is suspending activities following positive COVID-19 tests on the team. The Miners’ game against Rice this past weekend was canceled after multiple players tested positive on Saturday, and now this weekend’s matchup against Southern Miss is canceled as well.
Athletic Director Jim Senter said a decision will be made on the rest of the season following the next round of tests. UTEP currently has one more game scheduled, a December Twelfth meeting at home against North Texas.
