EL PASO, Texas - As the official home of the UTEP Miners, ABC-7 is committed to bringing you complete coverage of every UTEP sport.

This week, ABC-7's Adrian Ochoa speaks with UTEP women's golf coach, Jere Pelletier.

Pelletier enters his 26th season as the coach of the women's golf team at UTEP.

The Miners have yet to take part in a tournament this season.

Their first scheduled tournament that was supposed to take place in El Paso was cancelled due to a snowstorm that rolled in on February 13.

The tournament hosted by Grand Canyon University is set to take place March 1-2.
