He is the state runner-up in the 4A pole vault

Clint’s Matthew Portillo has a chance at a medal after this clearance at pr 15-3

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

He has a new pr at 15-9, a remarkable 9 in improvement on his old pr. Two vultures going at 16–0. Portillo is down on tiebreakers, but assured no worse than silver.

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

He has a medal. Now we see what color. He’ll be third place heading into 15–6.

Desirae Spearman’s return to El Paso is going ok. Three-run dong, it’s 9-0 in top of the second

UTEP volleyball is playing North Carolina as a 6 seed in Wisconsin

Delaware 61, UTEP 31, final. Up next is recruiting day. Those have been good for the Miners lately. If they played games in recruits living rooms they'd probably be better.

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 48, UTEP 31, 8:02 4th. Eight play, 69-yard drive to ice it. Miners will finish 2-10. I'm going to watch the undefeated UTEP women's team now.

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 41, UTEP 23, 2:04 3rd. Locklear intercepted, Blue Heens scoot down to the 8 fairly effortlessly before UTEP makes a goal-line stand. Now down 18

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 38, UTEP 23, 4:38 3rd. And like so often happens, prosperity was fleeting. Delaware completes a two-play drive to reestablish a two-possession lead with a 51-yard bomb

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 31, UTPEP 23, 5:25 3rd. Miners march 56 yards in eight plays, but after 1st and goal from the 5, they go backwards (a delay of game was a factor) and settle for a 28-yard FG

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 31, UTEP 20, 0:04 2nd. UTEP gets a TD it desperate need. Miners took over on their 41 with 1:03 left and covered 59 yards with 4 seconds to spare. 2-yard pass Locklear to Willis. A 35-yarder to Davis set all that up. Conversion pass fails

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 31, UTEP 14, 2:01 2nd. Miners defense looks worn out by this season. Delaware gets a big kickoff return, then goes 62 yards in six plays, facing one 3rd-and-1

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 24, UTEP 14, 5:05 2nd. A 64-yard bomb from Locklear, who is back in, to the tight end Schuchts. Offense comes back to life after four poor possessions

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Make that 5 defensive touchdowns by an opponent

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 24, UTEP 7, 9:09 2nd. Once again UTEP scores on itself, the fourth time their offense has put the ball in its own end zone. On third and long, they give it to tight end Willis, he's stripped and Delaware runs it in. Shay Smith is playing QB now.

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 17, UTPE 7, 10:24 2nd. Miners stuffed on downs at their 42, but defense makes a stand and forces a 37 yd FG. That caps a 5-play drive.

[Bretbloomquist @Bretbloomquist]

Delaware 14, UTEP 7, 14:26 2nd. Blue Hens complete a 9-play, 69-yard drive to take the lead. They got the ball after UTEP lost 23 yards on its previous possession.
