The UTEP Miners have added the Stony Brook Seawolves of the Big South to their 2011 football schedule, Stony Brook head coach Chuck Priore announced on Friday.

The game will take place on September 3, 2011 at the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas. It will be the first ever meeting between the two schools.

With the addition of Stony Brook to the 2011 UTEP football schedule, the Miners have non-conference games scheduled against Stony Brook (9/3), at South Florida (9/24) and Colorado State (10/22).  The Miners will also play at New Mexico State, but the date for that game is TBA.
