Former Miner Jessica Salvi is in her first year with the UTEP coaching staff as a program coordinator.

Salvi, who is on track to graduate in Dec. 2009 with a degree in multidisciplinary studies, will assist in all areas of the program, but will work especially with UTEP's goaltenders.

Salvi registered an impressive record of 19-7-1, with eight of the triumphs coming via the shutout. She rates second in UTEP history in save percentage (.851), third in blankings and fourth in goals against average (1.18).

The native of Jackson Hole, Wyo., was especially dominant in 2007, shattering single-season school standards for GAA (0.54), fewest goals allowed (five) and save percentage (.930). She fought through injuries to started 11 games, going 10-1-0. Salvi was just short of qualifying in the national stat categories due to the missed games, but she would have placed third in save percentage and 15th in GAA.

Salvi is the daughter of Roger and Stefanie Salvi.
