UNLV Rebels Set to Clash with Nevada Wolf Pack in Reno Rumble

As the UNLV Rebels prepare for their upcoming encounter at the Lawlor Events Center, fans are eager to see if they can maintain their recent momentum. The Rebels have shown a promising trend over their last few games, which could play a significant role as they face off against the Nevada Wolf Pack.

In their most recent game against the Fresno State Bulldogs, the Lady Rebels secured a comfortable victory with 63 points to 49. Their performance was marked by an impressive 52 percent success rate from two-point range and a solid defensive effort that held their opponents to just 34 percent field goal shooting. Dominating in rebounds with a total of 44 compared to Fresno State's 28, they also excelled in points from paint plays, scoring 40 points.

The previous game saw them edge out New Mexico's Lobos by six points (62-56), where they shot at an even forty percent both from within and beyond the arc. Their ability to convert turnovers into points was notable as well, scoring fifteen off turnovers.

However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for UNLV; when facing Wyoming's Cowgirls at home earlier this month, they had a narrow win of just seven points (58-51). Despite lower field goal percentages across the board than in later games (39 percent overall), what stood out was their ball handling – turning over possession only three times throughout and achieving an assist-to-turnover ratio of three.

As we look ahead to February 25th’s game against Nevada Wolf Pack at Lawlor Events Center in Reno, it is clear that maintaining these trends will be key for UNLV – capitalizing on inside scoring opportunities and controlling possession could very well dictate this contest’s outcome. Fans can catch all the action live on Saturday night at half-past six local time.
