Game Preview

The UNLV Lady Rebels have bounced back after their first Mountain West Conference loss of the season to the San Diego State Aztecs with two consecutive wins over the Air Force Falcons and, more recently, the Nevada Wolf Pack. On Saturday, the Lady Rebels knocked off the Wolf Pack in Las Vegas by a score of 62 - 57. They are now sitting at 9 - 1 in Mountain West play and just 0.5 games behind San Diego State for first place in the conference. Overall, they are 14 - 6 on the season. UNLV has come on extremely strong since tipping off their Mountain West schedule.

Next up for the Lady Rebs, they will hit the road and head to Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Wednesday night to face off with the New Mexico Lobos. In their last outing, the Lobos snapped a three-game losing streak when they defeated the Air Force Falcons by a score of 74 - 57. They are currently 5 - 4 in conference play and 13 - 7 overall. New Mexico is a tough team. While the Rebels should be able to get this win, even on the road, they'll have to be at their best to pull off this win.
