Women's College Basketball Preview: Wyoming vs. UNLV

The UNLV Lady Rebels are absolutely rolling into tournament season. They have locked up the regular season Mountain West Conference crown and have looked unstoppable in conference play. UNLV has now won eight straight and 17 of their past 18. Their conference record now sits at 16-1, with their closest competition holding a record of 13-4 with one final game left.

However, that one final game just so happens to be against that second-place team on the road. The Lady Rebels will face their toughest possible test to end the regular season against the Wyoming Cowgirls, who hold the second-place spot in the Mountain West standings. It is going to be a tough task to go into Laramie and beat a very good team that has a record of 10-2 at home this season. Wyoming is the perfect matchup to get UNLV primed for the postseason after a handful of somewhat meaningless games over the past few weeks.
