It's been an incredible year for the UNLV Rebels athletics program, historic even. As great a year as it was on the field, the UNLV student-athletes have had an incredible school year in the classroom. They continue to smash records for how their athletes have performed academically this year. While they have piled up awards, honors, and achievements over the past few months, this next one may be the most impressive and is absolutely the most important. 

There will be 102 Rebels graduating this month, which is a school record for student-athletes graduating in one school year. UNLV Athletics Department and Director of Athletics Erick Harper held the annual Senior Send-Off reception for graduates and their families Friday morning at the Thomas & Mack Center to celebrate this massive accomplishment for the students and the program. The graduation will also be held at the Thomas & Mack Center.
