Angered by a last-minute loss to UNLV, Rick Pitino stormed off the Freedom Hall floor in frustration. If the Louisville coach had big plans for a New Year’s Eve party, they were spoiled.
UNLV
LAS VEGAS (AP) — UNLV nearly let a big lead fritter away against Louisville. Oscar Bellfield scored 17 points, Tre’Von Willis added 16 and the Runnin’ Rebels held on for a 76-71 win over the No. 16 Cardinals today, a game the Mountain West upstarts led by 19 points in the second half.
After an aggressive dribble drive, UNLV guard Oscar Bellfield floated down the right side of the lane and banked in a shot that was the highlight of his freshman year.
Football coaches are itinerant, moving from job to job, with few becoming attached to one city for the long term.
Running the floor and facing little resistance, Oscar Bellfield and Tre’Von Willis helped UNLV make quick work of an outclassed opponent Wednesday night.
Somewhere out there, or up there, or wherever they exist, the football gods owe Ryan Wolfe one.
A little time away from basketball was not a big concern to UNLV junior Matt Shaw. He expected to instantly regain his feel for the game after a year off because of injury.
Instead of representing her bowl game Saturday in Provo, Utah, where potential invitees Utah and Brigham Young will meet, MAACO Bowl Las Vegas executive director Tina Kunzer-Murphy will attend alma mater UNLV’s season finale against San Diego State at Sam Boyd Stadium.
