What looked like a rebounding year for UNLV’s women’s basketball team could culminate in a way few thought possible when the week began.
UNLV
Boy, I sure called that one.
Even on one of senior guard Wink Adams’ best days, UNLV was rocked with the worst possible result.
UNLV men’s golf coach Dwaine Knight is convinced his team is talented enough to repeat as champion of its annual spring tournament.
After trailing by as many as 18 points in the second half, the UNLV Lady Rebels rallied back to within two, but fell 71-63 to San Diego State in a Mountain West Conference tournament semifinal at the Thomas & Mack Center on Friday.
Shamela Hampton scored 13 points and pulled down five rebounds, but San Diego State used its distinct advantage in athleticism to grab a 32-30 lead at the break.
The first semifinal of the Mountain West Conference women’s tournament was won by Utah on a runner in the lane by Morgan Warburton.
Seconds seemed to tick off like minutes for UNLV coach Kathy Olivier as another big lead began to shrink.
Missy Ringler’s lip quivered a little, but she made sure to hold her emotions in check.
Before their senior season, Wink Adams and Rene Rougeau envisioned a script for UNLV to follow.
It took four years for Utah center Luke Nevill to quiet the criticism that he was a 7-foot-2-inch, 265-pound underachiever. He stood head and shoulders above the crowd but seldom was a standout as he made progress seemingly at the pace of his lumbering stride.
