Where They Stand: The UNLV Rebels sit 34th in the latest edition of the NFCA's Simulated Ratings Percentage Index. The RPI is a mathematical calculation used to determine a team's success, using a calculated strength of schedule and won-loss percentage.
Currently, UNLV owns a 5-10 mark against team's rated within the top 50. They defeated Marshall (RPI #50), Georgia Tech (#34), Cal Poly (#36), Notre Dame (#47) and Long Beach State (#33).
Six of the 10 losses came to squads ranked in both of the two major Top 25 polls.
The Rebels own a 20-4 mark when it comes to playing squads in the 51 and up range.
When it comes to Mountain West Conference foes, UNLV is the highest rated of the six teams. San Diego State comes in second at #46. BYU is third with a #56 showing.
Walking To The Top: Jaci Hull became UNLV's all-time career leader in walks with her two free passes issued by New Mexico (April 10). Hull surpassed Julie Crandall's (1995-98) tally of 110 with help from UNM. She already owns the top two single-season walk tallies in the program's history.
