LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) - In a span of four weekends, the UNLV softball program will host a pair of doubleheaders, a two-day tournament and an alumnae game. Beginning on Oct. 18 and running through Nov. 8, there will be a total of 11 contests played at Eller Media Stadium with the Rebels involved in nine of those.

UNLV began its fall practice on Sept. 9 with a squad comprised of 11 returning letterwinners and 11 newcomers. The Rebels will be led by three players that helped the team to a second-place finish in the Mountain West with a 15-9 mark en route to a 26-28 overall record. Garie Blando was named the MW's Player of the Year, while teammates Emily Haslinger and Samantha Juarez were also all-conference team representatives. The trio was also honored on a pair of NFCA All-West Region Teams.

The Rebels will welcome two teams from the Beehive State to Las Vegas for doubleheaders on consecutive weekends. A two-game set with BYU kicks off the fall action on Oct. 18 (11:00 am). Salt Lake Community College heads down I-15 a week later on Oct. 25 for a twin bill scheduled to begin at 11:00 am.

A three-team round-robin tournament is slated for Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 at EMS. Joining the Rebels at the two-day affair are College of Southern Nevada and Cypress College.

Closing out the fall schedule will be an alumnae game between those that donned the Scarlet & Gray in the past and the current edition on Nov. 8 at 9:00 am.
