UNLV challenge Falcons Saturday...

The Lady Rebels will be looking to win back-to-back games for the first time in league play this season when they play at Air Force on Saturday afternoon. UNLV comes into the game on the heels of a 23-point win over Nevada, Reno on Wednesday night, which evened its overall record at 4-4 to stand alone in fifth place in the Mountain West.

Air Force is also coming into the contest following a victory. That victory however, an 83-80 win over San Jose State in Colorado Springs, was just the second win of the season for the Falcons, breaking a 17-game losing streak.

The Falcons currently rank last in the Mountain West in 11 categories, including in points per game (53.9) and field goal percentage (33.6%). One area the Lady Rebels could have a strong advantage in is rebounding, as UNLV is the 13th-best offensive rebounding team in the nation, while Air Force is 11th in the conference in rebounding margin at -14.2.
