Final Stats

PHOENIX, Ariz. (UNLVRebels.com) - UNLV baseball (2-2) struggled to get anything going offensively as the Rebels were shut out 7-0 by Grand Canyon (4-0) on Tuesday.

The Antelopes used strong pitching to take care of UNLV, retiring 16 straight at one point.

GCU got on the board after a two run homer in the bottom of the third. The `Lopes tacked on another run in the bottom of the fifth, two more in the bottom of the sixth and two more runs in the bottom of the eighth.

The Rebels' best opportunity came in the top of the eighth inning when they had two runners in scoring position with two outs, but a UNLV strikeout ended the threat.

Numerous Rebels made their collegiate debuts in the game as Corey Wilson, Blaze Bohall, Dan Skelly and Christian Myers came in for relief.
