Lady Rebels Aiming For Season Sweep Monday In Boise

UNLV is currently fifth in the MW standings with two games to go.

LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) -   UNLV is looking for its second season sweep of the season and to remain in the hunt for a top three seed as the Lady Rebels will take on Boise State on the Broncos' Senior Night Monday in Boise, with a 6 pm (PT) tip.  


There will be a live video stream available on the Mountain West Network, with the link also available on UNLVRebels.com. Wyatt Tomchek (play-by-play) and will handle the radio broadcast which is also available on UNLVRebels.com.

UNLV Game Notes  

♦  After snapping a four-game losing streak with Saturday's five-point win over San Diego State, UNLV now looks to make it two wins in a row when it takes on Boise State
♦  The all-time series could not be more even between the two teams, as it currently stands at 10-10 (6-6 in Las Vegas, 4-4 in Boise).
♦  A win would give the Lady Rebels their second season sweep of the season, while the Broncos have not been swept by a league opponent since Colorado State in 2015-16.
♦  With two games left in the regular season, UNLV can still finish anywhere between third and sixth in the MW. At least one win in the last two games, or at least one loss by UNR would clinch a top-five seed and a first-round bye in next week's MW Tournament.
♦  Senior Rodjanae Wade is having a tremendous final season for the Lady Rebels, as she currently ranks first in the nation in offensive rebounding (5.3 rpg) and is third in double-doubles (18).
♦  UNLV is winning off defense, as the Lady Rebels are currently third in the MW in scoring defense and field goal percentage defense as well as No. 8 in the nation in three-point field goal defense. UNLV is also leading the league in rebound margin for the fifth straight season.
♦  The 2019-20 UNLV Lady Rebel squad are one of the youngest and least experienced teams in the Mountain West this season after graduating four senior starters. UNLV has 10 underclassmen on this year's squad, with seven freshmen and three sophomores, while the four-member senior class had a total of two career starts (as a Lady Rebel) entering the season.
