NOTES:
  • The Rebels are coming off a second-place showing as host of the prestigious Southern Highlands Collegiate, where they bested eight of nine top-25 ranked squads and finished only behind the nation's current top-ranked Auburn.
  • During the 2024-25 campaign, UNLV has notched two team wins as part of four top-5 team performances, including first-place finishes at SMU's Trinity Forest Invitational in the fall and Hawai'i's John A. Burns Intercollegiate this spring. 
  • Additionally, the Rebels have seen a player earn individual medalist honors in back-to-back events with Little's win back in February and Fioroni's win nearly two weeks ago at Southern Highlands Golf Club.
  • This marks the second straight season UNLV has recorded an individual win in two consecutive events after Yuki Moriyama's back-to-back victories during the 2023-24 campaign, including last year's All-American Intercollegiate.
  • The Scarlet & Gray lineup features two individuals ranked in the national player rankings as Fioroni sits at 19th and Little stands at 30th. Fioroni was recently named to the Haskins Award First Spring Watch List.
