Launched in 2012 by Nevada's then-Governor Brian Sandoval under the original name of the Governor's Series, this historic competition established a formal head-to-head athletic and academic challenge between longtime rivals -- the Rebels and the Wolf Pack. 

Rebranded in 2018, the all-encompassing competition annually crowns one school the winner of the Silver State Series presented by IBEW and Nevada Donor Network.
