ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — What the UNLV basketball team said following its 71-66 victory at New Mexico on Tuesday:
Coach Marvin Menzies
“You’ve got to keep teaching them. It’s all about getting better. Getting better sometimes equates to wins, and that’s what happened tonight. We took a step up. I thought we had a lot of energy and effort against Utah State in Logan (79-63 loss on Saturday), and we did that again. We were a little bit better defensively tonight.”
On Jovan Mooring starting at point guard: “I think it helped the overall point guard position in general.
