What was said following the UNLV basketball team’s 89-81 victory at Southern Utah on Wednesday:
Coach Marvin Menzies
“Every time we threw something at them defensively, (Thunderbirds coach Todd Simon) had a great counter, and we had to keep adjusting and keep playing. It wasn’t checkers tonight. It was definitely chess, and you’ve got to give Todd credit for getting those guys ready to play and the performance they had tonight.”
“I was proud of the young guys that got off the bench and gave us some contribution and some different positions and some good minutes … and it was valuable experience for them.
