Nevada Basketball: Wolf Pack cruises easily over Holy Names

The Nevada Wolf Pack turned in an excellent performance on Monday Night as the team shot 59 percent from the field, 56 percent from the three-point line and produced 29 assists as the Wolf Pack thumped Division II Holy Names 108-57. It was the most points Nevada scored since 2009 when they scored 112 points in a victory over Houston and it was the largest margin of victory for Nevada since they defeated Sonoma State by 56 points back in 2008.

Nevada got off to a slow start early in the first half when after the Hawks tied the game at 15-15, coach Eric Musselman called a timeout to get the team back on focus and after that timeout, the Wolf Pack went on a 24-0 scoring run to takeover the lead that they never relinquished.
