Pack notes: Jordan Caroline notches triple-double (sort of)

News and notes from the Wolf Pack’s 76-69 win over UC Irvine on Wednesday.

* Jordan Caroline’s final stat line was impressive: 15 points, 13 rebounds, five assists, zero turnovers. It was good enough for his fourth double-double of the season. But, Caroline was claiming more.

Asked how many times he hit the ground, Caroline said 13. “That’s a triple-double,” he joked.

While “times hitting the ground” isn’t an official stat, Caroline’s energy helped propel Nevada past UC Irvine. Caroline had an off shooting night, making just 4-of-15 field goals, but he was 7-of-8 from the free throw line and helped push Nevada to the win with Cameron Oliver on the bench with foul trouble.
