Lady Rebels snag first conference win against Spartans
The UNLV Lady Rebels secured their first Mountain West conference win of the season with their 79-60 rout of the San Jose State Spartans at the Cox Pavilion Thursday, Jan. 3.
On Dec. 30 however, UNLV fell to Mountain West foe Boise State, 69-60. The win over the Spartans was the Lady Rebels’ second consecutive win against San Jose State since last season.
Efficient shooting inside the arc was the Lady Rebels’ key to victory as they made 27 of 50 two-point field goal attempts, good for 54 percent.
Nobody displayed this efficiency better than junior forward Paris Strawther who scored a game-high 18 points on six of 11 shooting.
