Notes/Quotes

"This game was completely unexpected," said UW head coach Joe Legerski. "It was a situation that when you get up by 20 or 25 points, it becomes a great deal easier for everyone to shoot the ball. I thought Justyna was tremendous tonight. To come up with 19 points, 11 rebounds and more importantly 7-10 from the field. We had other people step up tonight. Hanna didn't have a good night offensively, but she did a good job defensively on Sequoia Holmes. I was pleased with the effort from the whole group."

Wyoming shot 28-59 (.475) from the field and 12-26 (.462) from beyond the arc.

UNLV shot 12-58 (.207) from the field and 3-15 (.200) from beyond the arc.

Wyoming will head back out on the road to close out the week as they take on the Colorado State Rams, on Saturday, January 26. The game is set to tip off at 2:00 p.m. in Fort Collins.
