The Aggies stumbled to a 65-92 loss on the road against the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels. The loss marks the only time the Aggies have been swept by a Mountain West Conference foe this season.
My game ball will go to junior shooting guard Mason Falslev. Falslev scored a team-high 20 points, hitting 5 of his 11 shots from the field, knocking down 8 of 11 free throw tries, and stroking 2 of 6 shots from behind the three-point line. He pulled down 3 offensive rebounds and 8 defensive boards for a team-high total of 11 rebounds on the night. He also dished out 4 assists and swiped 3 steals.
Falslev currently averages 16.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 2.0 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game.
The Aggies have the opportunity to win the Mountain West Conference championship outright at home Saturday, March 7th, in a winner-take-all grudge match versus the University of New Mexico Lobos.
