Luke Lippincott, a senior running back, is this week's Wolf Pack Athlete of the Week, for the week of Nov. 16-22.
Lippincott tallied 162 yards on 19 carries, putting him at 1,028 yards for the season. He joined quarterback Colin Kaepernick and running back Vai Taua as 1,000-yard rushers on the Wolf Pack roster, and Nevada became the first team in NCAA history to have three players in one season top 1,000 yards rushing.
Lippincott also surpassed 3,000 yards for his career, making him just the fifth Wolf Pack palyer to do so.
Nevada will announce a Student-Athlete of the Week each Monday on the official website of Nevada athletics, www.nevadawolfpack.com.
