Nevada looks to bounce back against Air Force Saturday

RENO, Nev. Nevada women's basketball returns to Lawlor Events Center on Saturday to face Air Force at 1 p.m. in Armed Forces Appreciation.

Larry Burnett will have the call on 94.1 FM and 1450 AM, with a 20 minute pregame show prior to tipoff. Fans can also listen live online through the Varsity Network. The game will be available to watch on the Mountain West Network and live stats can be accessed through Sidearm.

In addition to honoring the service of the brave men and women who fight for our country, Nevada women's basketball will also be hosting a free postgame clinic followed by autographs from the team following the game. 

Saturday's game serves as a rematch of the 2022 Mountain West Quarterfinals, where Air Force upset Nevada 75-60 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas Nevada. The Pack went on to capture a bid to the Women's Basketball Invitational while Air Force advanced to the second round of the Women's National Invitational Tournament. 

Lexie Givens, Alyssa Jimenez, Megan Ormiston and Victoria Davis have contributed heavily in multiple categories recently for the Pack. Givens produced back-to-back double-doubles for points and rebounds in the 2022 Nugget Classic on Nov. 25 and 27, earning All-Tournament team honors in the process. She was the first Nevada player since Terae Briggs in 2018 to post a double-double in back-to-back games.

Davis and Jimenez came up with double digit numbers in points and rebounds against Idaho on Dec. 3, becoming the first Nevada duo to collect a double-double in the same game since 2019. Ormiston picked up her first collegiate double-double (26 points, 11 rebounds) on Dec. 11 against Santa Clara, posting career-highs in both categories. Jimenez most recently added her second career double-double on Dec. 29 against San Jose State (14 points, 10 rebounds).
