Nevada women's basketball is coming off a road win against Utah State 68-63 on Saturday. Sophomore guard Audrey Roden led Nevada with 17 points and a career-high 13 rebounds for her first double-double of the season. Junior guard Victoria Davis tallied 18 points while sophomore forward Hannah Hartley played a career-high 18 minutes to go with her first two points of the season and a career-high three rebounds.

The Pack has multiple players who passed the 500 career point mark. Lexie Givens passed the 500 career point mark on Jan. 21 against Fresno State. Roden eclipsed the 500 career point mark on Feb. 2 against Boise State. She is just the the third sophomore under head coach Amanda Levens to score 500 points at Nevada by their sophomore year. Alyssa Jimenez and Megan Ormiston also surpassed the 500 career point mark earlier this season. 

Ormiston averaged 7.9 points per game and 5.4 rebounds per game in her first year at Nevada before an injury ended her season last year. Ormiston has stepped into a larger role this season, being one of three players to post multiple double-doubles and scored 26 points in a game twice this year. She is in Nevada's Speech Pathology and Audiology graduate program, being one of 40 students selected.
