Nevada holds off Air Force in thrilling victory 62-59
RENO, Nev. (Nevada Athletics) – Nevada women’s basketball returned to its home court for the first time in two weeks, downing Air Force in a thrilling 62-59 win.
Lexie Givens moved up to fourth all-time in rebounds after grabbing six boards. Dymonique Maxie led in scoring with 16 points, followed by Izzy Sullivan with 14 and Audrey Roden with 12. Kendra Hicks grabbed a season high seven rebounds.
The Wolf Pack were playing from behind to start off the game, before tying it up off a layup by Givens. The Falcons jumped back in front and held it until the Pack got their first lead of the game with a layup by Maxie with just over three minutes left in the first.
The remainder of the opening 10 was a back-and-forth battle as both teams fought to gain the advantage. Into the second, the game was all tied up at 11.
Air Force opened up the second quarter with a good basket. Maxie answered with one of her own, followed by a jumper by Victoria Davis to put Nevada up by one.
Nevada continued to play aggressively and match each basketball by Air Force. With a minute and a half left before the break, the Pack had come back from being down by four to tie it up at 23. They headed into the break trailing 25-23.
The Pack opened up the second half with fire as they went on a 10-4 run within the first two minutes, Sullivan leading the charge with two made threes. Nevada remained in front through the rest of the quarter, taking a 44-38 advantage into the final 10.
Quarter four saw the largest lead of the game for either team as the Pack went up by 11. Air Force made a push late in the final 10, cutting Nevada’s lead down to two.
Despite the attempts, the Wolf Pack were able to hold off the Falcons to grab the win.
Nevada will remain at home to host Fresno State on Wednesday at 11 AM in the When I Grow Up game.
