RENO, Nev. – For the first time since March 18, 2019, the Nevada Men’s Basketball team has entered the Associated Press Top 25 poll, as announced by the AP on Monday.

Nevada wrapped up one of the finest regular seasons in program history this past week, as the Pack went to 2-0 with victories over Boise State and UNLV to conclude the regular season with an exceptional record of 26-6. The 26 victories marked Nevada’s third-highest all-time regular season win total, and the Pack’s record of 13-5 in conference play secured the No. 2 seed in the Mountain West Tournament. Nevada checked in at No. 25 in this week’s poll.

Nevada has had nothing short of a sensational season thus far and they will enter the Mountain West Tournament on a seven-game win streak, the longest active streak in the conference. Nevada has also won 10 of their past 11 games, dating back to a victory over San José State at the beginning of February.

Nevada has been particularly impressive on the road in Mountain West play, as they have won seven true road games in conference play, the most of any team in the Mountain West.

Nevada will face either Colorado State or San José State in the Quarterfinals of the Mountain West Tournament on Thursday evening at 6 p.m.
