FOUR-GAME WIN STREAK SNAPPED The Runnin Rebels had a four-game win streak snapped at then-no. 13 Stanford on Dec. 13...

The last time UNLV lost three in a row was last season from Jan. 16 through Jan. 25. SUSPENSIONS OVER Seniors J.K. Edwards and James Peters were forced to miss the beginning of the season for their involvement in the unauthorized use of a UNLV phone personal identification number. Edwards had to miss the season s first six games, while Peters was out for the first three... Both player s suspensions have been served and they are both eligible to play all of the season s remaining games. Edwards made his debut at Stanford with 12 points on 5-of-8 from the field... He has now played in three games and started vs. Auburn... Peters has averaged 14.2 minutes per game since returning... Peters has played in six games. ROAD RECORD With wins at USC and at Loyola Marymount, UNLV won its first two road games of the season for the first time since the 1992-93 season... UNLV lost its third road game of the season at then-no. 13 Stanford and is 2-1 on the road this season... The last time UNLV won its first three road games of a season was during the 1990-91 season as the team was 34-0 overall before falling to Duke in the Final Four. LAST TIME OUT - AUBURN Odartey Blankson had 16 points and 13 rebounds to lead UNLV past Auburn 82-69 on Dec. 20 at the Thomas & Mack Center. UNLV had five players score in double digits, including Romel Beck with 13 and Demetrius Hunter with 12. The Rebels built a 60-44 lead, their largest, with 11:48 left in the game. The Tigers cut the lead to 72-66 with 2:59 left, but came no closer. Brandon Robinson and Ronny LeMelle had 15 points apiece for Auburn. Nathan Watson added 11. UNLV (6-3) won despite 5-of-21 shooting from 3-point range. Auburn (7-1), who lost for the first time in its first road game of the season, was 6-of-15 from 3-point range. J.K. Edwards and Jerel Blassingame both had 11 points for the Rebels, who shot 29-of-57 from the field for 50.9 percent. Auburn was 25-of-51 for 49 percent from the field. UNLV also led in rebounding, 41-27. Auburn led by three points twice in the first half, the last at 12-9. The Rebels then took the lead at 15-13 with 10:20 until halftime and led the rest of the way, eventually building a 34-21 lead, their largest of the half. UNLV led 39-32 at halftime. WHAT A DIFFERENCE A GAME MAKES Heading into the USC game on Dec. 3, UNLV was shooting 26.4 percent from 3-point range on the season. After its 13-of-26 performance from beyond the arc vs. the Trojans, UNLV was shooting 32.7 percent from the same distance on the year. On the flip side, UNLV s opponents were shooting 35.0 percent from 3-point range heading into the USC game, but the Trojans 1-of-23 performance dropped that number to 26.5 percent afterward. Currently, UNLV is shooting 32.8 percent from 3- point range, while limiting its opponents to 26.2 percent. OUT-REBOUNDED, BUT... UNLV has been out-rebounded in six of its nine games this season, however, the Runnin Rebels are 6-3. UNLV has out-rebounded Western Illinois (45-32), Loyola Marymount (34-33) and Auburn (41-27) this season and is 3-0 in those games. PERCENTAGES UNLV is holding its opponents to 43.3 percent shooting from the field, while the Runnin Rebels are hitting 48.6 percent of their shots. UNLV held Cal to 33.8 percent shooting from the field, which is the season-low for the Runnin Rebels. UNLV has shot 50 percent or better from the field six times this year including a season-high 56.1 percent at USC. FIRST-HALF SUCCESS A part of UNLV s early-season success can be attributed to its first-half shooting. In five games this season, UNLV has shot lights-out from the field in the first half. In its season opener against Delaware State, UNLV shot 65.2 percent from the field, which is the season high. Against Cal, UNLV shot 51.7 percent in the first half, shot 59.3 percent at USC, 52.2 percent at Stanford and 57.1 percent vs. Northern Arizona. UNLV has shot 50 percent or better in the second half at Loyola Marymount (50.0), at Stanford (51.9) and vs. Auburn (57.7). A TEAM EFFORT UNLV has had at least four players score in double figures in the same game five times this season. Five players scored in double figures at USC and vs. Auburn. Last season, UNLV had only seven games in which four players scored 10 or more points in the same game and had five players in double figures only once. 2

Odartey Blankson sat out last season after transferring from Marquette, while junior college transfers Romel Beck, Jerel Blassingame and Andy Hannan all suited up for the first time in Scarlet & Gray. Freshmen Michael Umeh and John Winston also played their first UNLV game and Louis Amundson played for the first time since the 2001-02 season becuase of a medical redshirt last year. The only player who saw action for the Runnin Rebels in their season opener that played on the team last year was Demetrius Hunter.

The team had to pack so many games into the first part of the season to make way for the National Finals Rodeo that comes to the Thomas & Mack Center each December. UNLV s game vs. NAU at the Thomas & Mack Center marked the first home game for UNLV in 20 calendar days and the first of six-straight at the Thomas & Mack Center for the Runnin Rebels.

SPOONHOUR ERA - YEAR THREE Charlie Spoonhour became the 12th head coach in Runnin Rebel history on March 29, 2001, and is in his third year coaching at UNLV (48-25;.658). He was named the United States Basketball Writers Association s District VIII Coach of the Year after leading the Runnin Rebels to a 21-11 mark in his first season at UNLV, which included a second round NIT appearance. He followed that up in year two with another 21-11 overall record and NIT berth.

Dating back to the 1973-74 season, UNLV has posted 20 or more wins in 24 out of the last 30 years, including 30 or more wins four times. With 21 wins as well in 2001-02, UNLV has now had back-to-back 20-win seasons for the first time since 1996-97 and 1997-98 when the Runnin Rebels were 22-10 and 20-13, respectively. 66-16 IN LAST 82 GAMES AT TMC The Runnin Rebels are playing their 21st season in the 18,500-seat Thomas & Mack Center in 2003-04 and are 4-2 at home thus far. UNLV has posted an all-time record of 278-53 (.840) in the arena since it opened in 1983. Last season, the Runnin Rebels were 15-6 at home. UNLV was 17-3 at home in 2001-02, 12-3 in 2000-01 and 18-2 in 1999-00, so UNLV has won 66 of its last 82 games at home (.805). SPOONHOUR 36-11 AT TMC Charlie Spoonhour, who is in his third year as head coach of the Runnin Rebels, is 36-11 (.766) in games played at the Thomas & Mack Center. UNLV BOASTS BEST HOME MARK IN MWC Out of the eight Mountain West schools, UNLV has the best all-time winning percentage on its home court. UNLV is 278-53 (.840) at the Thomas & Mack Center, while Utah is second at.830 (433-89). UNLV: ONLY WINNER VS. MWC The Runnin Rebels are the only team in the MWC to have an all-time winning record against each of the other seven members of the conference: Air Force (15-2), BYU (8-7), Colorado State (17-6), New Mexico (15-9), San Diego State (26-6), Utah (13-12), Wyoming (13-12). 13OOTH GAME UNLV s game at Wisconsin on Dec. 7 of last season marked the 1,300th game in program history. UNLV, which is in its 46th year of basketball, has now played 1,336 games and has an all-time record of 960-376 (.719). 3-POINT GOAL... UNLV holds the NCAA record for most consecutive games with a made 3-pointer. Since the 3-point field goal was adopted by the NCAA in 1986-87, UNLV has converted at least one 3-pointer in all 548 games played. Entering the 2003-04 season, Vanderbilt (533) was the only other team to have made at least one 3-pointer in every game played since the rule was put into place. Kentucky was third with 509 consecutive games with a made 3-pointer, followed by Georgia Tech (504), Arkansas (488), Duke (480), Western Kentucky (479), Princeton (469), Dayton (432), Charlotte (428) and New Mexico (396). UNLV entered the season with 539 consecutive games with a made 3-pointer. In the 548 games, the Runnin Rebels have made 3,551-of-9,856 (.360) shots from behind the arc. The Big West Conference experimented with the 3-point shot in the 1982-83, 1984-85 and 1985-86 seasons. During that period, UNLV connected from 3-point range in 53 of the 64 games (the 3-pointer was used in some non-conference games). The Runnin Rebels sank 194-of-505 (.384) 3-point attempts during that time. With the experimental years included, the UNLV streak for games in which it has made at least one 3-point shot stands at 565. The last time the Runnin Rebels failed to make at least one 3-pointer came against Long Beach State on Jan. 25, 1986. So, UNLV has made at least one shot from behind the arc in 601 of the 612 games in which the rule was used. In the 612 total games, the Runnin Rebels have shot.362 from this distance while sinking 3,746-of-10,361. 5

IN OVERTIME UNLV is 41-19 (.683) all-time in overtime games (1-0 this season) and was 1-1 in overtime last season. In 2001-02, UNLV was 4-1 in overtime. UNLV s five overtime games during 2001-02 marked the first time it had ever played in more than four overtime games in one season. The only time UNLV played in four overtimes was during the 1994-95 season. UNLV is 33-16 (.674) in single overtime games, 6-3 (.667) in double overtime and 2-0 (1.000) in triple overtime. The Runnin Rebels have a record of 8-3 in overtime games at the Thomas & Mack Center. UNLV has won five of its last six games that have been sent to overtime. OVER.5OO 41 times in its 45 complete seasons of basketball, UNLV has finished the season with a winning percentage of over.500. The last time UNLV didn t finish with a winning record was the 1995-96 season when the Runnin Rebels were 10-16. UNLV IS THIRD-WINNINGEST PROGRAM IN DIVISION I With an all-time record of 928-363 (.719) against four-year American institutions entering the 2003-04 season, UNLV ranked as the third-winningest program by percentage in NCAA Division I history (min. 25 years in Div. I). Kentucky s record of 1,849-572-1 (.764) placed the Wildcats as the all-time leader. School Years Record Pct.
