Thunder eyes 3rd straight victory

Wednesday, Nov. 18, 1998 | 10:58 a.m.

The Las Vegas Thunder will take its season-high two-game winning streak into the Thomas & Mack Center tonight at 7:05, when it will face the Long Beach Ice Dogs for the second time in as many games.

The Thunder handed the Ice Dogs their first home loss on Sunday, beating them 4-3.

The victory gave Las Vegas a 5-8-2 record, tying it for the worst mark in the Western Conference. Long Beach is 12-4-0 and is tied with Houston for first place.

Tonight's game marks the first of four straight at the T&M.

The Thunder then will play 15 of its next 16 on the road, including 10 straight from Dec. 2-20. As it has every season, the Thunder was forced to schedule so many away games to facilitate the UNLV basketball team and the National Finals Rodeo.
