Lady Rebels entertain pair of MWC rivals

Thursday, Jan. 23, 2003 | 10 a.m.

The first of several key Mountain West Conference games for the UNLV Lady Rebels is on tap tonight, as conference-leading Utah visits Cox Pavilion at 7:35.

The Utes (12-3, 2-0) are led by talented freshman Kim Smith of British Columbia, Canada, who leads the team in scoring (17.1 ppg) and rebounding (7.3 rpg).

The Lady Rebels (10-4, 1-0) will attempt to counter with an attack led by high-scoring Constance Jinks, who ranks second in the MWC with an 18.3 average.

Utah leads the series 12-10, although the Lady Rebels enjoyed some success last year, beating the Utes twice in three games.

Following tonight's clash with Utah, the Lady Rebels will host Brigham Young, another MWC toughie, at 7:35 p.m. Saturday at Cox.
