For the second straight game against UNLV, the Fresno State women’s basketball team trailed by one possession and had the ball in the final seconds.
The result was the same — the Bulldogs could not get a shot off in time.
Haley Cavinder ran first into her sister Hanna on a handoff, then into a UNLV double team as she attempted a game-winning jumper that left her hands after the final buzzer and bounced off the backboard.
UNLV (15-8, 13-5 MW) held on to defeat Fresno State (14-9, 12-6 MW) 75-74 on Senior Day Saturday, closing the game on a 9-0 run after squandering a 21-point halftime lead over the Bulldogs.
