Caleb Grill had his coming out party with his 27 point performance, with seven three-pointers against Alabama last night, but his effort was not enough as UNLV dropped its third game of the season, 86-74, to the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Maui Invitational.
UNLV played its best game of the season by far, but it was not enough to stop the hot shooting from the Alabama guards. The Crimson Tide shot 64 percent (seven of 17) in the second half and six players were in double figures including John Petty with 22 points. They also did not put together a complete game and play a full 40 minutes.
