Taking the Temperature of MW Hoops

Non-conference play is over, with one exception, as MW conference play begins this week. Some teams see sunshine on the horizon and most are dealing with thunderstorms. Last week’s rankings are in italics.

1. Nevada (Nevada)

The Wolf Pack stay undefeated at 13-0 after polishing off Utah 86-71 in Salt Lake City. Caleb Martin set a career high with 33 points, and Jazz Johnson knocked down 4 of 4 from three point range. The Wolf Pack open conference play by welcoming Utah State to Reno and then head to the Pit for the first time since their memorable comeback two years prior.
