Nevada lost the opening game of the College Basketball Invitational championship series on Monday night against Morehead State by a score of 86-83. Tyron Criswell led the Pack with 31 points on 10-13 shooting.
The Wolf Pack offense began the game by going 4-6 from the floor, continuing their surprisingly efficient shooting spree since the CBI tournament started. Nevada’s quick start was quickly negated by a four minute scoring drought and a 7-0 run by Morehead State.
And then the Wolf Pack was faced with a familiar challenge: freshman phenom Cameron Oliver picked up his second foul just six minutes into the first half.
