The Lady Rebels would hit a tough fallaway jumper to tie the score at 67-67 with 14 seconds left. After Wyoming turned the ball over its next time with the ball, UNLV called a timeout with 2.1 to go before missing a last-second 3-point heave, sending the game to OT.

A McKinna Brackens layup 6.5 seconds remaining in overtime helped UNLV escape with a 72-71 victory over the visiting University of Wyoming on Sunday afternoon in Las Vegas.
