SAN JOSE- Looking for redemption San Jose took on Nevada at home.

After a quick start to the first half seeing Nevada jump out to a 10-5 lead San Jose responded and with 5:50 left it was a one point game at 22-21.

San Jose was never able to take a lead but Nevada could never pull to far away either as the opening half ended at 34-29.

The leading scorer in the first half for San Jose State was Latrell Davis who posted 11 points shooting 4-8.

For Nevada Nick Davidson lead the way with seven points as he shot a very efficient 3-4.

In the second half SJSU was able to tie it this time at 40 just four minutes into the half.

Unfortunately after the tie Nevada went on a long run as they took their lead to 57-42.

After extending their lead to 67-48 SJSU was able to pull back a little closer at 72-59 which lead Nevada to take a timeout.

The effort ended up mattering little though as Nevada was able to cruise the rest of the way to a 84-63 victory.

Overall in the game the leading scorer was Nick Davidson who dropped 23 points going an extremely impressive 8-9 from the field.

SJSU did have two players reach double digits as Myron Amey Jr. dropped 18 and Davis dropped 17.

With the loss the Spartans fall to 9-19 while Nevada improves to an incredible 22-6.

As the season winds down San Jose State will play next San Diego State on the road on Tuesday at 8 p.m.
