Horned Frogs fall 70-58

It wasn't all that close down the stretch of the Frogs'  70-58 defeat after UNLV widened its lead to 66-52 not long after a timeout with 6 1/2 minutes to play. The Frogs were down only six at halftime but didn't have the offensive firepower to match that of the Runnin' Rebels. UNLV is pretty good: 16-4 overall and 5-1 in the Mountain West. TCU falls to 11-8, 3-3. Brent Hackett had 19 points, Kevin Langford 17 for the Frogs. TCU's next game is at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum against Air Force. It's another game on The Mtn. cable TV network.
