The Nevada Lady Tigers celebrated Senior Night in a home game against the Lady Trojans Thursday night.

But the balls just didn't fall for the Lady Tigers, and a Senior Night win just wasn't to be.

"I still think that we are a much improved basketball team," said Coach Brent Bartlett of the 54-39 loss.
