UNR Wolfpack Wins NCAA First Round Matchup Against Texas Longhorns

The Nevada Wolfpack came from behind to beat Texas in overtime, 87-83 Friday afternoon in a first-round game of the NCAA men's basketball tournament in Nashville. 

Nevada trailed for most of the game, until Jordan Caroline hit a free throw with three seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 68.  The Wolfpack then outscored the Longhorns 19-15 in overtime.   

They’ll play the Cincinnati Bearcats in the second round on Sunday.
