Four football players were suspended for their roles in the postgame brawl at the football game, the Mountain West conference announced on Monday.
The athletes are: Evan Austrie, Noah Bean, Giovanni Fauolo Sr. and Justin Polu.
Steve Jenkins was issued a public reprimand for violating the conference’s sportsmanship rules.
“For their roles in the Nevada football postgame altercation on November 30, Fauolo will serve a two-game suspension, Austrie and Bean will serve a one-game suspension and Polu is suspended for one-half game,” the Mountain West said in a statement.
“Fauolo is suspended for the first two games of the 2020 season, while Bean will miss UNLV’s 2020 season opener. Since Austrie and Polu have exhausted their college eligibility, the Mountain West will defer to UNLV for appropriate disciplinary action.”
Last week, the Mountain West suspended four Nevada players for their roles in the altercation.
The University of Nevada, Reno also asked for the public’s help in identifying six fans for their roles in the postgame altercation. One of those fans have come forward for question, according to university police.
