HONOLULU (AP) — Stefphon Jefferson tied an NCAA record by scoring seven touchdowns to lead Nevada in a 69-24 win over Hawai`i on Saturday. The Wolfpack led 34-17 at halftime and never looked back as they snapped a seven game losing streak in Honolulu dating back to 1948, and spoiled the Warrior’s Mountain West Football Conference debut. Sean Schroeder completed 22 of 40 for 234 yards with two interceptions, and Will Gregory ran for 92 yards and a touchdown for the Warriors who fell to 1-2 overall and 0-1 in conference play.
