BRIEFS

UNLV’s sports conference — the Mountain West — has a new slogan and “refreshed brand identity.” Built Bold is the “new defining tagline.”

The Vegas Golden Knights Foundation said it raised $2,001,640 through the 51/49 Raffle during the 2025-26 season. All proceeds came from the team’s home games at T-Mobile Arena from the regular season and Stanley Cup Playoffs.
