In the Bears' participation at the Cadet Mariner Classic over the weekend, the Staten Island native averaged 10 points in the two games, including 12 against Mitchell College on Saturday afternoon. Leading the team with 16 points per game this season, Reno totaled nine assists and five steals in the week.
