Yes, Virginia, there is a book about your loss to Chaminade

By Dave Reardon on March 3, 2019

Jack Danilewicz’s byline is likely familiar to you if you read the sports pages of the Honolulu Star-Bulletin in the 1990s and early 2000s. In recent years, his stories about high school sports have also appeared on Midweek’s web site. I was spurred to give him a call by his mother and stepfather, Lynn and Len Scaduto. They approached me with great news after a recent University of Hawaii basketball game: Danilewicz had finally found a publisher for a book […]

Warriors seeking GA for D-line

By Stephen Tsai on March 3, 2019

The Warriors are seeking a replacement for Numi Lolohea, who accepted a graduate assistant’s job at Tennessee. Lolohea was the Warriors’ GA for the defensive line last year. The process for being accepted into a graduate program is lengthy, but working as a UH grad assistant or intern has been a boost to careers. Since the end of the 2018 season, Billy Ray Stutzmann has been hired as offensive assistant coach at Navy, Jake Thomas joined Azusa Pacific as the […]

Rainbow Warrior basketball: Seniors left wanting

By Brian McInnis on March 3, 2019

Jack Purchase came out like a ball of fire. Brocke Stepteau couldn’t miss. And Sheriff Drammeh, hampered by an injury, sucked it up and tried to provide the kind of intangible play he was known for throughout his Hawaii basketball career. And yet, the three Hawaii basketball seniors were unable to will their team to victory on senior night against Cal State Northridge, a young team on the rise as the Rainbow Warriors fall back to the pack. Terrell Gomez […]

Rainbow Wahine basketball: 4 seniors bid farewell

By Brian McInnis on March 2, 2019

UPDATE: The Rainbow Wahine put together one of their best and most well-rounded performances in a 70-55 win over Fullerton. As noted in Saturday’s print edition of the Star-Advertiser, senior night is a big night for the Hawaii women’s basketball team and its four outgoing players. The Rainbow Wahine (11-15, 7-6 Big West) have a chance to redefine the 2018-19 season if they can put something solid together against Cal State Fullerton (13-13, 5-8) in this “White-out” game at 3 […]

VIDEO: UH basketball seniors went from ‘5-O’ to big roles

By Brian McInnis on March 1, 2019

It was the ultimate bit part. A few times a game in the 2015-16 season, the Hawaii reserves would execute a choreographed stunt at the end of the bench, usually to laugh-out-loud effect. The Superman. The Bowling Pins. The Home Run. The group became known as “Hawaii 5-O.” UH basketball’s three outgoing seniors, Jack Purchase, Brocke Stepteau and Sheriff Drammeh, count themselves as “5-O” alums. They play the final home game of their careers 8 p.m. Saturday against Cal State […]
