Before Wednesday, Hawaii had never lost four Big West games in a row. The Rainbow Warriors try to make sure that distinction stops AT four tonight. Cal State Northridge should provide UH (13-9, 4-5 BWC) another prime opportunity at stopping its losing streak. The Matadors (5-19, 2-8) have lost five straight themselves, and got blasted by the ‘Bows by 19 at the Matadome last month. UH is favored by 11.5 points tonight (UPDATE: That’s up to 13). CSUN is the […]

Guess which Big West team owns the longest active winning streak against Hawaii at the Stan Sheriff Center? That would be UC Riverside, tonight’s opponent. Improbably, the down-on-their-luck Highlanders (5-17, 0-8 BWC) look to make it three straight here against the Rainbow Warriors (13-8, 4-4), who’ve hit relative hard times themselves in the last week and a half, having lost three straight. UH is favored by 11. UCR, though, has been without its best player in Dikymbe Martin for the […]

The Rainbow Warriors prevailed in 57-45 in Honolulu last month, in a game only a mother could love (and maybe not even them). Don’t be surprised if it’s a similar contest at Mott Athletics Center, replete with body blows. UH (13-7, 4-3) is favored by four points over CP (7-15, 2-6). Tipoff is at 5 […]

Hawaii will be without its most clutch shot-maker, guard Brocke Stepteau, for tonight’s pivotal Big West game against UC Davis. The winner will likely assume control of first place in the conference, if Long Beach State can hang on to a 17-point halftime lead at home and beat Cal State Fullerton. Stepteau, UH’s fourth-leading scorer at 9.9 ppg, is in street clothes recovering from the finger fracture on his right hand. He’s got the hand wrapped up nice and tight […]
