Hawaii men’s volleyball: FINAL No. 1 UH 3, No. 5 Lewis 1

By Cindy Luis on January 17, 2020

Thank you Brian McInnis for taking over tonight while I had a commitment in California. Some major Trader Joe’s omiyage coming his way. Here’s the complete box. Close to 1,000 tonight in Carey Arena for the 20-25, 25-23, 26-24, 25-23 UH win. Hawaii used 11 of the 15 on the travel roster. Colton Cowell misses the match with that injury suffered against Harvard (believe it’s a strained calf muscle). Warriors had trouble in serve-receive, gave up 9 aces to the […]

Hawaii men’s basketball: Junior Madut playing catch-up with Rainbow Warriors

By Brian McInnis on January 16, 2020

It’s not as simple as plug and play. Junior Madut is here, with the Rainbow Warriors, at last, and by all accounts he’s been a fruitful addition to the team over the last few weeks. And while you might spot the lithe 6-foot-5 guard in practice or on the Hawaii bench during games, it’s not likely you’ll see him suited up on the court in the immediate future. That’s expected to be the case again for UH (10-6, 1-1 Big […]

Hawaii football: Nick Rolovich officially introduced at Washington State

By Brian McInnis on January 16, 2020

One moment earned applause louder than all the rest at Nick Rolovich’s introductory press conference at Washington State’s Martin Stadium on Thursday afternoon. “Three-one-seven,” Rolovich, the former Hawaii head coach and quarterback, answered to a question about the Apple Cup. He paused dramatically before elaborating, “That’s the number of days until we get to play it.” The Apple Cup is the annual rivalry game between WSU and Washington, which has gone seven straight (and 10 of the last 11) to […]

NCAA men’s volleyball: Hawaii athletic director David Matlin joins expanded selection committee

By Cindy Luis on January 16, 2020

Hawaii athletic director David Matlin has been added to an expanded NCAA men’s volleyball tournament selection committee. This is a good thing, expanding from three to five members. In 2018 when UC Irvine was chosen over Hawaii, the committee members were from UCLA, Ohio State and NJIT. The first two had conflicts of interest since their teams were under consideration. And the brackets that came out ended up favoring UCLA and Ohio State (IMHO). Back then the play-in match wasn’t […]

Hawaii football: 3 Rainbow Warriors assistants travel to Washington State

By Brian McInnis on January 16, 2020

Most of the following appeared on the Honolulu Star-Advertiser’s breaking news. Three members of the Hawaii football team’s coaching staff are in Pullman, Wash., and will be attending today’s news conference to introduce Nick Rolovich as Washington State’s head coach, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser has learned. The news conference is at 12:30 p.m. Hawaii time and is being live streamed and televised on the Pac-12 Networks. On Monday, Rolovich resigned as UH’s head coach. Brian Smith, who has served as the […]

Hawaii football: Nick Rolovich thanks UH, Rainbow Warriors’ fan base

By Brian McInnis on January 15, 2020

In the wake of the breaking news of Nick Rolovich’s hire at Washington State on Monday, he was selective on social media. Quiet, even. Some people wondered if Rolovich would acknowledge those he left behind as he moved on to a bigger, Power Five conference like the Pac-12. It was a topic of conversation on the radio on Wednesday. Wednesday night came the answer. Rolovich tweeted out a thank-you to the University of Hawaii and its fan base. He wrote: […]

Hawaii men’s basketball: Stefan Jankovic joins Noah Allen on G League’s Capital City Go-Go

By Brian McInnis on January 15, 2020

Two of the last Hawaii basketball All-Big West first-teamers were separated by just a year, and still never got to play with each other. Stefan Jankovic and Noah Allen get to now. Jankovic (2014-15, 15-16) and Allen (2016-17) are professional teammates as of this week, as Jankovic was picked up by the Capital City Go-Go of the NBA’s G League. Allen has been with the Go-Go since last year. “It’s crazy because when I signed here I was saying I […]

Hawaii water polo: Rainbow Wahine open season ranked No. 6

By Brian McInnis on January 15, 2020

The Hawaii water polo team opens the 2020 season this weekend with a No. 6 ranking in the country. However, based on the CWPA poll released Wednesday, someone else — No. 5 UC Irvine — is narrowly favored to win the Big West this year. Defending BWC champion Hawaii, which made its first NCAA tournament appearance since 2015 last spring, opens the season with the four-team Rainbow Invite this weekend. It starts with No. 12 Loyola Marymount at the Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic […]
