AP College Football Poll: Hey, have you beaten somebody?

By Dave Reardon on October 6, 2019

You’ve heard it before. People love to tell you your favorite team isn’t any good because, “They haven’t beaten anybody.” But your guys must have beaten somebody, because they’re 6-0. Of course, what they mean is that they haven’t beaten anybody GOOD. But what does “good” mean? Six weeks into the season “good” is in many cases still very, very debatable. And that’s why we have college football polls. So we can agree and disagree about who is good and […]

Hawaii women’s volleyball: Braelyn Akana rises to desperate occasion

By Brian McInnis on October 6, 2019

Another disaster was nigh. Hawaii, which had its foundations rocked by UC Irvine’s reverse sweep of the Rainbow Wahine on Friday night, was on the cusp of falling to another struggling Big West opponent. The Rainbow Wahine were points away from getting swept by Cal State Fullerton, in fact. But the Rainbow Wahine coach Robyn Ah Mow signed an executive order for some emergency relief and got it in a couple of forms on Saturday night. PHOTO GALLERY: HAWAII VS. […]

Hawaii football: A good bye

By Stephen Tsai on October 5, 2019

The Warriors completed their third — and final — practice of bye week with sprints and renewed enthusiasm. “I think the development of the offense is progressing,” associate head coach Brian Smith said after today’s two-hour practice at the Ching Athletic Complex. “You can see that — growing through the second half of the Washington game, then Central Arkansas, then Reno. You’re seeing a progression of confidence … and familiarity and comfort playing together with each other offensively.” This weekend […]

By Brian McInnis on October 4, 2019

UC Irvine coach Ashlie Hain did not call it the biggest win in program history. Not even after her Anteaters beat traditional women’s volleyball powerhouse Hawaii for the first time in 41 meetings.

Hawaii soccer: Ryan scores twice as Wahine dramatically win first Big West opener

By Dave Reardon on October 4, 2019

For the first time ever, the University of Hawaii soccer team can look at the Big West standings and see 1.000 next to its name. The Rainbow Wahine had lost their opener in all seven years of conference membership going back to 2012. UH finally broke that slump Thursday, and in dramatic fashion with a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over Cal State Northridge at Waipio Peninsula Soccer Stadium. The Wahine are 3-6-1 overall. Northridge is 6-4-3. UH broke a four-game losing […]

Hawaii soccer: Wahine seek first result in a Big West opener

By Brian McInnis on October 3, 2019

Big West openers have not gone well for the Hawaii soccer team. Home, away, it has not mattered. Seven losses in seven such games to date, in fact. Last season was the most painful of the bunch, as the Rainbow Wahine gave up a goal with five seconds left in double overtime at UC Irvine — five seconds from getting their first result and a point in the league standings right off the bat. Thus, UH has always played from behind […]
