Hawaii women’s volleyball: Middles expand options for Wahine

By Brian McInnis on September 8, 2019

Talk about good problems to have. The Hawaii volleyball team displayed as balanced an attack as it has so far this young season in Sunday’s four-set defeat of previously unbeaten Denver in the Heineken Rainbow Wahine Invitational. With Sky Williams (10 kills, five blocks, tournament MVP) and Tiffany Westerberg (nine kills, .500 hitting) thriving in the middle to complement hitters Jolie Rasmussen, Brooke Van Sickle and Hanna Hellvig, UH had clean looks aplenty against the Pioneers. When UH (6-0) wasn’t […]

AP College Football Poll: No votes yet for Hawaii

By Dave Reardon on September 8, 2019

Hawaii did not receive any votes in the Associated Press Top 25 College Football Poll this week. If you were told that the Warriors beat two Power Five conference teams to start the season and knew nothing else about their schedule, you might think they deserve a ranking. But those two teams, Arizona and Oregon State, are far from the cream of the crop of the Pac-12 — a conference that has been on a down cycle for several years. […]

Hawaii soccer: Nagamine rues late lapses at North Dakota

By Brian McInnis on September 8, 2019

Hawaii was well on its way to a 2-0 start to its three-game road trip through North and South Dakota and within moments of posting a fourth straight clean sheet — which would’ve qualified as the second-longest such streak in program history. Then the Rainbow Wahine hit a considerable snag. UH gave up an 88th-minute equalizer to North Dakota and faltered further in overtime, losing 2-1 to the Fighting Hawks on Sunday afternoon in Grand Forks, N.D. Mimi Eiden scored […]

Here’s what happened in chronological fashion in what became a kickers’ duel. >> HAWAII VS. OREGON STATE PHOTO GALLERY ————— The teams entered […]
