College golf: Vuls counting on Littel to play big

Kyeton Littel’s strength through three UH-Hilo golf seasons has been his consistent play.

Never too high, never too low. Steady with the driver, steady with the irons, steady on the greens.

That’s all fine and dandy, but in 2015 he’s got to be the Man for the Vulcans to click.

“We need him to shoot in the 60s,” coach Earl Tamiya said. “We’ve already talked to him about it.

“We’re totally untested. Kyeton needs to pull through.”

Littel, a senior from Maui, finished 23rd at the PacWest championships and qualified for regionals along with Dalen Yamauchi, where he shot 24-over.
