On the home court of the University of Hawaii at Hilo, the defense rested.
Both of them, actually, but after six consecutive losses, the Vulcans were less concerned about the points they were giving up than they were with the points they were scoring.
UHH topped its high point effort in the Pacific West Conference Thursday night with a 97-92 victory over Fresno Pacific, thanks in no small part to a season high 13 3-point baskets (of 26 attempts), topping the 12 they had earlier in conference play against Hawaii Pacific.
The win was a third in a row this season in the Vulcans’ gym, but more importantly it ended a six-game losing streak they brought home with them from a trip to the mainland.
