A University of Hawai’i basketball team that has battled back from adversity countless times already in this amazing season did it one more time on Thursday.
Now the Warriors have a Big West Conference championship to show for it.
Hawai’i clinched the regular-season title and the No. 1 seed for next week’s Big West Conference Tournament with – what else? – a stunning, come-from-behind 67-65 road win over UC Davis.
The victory secures at least a postseason spot in the NIT, with a more-coveted berth to the NCAA Tournament at stake in next week’s Big West Tournament at Anaheim, Calif.
