A lot of rebounds could not make up for a lot of missed shots for the University of Hawai’i basketball team in a 62-59 overtime loss to Yale in the championship game of the Outrigger Rainbow Classic.
It was a classic defensive battle that ended in frustration for the Rainbow Warriors. Hawai’i could not convert on its final possession with a chance to win it in regulation, and then also missed twice with a chance to tie it on its final possession in overtime.
“Great game,” Hawai’i head coach Eran Ganot said.
