Less than 48 hours after its most fabulous win of the young season, the University of Hawai’i basketball team scored a not-so-pretty 58-41 win over Hawai’i Pacific on Sunday.
The common denominator, of course, being a win.
“Happy to get out with a win,” UH acting head coach Chris Gerlufsen said. “We’re never going to give them back. All credit goes to HPU, I thought they came in and they battled us for 40 minutes. They didn’t shoot the ball the way that I know they’re capable of, but I thought they showed tremendous fight.”
A crowd of around 2,500 (5,838 tickets issued) at the Stan Sheriff Center watched the Rainbow Warriors improve to 6-2 with their third straight win.
