Why should the final home game of this unique season be any different from the others for the University of Hawai’i basketball team?
In yet another roller-coaster game with an exhilarating finish, the Rainbow Warriors rallied past Long Beach State, 79-76, on Saturday at the SimpliFi Arena at Stan Sheriff Center.
Senior center James Jean-Marie recorded a double-double – 20 points and a season-high 12 rebounds – to lead the Rainbow Warriors to a two-game sweep of the Beach. Three teammates reached double-figure points: Justin Webster with 14 points and eight rebounds, Junior Madut had 13 points and six rebounds, and Casdon Jardine contributed 10 points and five rebounds.
