Ten days ago, the University of Hawai’i basketball team had its ego crushed when previously-winless UC Riverside ran out of the Stan Sheriff Center with an improbable upset victory over the Rainbow Warriors.
Valentine’s Day has come and gone since then, and the Warriors appear to have found their heart. They’ll need it on Saturday, when they try to avenge that loss to the Highlanders in a Big West Conference rematch.
UCR will host Hawai’i at the UCR Student Rec Center at 5:30 p.m. (Hawai’i time). The game will be televised on Fox Sports Prime Ticket (Spectrum channels 228/1228 in Hawai’i).
