Drew Buggs scored 20 points and grabbed five rebounds Eddie Stansberry added 15 points and four boards tonight to help Hawai’i pull away from visiting Cal State Fullerton, 70-59, for a much-needed Big West Conference men’s basketball victory.
A Stan Sheriff Center crowd of 3,532 — many wearing pink for breast cancer awareness — watched Justin Webster add 10 points as the Warriors improved to 16-11 overall and 7-6 in the Big West. Johnny Wang scored a game-high 21 points and Jackson Rowe added 13 points to lead the Titans, who fell to 10-18, 5-8.
The win kept UH, which had lost five of its previous six games, in a three-way tie for third place in the clustered Big West standings with only three games remaining.
