Following a breakout weekend, University of Hawaii outfielder Kamana Nahaku today was named the Big West Conference’s Field Player of the Week.
Nahuku homered in each of the three games against Cal State Northridge this weekend. He tied a school record with three home runs on Sunday, including a two-run drive that capped the Rainbow Warriors’ 10-run ninth inning in a 14-10 victory.
Nahaku’s surge began with a hit in a 2-1 victory over UC Davis on March 24. The next night, he went 3-for-6, including the game-tying, run-scoring single in the ninth in a 9-8 victory over Hawaii Hilo.
