What’s Happening

By Gary Dickman. Well, there was one game this past weekend for the University of Hawaii men’s basketball team, and it did result in a win over New Orleans – not the Pelicans, but the Privateers. I know that this wasn’t a ranked opponent. Too often, I hear fans talking about the lack of Top […]

November 25, 2019 This Saturday’s regular season finale against Army at Aloha Stadium will represent a third game against a triple option offense. But unlike the others, the Army offense has much more of a downhill element than either Air Force or New Mexico. They employ the fullbacks far more than the tailbacks. They love […]

The University of Hawaii football team captured its first-ever Mountain West division championship this past Saturday, beating San Diego State, 14-11, at Aloha Stadium. The game turned out to be a defensive battle, and the Rainbow Warriors were up to the task, limiting the Aztecs’ ground game to just 89 yards. On offensive, Hawaii QBs […]

It’s the biggest University of Hawaii football game at Aloha Stadium since Nov. 23, 2007, the night the Rainbow Warriors dethroned Boise State as the Western Athletic Conference champions. Tomorrow night, it’s Hawaii vs San Diego State, with a berth in the Mountain West Conference championship game on the line. At first glance, UH and […]

The University of Hawaii women’s volleyball team celebrates “Senior Night” tomorrow at the Stan Sheriff Center, as the No. 18-ranked Rainbow Wahine host Long Beach State. ESPN Honolulu sat down with the five UH seniors – Bailey Choy, Norene Iosia, Rika Okino, McKenna Ross and Kirsten Sibley – and got their thoughts heading into tomorrow […]

Tua Tagovailoa’s season-injury last Saturday against Mississippi State has rocked the college football world. Here are some reactions from coaches, players and analysts. Tua’s hip surgery has been deemed “successful,” and his long-term prognosis appears to be excellent. Best wishes to Hawaii’s own!   Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban: “Look, you want to be fair […]

November 20, 2019 This Saturday represents a rarity in the MWC. The final conference game of the year for both San Diego State and Hawai’i is a winner take all event for the West division championship. A UH victory would leave the teams tied at 5-3, but Hawai’i would own the tiebreaker against either the […]

Since my last blog, the University of Hawaii men’s basketball team has gone 1-1. Last Friday, the Bows beat Portland State, 83-75. I was in Las Vegas covering the UH-UNLV football game, so I missed it. That did bother me. For me, missing a UH basketball home game rarely happens. I saw that Eddie Stansberry […]

It can be argued that this Saturday’s game between the University of Hawaii and San Diego State is the biggest and most important game for the Rainbow Warriors since the 2008 BCS Sugar Bowl. Saturday’s winner will be crowned the Mountain West Conference’s West Division champion and will go on to face Boise State for […]

The University of Hawaii women’s volleyball team is gearing up for its final two matches of the regular season: Thursday, Nov. 21 vs Cal State Northridge and Friday, Nov. 22 vs Long Beach State. If the No. 18-ranked Rainbow Wahine win one of the two matches, they clinch at least a share of the Big […]
