The University of Hawai‘i Warrior football team returns to Aloha Stadium this Saturday after a successful two-week excursion on the mainland. The time was well-spent as the Warriors overcame Louisiana Tech University 45-44 in overtime before making their way to Las Vegas for a 49-14 victory against the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. UH, which is ranked No. 19 in the country, routed Northern Colorado 63-6 at Aloha Stadium before embarking on the 11-day road trip. With a 3-0 start, a first in the June Jones era, Hawai‘i looks to improve to 4-0 on the season, something they have not accomplished since 1988.
The undefeated University of Hawai‘i women's soccer team (5-0-1) leaves the islands for their first road trip of the season against California State-Northridge (1-4-1) and their second ranked opponent of the year, UCLA (3-1-1), who is ranked No. 7 by Soccer Buzz magazine.
After a promising start in the 2007 Western Athletic Conference regular season, the Rainbow Wahine (8-3, 2-0 in the WAC) moved up two spots in the CSTV/AVCA Coaches Top 25 poll. The Rainbow Wahine, now ranked No. 13, set out on Tuesday night for their first road trip of the season and will be playing three matches in the next five days, starting with the Louisiana Tech Lady Techsters on Thursday night.
