Hawai'i Offense Too Much For No. 10 Pacific in 14-6 Win

Box Score IRVINE, Calif. The fifth-ranked University of Hawaiʻi women's water polo team ended the Barbara Kalbus Invitational on a high note with a 14-6 victory over 10th-ranked Pacific on Sunday morning.
 
With the win, the Rainbow Wahine (11-2) claim fifth place up a highly-competitive tournament that featured the top teams from around the country.
 
Senior All-American Irene Gonzalez tied a career high with six goals to fuel UH's offense. Alba Bonamusa Boix and Maxine Schaap also chipped in with two goals apiece.
 
In goal, freshman goalie Bridget Layburn made eight stops on the day for the 'Bows.
 
After holding onto a 7-4 lead at the half, Hawaiʻi distanced itself from Pacific with a big third-quarter. UH put up four goals in the frame while keeping the Tigers off the scoreboard.  The Rainbow Wahine were able to cruise in the fourth quarter to the eight-goal victory.
 
The 'Bows cap the weekend going 3-1 with wins over No. 13 San Jose State, No. 8 Arizona State and No. 10 Pacific.
 
The next action for UH is March 9 at UC Davis to open Big West play.
