SEASON HIGHLIGHTS

  • UH finished 20-14 overall for its second consecutive 20-win season. The last time UH had consecutive 20-win seasons was during a three-year run from 2014-16. 

 

  • It was also UH’s seventh straight winning season, one-year shy of the longest streak in program history.

 

  • The ‘Bows captured the inaugural Acrisure Invitational in Palm Springs, Calif., over Thanksgiving weekend with wins over UT Rio Grande Valley and San Diego. Noel Coleman was named tournament MVP. 

 

  • After starting 2-6 in Big West play, UH won nine of its next 12 games to secure the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament and ensure a non-losing regular-season mark for the 12th straight year in the Big West.

 

  • UH advanced to the Big West semifinals for the second time in three seasons after a quarterfinal win over CSUN in Henderson, Nev. 

 

  • A pair of Rainbow Warriors joined elite company when Noel Coleman and Bernardo da Silva each reached 1,000 career points at UH.

 

  • Coleman finished his career ranked seventh all-time at UH in scoring (1,271) and second in three-pointers made (184). Meanwhile, da Silva became just the fifth Rainbow Warrior to exceed both 1,000 points and 600 rebounds for a career. 

 

  • The ‘Bows notched the largest margin of victory ever for UH in a Big West road game and the second-largest ever  in any UH road game with a 29-point win at Cal Poly.

 

  • The ‘Bows scored 90 or more points three times during the season, its first such occurrence in nearly a decade.
