University of Hawai'i at Manoa Athletics

They hit some shots early, I think they were 57 percent at halftime and we’re a better defensive team than that from the 3-point line. They did a real nice job. Came out and hit us hard pretty early and give credit to our guys for picking it up and playing our kind of basketball in the last 25-30 minutes of the game.

 

Give the credit to the guys, we didn’t really change anything, they just decided to take it upon themselves and we were gonna play our way. Hiram Thompson, talk about a great kid to lead your team, the kid was a warrior tonight and put us on his shoulders and wouldn’t let us lose the game.

 

We’re gonna see that kid for four years and he’s gonna hit a bunch of three before he leaves us.

 

We were so excited to be in that game, little too pumped and in the first half they were all sucking air and Joston and Bill were winded and tired with the emotion and adrenaline and Trevor (Wiseman) came off and I’ve never seen him tired and he could’ve played three more games. He came in there and spelled those guys and his energy really helped us.
